Petroleum Potential of Appalachian Basin: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1974
The Appalachian basin of the petroleum geologist, the birthplace of the oil industry, covers an area in the eastern United States of about 208,660 sq mi (540,450 sq km), which is divided into the oil-productive Appalachian Plateau segment of 172,000 sq mi (424,300 sq km) and the less favorable, structurally complex Valley and Ridge segment of 45,000 sq

Pennsylvanian marine gastropods from the Appalachian Basin

Journal of Paleontology, 1997
Extensive collections of Pennsylvanian marine gastropods from 20 marine units in the Appalachian Basin contain 227 recognizable taxa. Twenty-two new species and subspecies are recognized includingBellerophon(Bellerophon)laticallis, B.(B.)graphicus varicallis, B.(Pharkidonotus)breyeri, Knightites(Cymatospira)montfortianus discordis, K.(Retispira ...

Plugless Completions Techniques and Evaluation in the Appalachian Basin

SPE/AAPG Eastern Regional Meeting, 2018
Abstract The modern hydraulic fracturing process in unconventional shales has relied mainly on the use of mechanical isolation techniques (frac plugs) for internal isolation in between multi-cluster perforated frac stages. Significant benefits exist if mechanical frac plugs can be successfully eliminated from well completions.

Clay mineralogy of Devonian shales in the Appalachian Basin

Professional Paper, 1981
A study of the clay mineralogy of the Devonian black shales of the Appalachian basin was undertaken to help predict areas for potential gas resources. Illite (2m) recrystallized during diagenesis is more or less uniformly present throughout all shale units.

Prospects for Dually Completed Wells in the Northern Appalachian Basin

SPE Eastern Regional Meeting, 1980
ABSTRACT Application of a dynamic exploration program in conjunction with increased prices and improved production technology can result in the recovery of significant commercial quantities of the natural gas considered to be entrapped in the fractured Devonian Shales in the northern Appalachian basin.

RECENT OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION IN THE NORTHERN APPALACHIAN BASIN

Proceedings of SPE Eastern Regional Meeting, 1977
Abstract Drilling activity has increased in the northern Appalachians in response to the energy shortage and rising well head oil and gas price. In addition to exploitation of remaining known marginal reserves, exploration for reserves in new areas and new zones characterizes the most recent surge in activity.

Industry and Environment in the Appalachian Copper Basin, 1890–1930

Technology and Culture, 1993
Every settled landscape has its own history of the way in which its occupants have interacted with their natural surroundings. In many locations this interaction has resulted in enhancement, while at others it has brought about deterioration.' Thus, all these physical settings have undergone varying degrees of usually permanent change, and some form of

Emplacement of Oil and Gas in Appalachian Basin

1958
Abstract Cradle of the American oil industry, the Appalachian basin originated as a stratigraphic trough whose present deep-buried floor was the ancient Precambrian erosion surface first covered by Cambrian seas. It now holds an intricate series of marine and continental sediments whose deposition followed a fairly constant pattern ...
