Characteristics of Gravity Flow Deposits in the Benin Basin (Benin) and Implications for Oil and Gas Exploration

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the underexplored Benin Basin features a narrow shelf and steep slope, which promoted the development of multi‐phase, stacked channel‐lobe complexes. These gravity flow deposits, further enhanced by bottom current reworking, reveal a significant undiscovered Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic play with considerable petroleum ...

Bryozoan‐Rich Carbonate Units of the Erfoud Area (SE Morocco) Record Latest Katian to Early Hirnantian Interglacial Intervals

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we re‐examine the depositional architecture of the Erfoud limestone in Morocco. Introducing new biostratigraphic constraints from chitinozoan assemblages, we show that Katian to Hirnantian bryozoan‐pelmatozoan meadows reflect flooding events linked to a series of interglacial transgressions known to have occurred immediately prior to the

Facies and sequence stratigraphy of the tamet formation (middle eocene), eastern sirte basin, Libya [PDF]

, 1995
The middle Eocene Tamet Formation on the eastern side of the Sirte Basin, is largely shallow-marine carbonate platform-to-basin transition formed along passive margin.

Miocene to Quaternary Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Northern Section of the Burdur‐Fethiye Shear Zone, South‐Western Türkiye

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
New zircon ages reveal that lacustrine sedimentation initiated in the Late Miocene (Messinian), revising earlier Pliocene age assignments. The study results support the interpretation of the northern BFSZ as a broad left‐lateral transtensional shear zone rather than a discrete sinistral fault or simple extensional graben array.

Carbonate facies, diagenesis and sequence stratigraphy of an eocene nummulitic seservoir interval (jdeir formation), offshore NW Libya [PDF]

, 2006
This study investigates the sedimentology, petrology and depositional environments of a major Early Eocene nummulitic reservoir unit: the Jdeir Formation, from offshore NW Libya in the Mediterranean Sea. This formation is a prolific hydrocarbon-producing

Ichnology of the Rhätsandstein in the Exter Formation (Triassic), Germany

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Trace fossils from the Rhätsandstein of southern Germany record repeated colonization of high‐energy shallow‐marine substrates before the Triassic–Jurassic transition. The assemblage reflects environmental and preservational controls on ichnodiversity.

Characteristics of ultra-deep shale reservoir of marine-continental transitional facies: a case study of lower member of Upper Permian Longtan Formation in well Y4, Puguang Gas Field, northeastern Sichuan Basin

Shiyou shiyan dizhi, 2022
In order to explore the characteristics of marine-continental transitional shale reservoir under overburden conditions, studies of organic geochemistry, mineral composition, parameters of pore structure and physical properties of shale in well Y4 of the Upper Permian Longtan Formation in the Puguang exploration area of northeastern Sichuan Basin were ...

Late Quaternary lake filling and drying in northern Australia's largest freshwater lake

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lake Woods, Jurrkulu, is northern Australia's largest freshwater lake filled today in strong Indo–Australian summer monsoons (IASM) to maximum depths of ~5 m. On the western margins of the lake, two large arcuate ridges occur 20 to 40 m above the lake floor and inset within these are other mid‐elevation lake deposits, such as depositional ...

Formation conditions and the main controlling factors for the enrichment of shale gas of Shanxi Formation in the southeast of Ordos Basin, China

Journal of Natural Gas Geoscience, 2023
Based on the dissection of the geological characteristics of typical shale gas wells, the relationship between reservoir-forming factors and shale gas enrichment is deeply analyzed, and the controlling factors of shale gas enrichment are summarized.

Climate‐modulated accumulation and erosion of sediments in the Rodderberg crater basin for the last 439 ka (East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial/interglacial climate cycles since marine isotope stage (MIS) 12 influenced the discontinuous and 73 m‐long sediment record from the volcanic crater of Rodderberg in the East Eifel Volcanic Field, Germany. High‐resolution grain size and geochemical data have been valued by numerical dating techniques (radiocarbon and luminescence dating,
