Paleokarst coastal caves at Torricelle Hills (Lessini Mountains, Venetian Prealps, Italy) [PDF]
This paper describes a set of paleokarst caves at Torricelle Hills near Verona (Southern Alps, Italy.) At this locality, erosional surfaces and paleokarst cavities show that sedimentation of late Paleogene neritic limestones was interrupted by subaerial ...

Paleokarst features and reservoir distribution in the Huanglong Formation of eastern Sichuan
The identification markers of paleokarst have been described in detail and include a combination of surface geology, drilling data and the isotopic characteristics of carbon, oxygen and strontium.

Karstification in carbonate successions has an important influence on hydrocarbon accumulation. Taking the Ordos Basin, currently the largest petroliferous basin in China, as an example, this study examines the large‐scale, long‐term (~120 Myr ...

Paleokarst reservoir modelling - A concept-driven approach [PDF]
A significant proportion of the world's hydrocarbon production comes from paleokarst reservoirs. Although these reservoirs boast some of the most productive wells in oil history, the recovery factor is relatively low (RFmean: 32%) compared to other carbonate reservoirs (RFmean: 37 - 51%).

Geo-modelling of paleokarst reservoirs - from cave-survey to geocellular paleokarst model [PDF]
Hydrocarbon reservoirs exhibiting features inherited from former karst processes acting on the reservoir rocks are relatively common worldwide. However, on the Norwegian continental shelf, paleokarst plays have only recently been identified in the Barents Sea.

Based on analysis of outcrop, drilling, logging and seismic data, and geotectonic background, the lithofacies paleogeography and paleokarst geomorphology of the Middle Permian Maokou Formation in the northwestern Sichuan Basin were reconstructed, and the

The study's simulations reveal that sediment coverage has a significant impact on karst aquifer drainage. A thin layer of highly permeable sediments can considerably reduce conduit outlet discharge, while an impervious sediment cover can completely block the outlet, potentially leading to the emergence of new conduits and springs.

Research progress of paleokarst oil and gas reservoirs
The transformation of soluble rocks by paleokarst can form dissolution pores and other reservoir spaces. Especially for carbonate rocks, the development of paleokarst can greatly improve the reservoir performance of the formation and form karst ...

Abstract A new Old World trident bat (Rhinonycteridae) is described from an early Miocene cave deposit in the Riversleigh World Heritage Area, northwestern Queensland, Australia. Living rhinonycterids comprise a small family of insect‐eating, nasal‐emitting rhinolophoid bats from Africa, Madagascar, Seychelles, the Middle East, and northern Australia ...

Microgravity Monitoring in Fractured‐Vuggy Carbonate Reservoirs
With the development of Tahe Oilfield entering the high water cut stage, gas channeling occurs in fractured‐vuggy system during nitrogen injection, resulting in some inefficient wells. To improve the development effect of gas flooding, how to define the distribution of fracture, vuggy, and remaining oil has become one of the urgent problems to be ...
