Paleokarst coastal caves at Torricelle Hills (Lessini Mountains, Venetian Prealps, Italy) [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2023
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 ...

Examples of Paleokarst in Mesozoic Carbonate Formations in the Carpathian Foreland Area

open access: yesEnergies
A paleokarst system developed in the Upper Jurassic–Lower Cretaceous carbonate complex has been recognized in the Carpathian Foreland area. Well logs testing and core data as well as an acoustic imager, a microresistivity scanner and six-arm dipmeter ...

Tectono-Sedimentary Evolution of the Madrid Basin (Spain) during the Late Miocene: Data from Paleokarst Profiles in Diagenetically-Complex Continental Carbonates [PDF]

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
An intra-Vallesian (Upper Miocene) paleokarst developed at the top of the Intermediate Miocene Unit in the continental intracratonic Madrid Basin is recognized.

Paleokarst features and reservoir distribution in the Huanglong Formation of eastern Sichuan

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2011
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.

Geo-modelling of paleokarst reservoirs - from cave-survey to geocellular paleokarst model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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.

Reconstructing large‐scale karst paleogeomorphology at the top of the Ordovician in the Ordos Basin, China: Control on natural gas accumulation and paleogeographic implications

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2019
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]

open access: yes, 2021
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 ...

Influence of sediments burying the discharge area of a karst aquifer on the groundwater flow field—Numerical testing of conceptual models

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 37, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
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

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica, 2022
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 ...
