Note on the importance of hydrocarbon fill for reservoir quality prediction in sandstones

open access: yes, 2002
Oil emplacement retarded the rate of quartz cementation in the Brae Formation deep-water sandstone reservoirs of the Miller and Kingfisher fields (United Kingdom North Sea), thus preserving porosity despite the rocks' being buried to depths of 4 km and ...

Critical expansion points: Mechanical signs of surrounding rock instability

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes the Rock Bearing‐Expansion Model (RockBEM) with critical expansion points (CEPs) to quantify post‐peak damage stages in deep‐buried rock masses via plane strain compression test (PSCT). CEP hysteresis&interval ratios reveal bearing performance dynamics and failure severity, advancing mechanistic insights into deep underground rock ...

Petrography and Tectonic Provenance of the Cretaceous Sandstones of the Bredasdorp Basin, off the South Coast of South Africa: Evidence from Framework Grain Modes

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The Cretaceous sandstones of the Bredasdorp Basin were investigated to recognize their composition, provenance, and tectonic setting. Ninety-two samples of sandstones from exploration wells E-AH1, E-AJ1, E-BA1, E-BB1, and E-D3 were investigated using ...

Semi‐analytical solution for the stability of deep vertical shaft considering time‐dependent rock‐structure interaction

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel cavity contraction solution and multilayer shaft wall model were developed to analyze deep shaft stability, considering rock viscosity, support structures, and water pressure, with successful validation through a Hulusu Coal Mine case study.

Dependence of Nonlinear Elastic Parameters of Consolidated Granular Media on Temperature in the Ambient Range

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Hysteretic nonlinear elasticity is often observed in consolidated granular media, including concrete, mortar, sandstones, or rocks. Nonlinearity is frequently quantified using Nonlinear Resonant Ultrasonic Spectroscopy (NRUS), which provides tools to ...

Geochemical history of calcite precipitation in Tertiary sandstones, northern Apennines, Italy. In "Carbonate cementation in sandstones " (S.Morad Ed.)

open access: yes, 1998
In order to better understand the origin and controls of calcite cementation in marine sandstones, we studied ten tertiary lithostratigraphic units exposed in the northern apennines, Italy, which display a variety of pattern of calcite ...

‐bearing sandstones at the Haughton structure, Canada

open access: yes, 2007
From the proceedings of the Workshop on Impact Craters as Indicators for Planetary Environmental Evolution and Astrobiology held in June 2006 in Östersund, Sweden.Impact-metamorphosed CaCO3-bearing sandstones at the Haughton structure have been divided ...

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...
