Fault‐Controlled Permeability: A Key Parameter in Geothermal Electricity Production Assessment

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geothermal energy is central to the global green energy transition, but its development has long focused on regions with positive thermal anomalies. Through a semi‐quantitative global‐scale review and spatial analysis of 361 geothermal sites, we show that 56.2% of global geothermal electricity production occurs in regions with thermal ...

Prediction of Favorable Sand Bodies in Fan Delta Deposits of the Second Member in Baikouquan Formation, X Area of Mahu Sag, Junggar Basin

Applied Sciences
The prediction of thin-bedded, favorable sand bodies within the Triassic Baikouquan Formation fan delta on the western slope of the Mahu Sag is challenging due to their strong spatial heterogeneity. To address this, we propose an integrated workflow that

Advanced Seismic Sedimentology Techniques for Characterizing Shallow-Water Fan Deltas: Reservoir Architecture and Sedimentary Evolution of the Upper Karamay Formation, Bai21 Area, NW Junggar Basin, China

Applied Sciences
Various glutenite reservoirs, developed by fans, can be found in the Junggar Basin. Among these, there are different interpretations of the glutenite reservoirs formed by shallow-water fan deltas in the Triassic system in the northwestern margin of the ...

Application of Seismic Sedimentology in Identifying Submarine Fan Bodies

Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract The research area is located in the Yenisai Hatanga Basin of Russia, which is a transitional facies sedimentary rock between sea and land. Oil and gas are mostly concentrated in turbidite sand bodies of the low level domain submarine fans of Lower hutt formation in the Lower Cretaceous, and locally developed in the slope fan ...

Seismic Sedimentology for the Characterization of Quaternary Evaporite Facies in Biogas-Bearing Taidong Area, Sanhu Depression, Qaidam Basin, NW China

Applied Sciences
S-wave seismic data are unaffected by natural gas trapped in strata, making them a valuable tool to study evaporite facies comparing to P-wave data. S-wave seismic data were utilized to construct an isochronous framework and analyze evaporite facies by ...

Molluscan Evidence for Slow Subsidence in the Bobotsari Basin during the Plio-Pleistocene, and Implications for Petroleum Maturity

Journal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2015
Integrated studies of the stratigraphy, sedimentology and molluscan paleontology of several late Neogene localities in West and Central Java (Indonesia) showed that deposition took place under marine conditions until early in the Pleistocene in the ...
