Seismic interpretation and sequence stratigraphic analysis of the Bahariya Formation in the South Umbaraka oilfields (Western Desert, Egypt): insights into reservoir distribution, architecture, and evaluation

Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources, 2023
The integration of multiscale datasets, including seismic, well-logs and stratigraphy, is providing a precise picture about reservoir evaluation and spatial distribution.

Modern and ancient tidal sedimentary systems in the era of energy transition: Introduction to the special volume of The Depositional Record

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
This volume examines tidal sedimentary systems through 11 articles, spanning ancient and modern tidalites, technological advances and implications for human management. Highlighting contributions from Tidalites 2022 and beyond, it underscores tidalites' significance in sedimentology, environmental forecasting and energy transition, reflecting decades ...

Fifty years of research on the Joulters ooid sandbody—Impact on carbonate sedimentology and diagenesis and lessons learned from an invaluable analogue

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The Joulters ooid sandbody of northern Great Bahama Bank is a vast expanse of muddy ooid sands partly rimmed by clean ooid sands and formed into a relatively thick layer of significant extent. Knowledge of the development of depositional and diagenetic patterns in the Joulters example has forwarded our general understanding of carbonate sedimentology ...

Orbital-Scale Modulation of the Middle Miocene Third-Order Eustatic Sequences from the Northern South China Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The Miocene Hanjiang Formation (HJF) is a remarkable exploration target in the Pearl River Mouth Basin (PRMB). However, challenges such as bias in current sequence stratigraphic schemes, limitations in high-resolution stratigraphic schemes, and ...

Sequence stratigraphy and uranium mineralization model of uranium-bearing rock series in the southern margin of Erlian Basin

矿业科学学报, 2018
Based on drilling data, seismic sections and sample test results, the theory of continental to sequence stratigraphy was applied to investigate uranium accumulation of the Early Cretaceous uranium-bearing rock series in the southern margin of Erlian ...

Microbialite cathodoluminescence: A tool for investigating palaeoredox conditions, alteration histories and primary textures across time

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Microbialites are common throughout the rock record and key to our understanding of Earth history, yet a relatively common microscopy technique—cathodoluminescence (CL)—has not previously been leveraged to understand them. In this contribution, we examine microbialites of varying ages (modern to Proterozoic) with CL and report on the patterns and ...

Bahaman patch reefs: Numerous and neglected

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Phanerozoic patch reefs are extensively studied because they are abundant and are potential reservoirs for valuable fluids. In contrast, geologic studies of modern reefs have largely focused on platform margins, leaving patch reefs comparatively neglected. What conditions favour patch‐reef development?

Water pathways and ancient lakes: Flowing towards new models to unravel the past

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Significant progress has been made in understanding lake basin evolution through climatic and tectonic changes using sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy, geochemistry, hydrology and watershed characteristics to interpret three main lake basin types: overfilled, balanced‐fill and underfilled, including fluvio‐lacustrine systems.
