Quantification of the Eocene–Oligocene transition in the Zagros Foreland Basin: Palaeogeographic control on sequence architecture and tectonic signal preservation

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2026.
New bio‐sequence framework for the Eocene–Oligocene transition in Zagros. Geochemical data validate basin depth control on SB1 vs. SB2 boundaries. SEM‐EDS analyses confirm subaerial exposure versus continuous deposition. Sensitivity analysis quantifies sub‐10% uncertainty in stratigraphic interpretations. Resolves the Pyrenean orogeny's variable impact

Reservoir heterogeneity in deep marine-continental transitional shales: the role of lithofacies and quality in the coal-bearing longtan formation, central Sichuan basin

Frontiers in Earth Science
Compared with marine shale formations, marine-terrestrial transitional shales exhibit rapid lithofacies changes. This poses significant challenges for the classification of shale lithofacies and the study of their characteristics.

New Insights Into Hikurangi Subduction Inputs and Megathrust Host Rocks Spanning Along‐Margin Changes in Fault Slip Behavior

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The seismic behavior of subduction megathrusts varies spatially and is influenced by the properties of subducting plates, including their sedimentary cover. Characterizing these subduction inputs is essential for understanding the mechanisms behind fault slip variability.

Lithofacies of Upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation in Sichuan Basin and its periphery

Shiyou shiyan dizhi, 2020
The Upper Ordovician Wufeng Formation was divided into the shale and Guanyinqiao sections. Based on the comparative analysis of shale gas drilling cores and the whole rock mineral composition of the Wufeng Formation in the Sichuan Basin and its periphery,

Disentangling palaeoecological and outcrop controls on MISS occurrence in c. 1 Ga fluvio‐lacustrine facies of the Diabaig Formation, Scotland

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 883-913, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The c. 1 Ga Diabaig Formation of north‐west Scotland preserves diverse lacustrine and fluvial facies and abundant microbial and non‐microbial surficial sedimentary features. 172.6 m of section was logged across seven localities to assess the distribution of microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) relative to lithofacies, substrate ...

Advances and trends of non-marine shale sedimentology: A case study from Gulong Shale of Daqing Oilfield, Songliao Basin, NE China

Petroleum Exploration and Development
This study took the Gulong Shale in the Upper Cretaceous Qingshankou Formation of the Songliao Basin, NE China, as an example. Through paleolake-level reconstruction and comprehensive analyses on types of lamina, vertical associations of lithofacies, as ...

Study on the Wettability and Spontaneous Imbibition Characteristics of Lacustrine Shale

Geofluids, 2022
Wettability plays a significant role in the exploration and development of shale oil. The wettability affects the oil enrichment and restricts the selection of fracturing fluids. Shale is composed of complex minerals and organic matter.

Lithofacies and sequence stratigraphic framework of the Kockatea Shale, Dandaragan Trough, Perth Basin [PDF]

The APPEA Journal, 2013
Initial studies affirm large-scale shale-gas potential for the Permo-Triassic intervals of the Perth Basin. The Dandaragan Trough, as a major depocentre in the basin and with the highest number of wells intersecting these intervals, has possibly the greatest shale-gas potential in the area.

Geochemical and Seismic Constraints on the Role of Mud Diapirs in Petroleum Migration and Accumulation in the Recôncavo Basin, NE Brazil

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 433-447, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In the Recôncavo Basin, Northeast of Brazil, mud diapirs have been reported for decades, but their role within the basin's petroleum system remains poorly constrained. Here, we combine 2D seismic interpretation, field observations, and organic geochemical analyses of rocks and oil seeps to investigate the relationship between diapirism and ...

The Messinian Salinity Crisis Between Italy and Albania: The Peri‐Adriatic Depression and Southern Adriatic Basin Records

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March–April 2026.
Basin‐scale correlation of Messinian salinity crisis (MSC) deposits across the Apennine–Albanide foreland basin system integrating outcrop and subsurface data. ABSTRACT We reconstructed the geological evolution of the Albanides during the Messinian salinity crisis (MSC), based on the integration of outcrop and subsurface data from both onshore (peri ...
