A Comparison of Screening Methods for Assessing Legacy Wells Within CO2 Storage Licences: Application to Offshore Norway

open access: yesGreenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 746-757, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Legacy wells represent a critical consideration for offshore CO2 storage projects, as they may provide potential pathways for fluid or gas migration if poorly constructed, undocumented or inadequately abandoned. Systematically assessing large numbers of legacy wells remains challenging due to heterogeneous data availability and the diversity ...

Subduction Recycling and Closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean in the Beishan Orogen: Constraints From the Niujuanzi Ophiolitic Mélange and Associated Intrusions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Ophiolitic mélanges and associated intrusions provide key archives for reconstructing the evolution of ancient ocean basins and subduction‐related mantle modification. The Hongliuhe–Niujuanzi–Xichangjing ophiolitic mélange in the central Beishan Orogen preserves important records of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean, but the timing of oceanic subduction ...

Subsurface Hydrocarbon Biodegradation in the Context of Microbial Habitability and Hydrogeologic, Thermal, and Geologic Evolution of the Colorado Plateau

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Subsurface microbial ecosystems associated with hydrocarbon reservoirs are shaped by temperature, salinity, redox gradients, and fluid flow. However, the drivers of microbial activity and hydrocarbon biodegradation over geologic timescales remain poorly constrained.

1D Basin Modelling of Upper Jurassic to Upper Cretaceous Source Rocks in the Southern Pletmos Sub‐Basin, Outeniqua Basin, Offshore South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 1382-1411, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Pletmos sub‐basin in the Outeniqua Basin, offshore South Africa, is divided by the Superior, Pletmos and Plettenberg faults into northern and southern depocentres. In this study, geological and organic geochemical data together with 1D basin modelling were used to investigate the burial, thermal and maturation histories, and the timing of ...

Outcrop and subsurface characterisation of a mixed tidal and wave‐influenced coastline (Triassic Red Beds, SE Spain)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2381-2416, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Paralic depositional systems are complex and heterogeneous sedimentary environments, presenting challenges for predicting reservoir architecture and connectivity. Their stratigraphic and facies variability arises from the dynamic interplay between fluvial, tidal and wave processes, and their sensitivity to sea‐level fluctuations, sediment ...

Cenozoic tropical carbonate platforms in the Santos Basin, SE Brazilian Margin

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2454-2487, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Tropical carbonate platforms accompanied the latitudinal shifts of the tropical belt throughout the Cenozoic. Their flat‐topped geometries were influenced by a specific set of processes, including climate and sea‐level changes, carbonate facies, tectonics and continental runoff.

Evidence for the continental origin of Pliocene deposits in the central Baja California peninsula, Mexico, and implications for controls on biodiversity

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2488-2518, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

Porosity Preservation in Deeply Buried (8500 m) Jurassic Calcareous Mudstones of the Vienna Basin (Austria)

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 306-313, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Significant porosity of more than 5% was found at depths of more than 8500 m in poorly sorted, calcareous mudstones of the Malmian Mikulov Formation. These overpressured rocks are the main hydrocarbon source rock in the Vienna Basin. Core samples from present‐day depths of 8150 m to 8550 m were analysed using X‐ray diffraction and scanning ...
