A study of the deeply buried (>10,000 ft [>3,050 m]) Tertiary section in the Gulf of Mexico, which makes use of whole cores from 12 wells in Louisiana and Texas, provides a framework for interpreting depositional origin and demonstrates that relative position within the sequence-stratigraph

Sandstone Architecture of...Shoreface Deltaic and Valley-fill Complexes, Macuspana Basin, Southeastern Mexico Sandstone Architecture of...Shoreface Deltaic and Valley-fill Complexes, Macuspana Basin, Southeastern Mexico 2004

Upper Miocene and Pliocene shoreface and wave-dominated deltaic depocenters in the Macuspana Basin are related primarily to deep-sealed growth faults and large-scale rollover structures associated with shale evacuation.

Structurally complex, heterogeneous, tide-dominated deltaic reservoirs in the Lower Misoa Formation (lower Eocene C members) in the LL-652 area of Lagunillas field in the Maracaibo Basin, Venezuela, have produced 166 million stock-tank barrels (MMSTB) of oil but have a low recovery efficiency of
