Wave-dominated delta systems of the Upper Cretaceous San Miguel Formation, Maverick Basin, south Texas Wave-dominated delta systems of the Upper Cretaceous San Miguel Formation, Maverick Basin, south Texas 1980

Upward-coarsening sandstone units of the Upper Cretaceous San Miguel Formation in South Texas were deposited in wave-dominated deltas during minor regressive phases, periodically interrupting a major marine transgression.

Smackover and lower Buckner Formations, south Texas:  depositional systems on a Jurassic carbonate ramp Smackover and lower Buckner Formations, south Texas: depositional systems on a Jurassic carbonate ramp 1981

The Smackover and lower part of the Buckner Formations (Oxfordian) comprise a thick regressive sedimentary sequence deposited on a Jurassic carbonate ramp. Four major depositional systems are recognized: (1) basinal, (2) low-energy open shelf, (3) high-energy shoal, and (4) sabkha.

Depositional systems and oil and gas plays in the Cretaceous Olmos Formation, south Texas Depositional systems and oil and gas plays in the Cretaceous Olmos Formation, south Texas 1986

The Upper Cretaceous Olmos Formation in South Texas continues to be an active exploration target 60 years after oil was first discovered in this clastic assemblage. The shallow, oil-bearing formation was deposited on a broad, wave-influenced shelf. Sand accumulated in two depocenters.
