Play-based assessment of hydrocarbon resources in University Lands reservoirs, Permian Basin, West Texas Play-based assessment of hydrocarbon resources in University Lands reservoirs, Permian Basin, West Texas 2003

Oil and gas resources on University Lands, 2.1 million acres in 19 West Texas counties, constitute a major asset of the University of Texas System. The original oil in place (OOIP) of the 102 major University Lands oil reservoirs is calculated to be 7,520 MMbbl.

Salt-Related Fault Families and Fault Welds in the Northern Gulf of Mexico Salt-Related Fault Families and Fault Welds in the Northern Gulf of Mexico 2003

We classify salt-related faults and fault welds in the northern Gulf of Mexico on the basis of the three-dimensional geometry of the faults, welds, deformed strata, and associated salt bodies.

Hydraulic properties of the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in Texas: information for groundwater modeling, planning, and management Hydraulic properties of the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in Texas: information for groundwater modeling, planning, and management 2003

Use of groundwater-flow models for prediction of future availability of water resources is standard practice. Having accurate hydraulic parameters for input into groundwater-flow models is critical to the generation of realistic local and regional water-resource management plans.

Characterization of bedded salt for storage caverns -- a case study from the Midland Basin, Texas Characterization of bedded salt for storage caverns -- a case study from the Midland Basin, Texas 2000

The geometry of Permian bedded salt in the Midland Basin is a product of the interaction between depositional facies and postdepositional modification by salt dissolution.
