Facies Heterogeneity in a Modern Ooid Sand Shoal--An Analog for Hydrocarbon Reservoirs Facies Heterogeneity in a Modern Ooid Sand Shoal--An Analog for Hydrocarbon Reservoirs 1996

The ooid-sand shoals of the Joulters Cays area of Great Bahama Bank were chosen for detailed sedimentologic study to investigate patterns of internal heterogeneity within a modern carbonate sand deposit and to develop criteria for predicting the lateral extent of porous and permeable carbonate gr

Canyon sandstones -- a geologically complex natural gas play in slope and basin facies, Val Verde basin, southwest Texas Canyon sandstones -- a geologically complex natural gas play in slope and basin facies, Val Verde basin, southwest Texas 1995

Canyon sandstones form a prolific low-permeability gas play in the Val Verde Basin of southwest Texas. Exploration and development activity is at a high level, but little published information on Canyon geology is available.

Shallow-seismic evidence for playa basin development by dissolution-induced subsidence on the southern High Plains, Texas Shallow-seismic evidence for playa basin development by dissolution-induced subsidence on the southern High Plains, Texas 1995

The origin of thousands of playa basins on the Southern High Plains of Texas and New Mexico has been attributed to eolian deflation, evaporite or carbonate dissolution and subsidence, piping, or animal activity.
