Bouguer gravity Atlas of Texas, Big Spring sheet Bouguer gravity Atlas of Texas, Big Spring sheet 1986

This folded transparent map is at the same scale as its corresponding Geologic Atlas of Texas (GAT) sheet and can be superimposed on it to compare gravity information with surface geology.

Controls on porosity and permeability of hydrocarbon reservoirs in Lower Tertiary sandstones along the Texas Gulf Coast Controls on porosity and permeability of hydrocarbon reservoirs in Lower Tertiary sandstones along the Texas Gulf Coast 1986

Examination of porosity and permeability (reservoir quality) data, as determined by whole core, acoustic log, and petrographic analyses of lower Tertiary sandstones along the Texas Gulf Coast, made it possible to delineate areas most favorable for development of hydrocarbon reservoirs.

Lower Miocene (Fleming) depositional episode of the Texas coastal plain and continental shelf: structural framework, facies, and hydrocarbon resources Lower Miocene (Fleming) depositional episode of the Texas coastal plain and continental shelf: structural framework, facies, and hydrocarbon resources 1986

The Fleming Group and its basinward equivalents constitute the stratigraphic record of one of the major Cenozoic depositional episodes of the northern Gulf Coast Basin. The depositional sequence representing the episode is bounded above by the Amphistegina B shale and below by the Anahuac shale.

Investigation of underpressuring in the deep-basin brine aquifer, Palo Duro basin, Texas Investigation of underpressuring in the deep-basin brine aquifer, Palo Duro basin, Texas 1985

Although plots of pressure versus depth are useful for understanding the hydrodynamics of ground-water systems, they can be difficult to interpret.

Depositional history, facies analysis, and production characteristics of hydrocarbon-bearing sediments, offshore Texas Depositional history, facies analysis, and production characteristics of hydrocarbon-bearing sediments, offshore Texas 1985

Large areas of offshore Texas remain unexplored even though sedimentary facies and structural traps favor the generation and accumulation of hydrocarbons.
