Organic geochemistry of the Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian, Palo Duro basin, Texas Organic geochemistry of the Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian, Palo Duro basin, Texas 1986

Cores from deep stratigraphic test wells provide an excellent basis for determination of source-rock quality and thermal maturity of potential hydrocarbon source rocks in the Palo Duro Basin. Total organic carbon (TOC) content in Pennsylvanian and Wolfcampian rocks is highest in basinal shales.

Hydrogeochemistry and water resources of the Triassic lower Dockum Group in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico Hydrogeochemistry and water resources of the Triassic lower Dockum Group in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico 1986

Topographically controlled ground-water-basin divides, established during the Pleistocene by erosion of the Pecos and Canadian River valleys, prevent ground-water recharge in the outcrop of the Triassic Dockum Group from entering the confined part of the aquifer in the Dockum Group beneath the So

Fracture analyses of the Palo Duro basin area, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico Fracture analyses of the Palo Duro basin area, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico 1986

Fractures and veins in strata of the Palo Duro Basin area, Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico, are characterized using data from outcrop and core studies and from fracture identification log analysis.

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.
