Book Synopsis The Permian of Northern Pangea by : Peter A. Scholle
Download or read book The Permian of Northern Pangea written by Peter A. Scholle and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Permian was a remarkable time period. It represents the maximum stage of Pangean continental assembly, includes a major global climatic shift from glacial to nonglacial conditions (icehouse-greenhouse transition), and is ter minated by one of the most profound faunal/floral extinction events in the Earth's history. In addition, Permian oceans, although poorly understood, must have had some quite unique characteristics. Permian seas reached the most extreme values of carbon, sulfur, and strontium isotopic ratios ever achieved in Phanerozoic time, and the isotopic ratios of all three elements abruptly returned to more "normal" values at, or very close to, the Permo Triassic boundary. Finally, the Permian is marked by an abundance of important sedimentary mineral resources. It has large fossil fuel concentra tions (coal, oil, and natural gas), enormous phosphate reserves, and very extensive evaporite deposits, including gypsum, anhydrite, and halite, as well as a variety of potash salts. Study of the Permian has been hampered, however, by a number of factors. These include a scattered geologic literature (presented in a variety of languages), a confusing regional and global stratigraphic framework (based, in part, on inadequate type sections), and largely provincial, often poorly correlatable faunas. All have contributed to the sparsity and inadequacy of overviews of this critical geological interval. The two volumes attempts to bring together some of the widely scattered observations about these fascinating rocks, at least for the northern (pre dominantly nonglacial) parts of Pangea.

Book Synopsis Carbonate Reservoirs by : Clyde H. Moore
Download or read book Carbonate Reservoirs written by Clyde H. Moore and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-08-12 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overarching diagenetic drive during progressive burial of carbonate rocks is toward the loss of porosity through mechanical and chemical compaction (the latter consisting of pressure solution plus related cementation). The passive margin diagenetic regime is marked by relatively rapid burial with steadily rising temperatures and pressures. Once a mechanically stable grain framework is achieved, the effective stress from sediment loading can eventually suffice to cause chemical compaction. Early cementation, the presence of organic frameworks, overpressuring, dolomitization, and especially the filling of reservoir pores with oil all act to retard the onset and efficiency of chemical compaction. Aggressive pore fluids, the presence of metastable mineral phases, and admixtures of siliciclastics or other insolubles tend to accelerate the process. Catagenesis of organic matter in source rocks yields aggressive formation waters capable of calcite dissolution just prior to hydrocarbon maturation. But despite evidence of local late secondary porosity generation, theoretical considerations lead to the conclusion that such evidence represents limited and local porosity rearrangement. Hydrocarbon-filled deep carbonate reservoirs experience progressive loss of porosity with increasing depth, due to precipitation of pyrobitumen as circumgranular linings, and also—during very deep burial—by renewed precipitation of calcite cement (with carbon derived from destruction of methane) and resumption of mechanical and/or chemical compaction. The active margin diagenetic regime is characterized by rapid movement of large volumes of warm-to-hot basinal fluids, mobilized by tectonism, through complex subsurface conduits. Reactions between expelled fluids and conduit carbonates include recrystallization of earlier dolomites and calcites, replacement dolomitization, dissolution of calcite, dolomite and/or evaporites, and sulfide mineralization. Ascending hydrothermal fluids associated with wrench faults and rifting may result in fault-localized leaching of calcite, dolomitization, and dolomite cementation capable of creating or enhancing “hydrothermal dolomite” reservoirs. The most abundant diagenetic product is saddle dolomite. The postorogenic diagenetic regime is characterized by topographically driven meteoric recharge into deeply buried aquifers. There is minimal impact on carbonate porosity unless meteoric waters are dissolving anhydrite/gypsum. Where this occurs, a chemical drive can promote dissolution of dolomite and precipitation of calcite, accompanied by porosity enhancement. In the absence of evaporite dissolution, meteoric waters equilibrate with carbonate aquifers and minimal porosity modification occurs downstream. Crossplots of porosity versus thermal maturity appear to possess porosity predictive capability. Carbonate reservoirs are relatively prone to souring at depth; hydrocarbons in sour reservoirs can be partially or entirely consumed by destructive redox reactions with sulfur in the forms of H2S and S0. The initiation and extent of these reactions depend upon the availability of reactant sulfur (from evaporites and organosulfur compounds) and dissolved iron (derived from Fe-rich siliciclastics, if proximal).
Book Synopsis Hypogene Karst Regions and Caves of the World by : Alexander Klimchouk
Download or read book Hypogene Karst Regions and Caves of the World written by Alexander Klimchouk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 911 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illustrates the diversity of hypogene speleogenetic processes and void-conduit patterns depending on variations of the geological environments by presenting regional and cave-specific case studies. The cases include both well-known and newly recognized hypogene karst regions and caves of the world. They all focus on geological, hydrogeological, geodynamical and evolutionary contexts of hypogene speleogenesis. The last decade has witnessed the boost in recognition of the possibility, global occurrence, and practical importance of hypogene karstification (speleogenesis), i.e. the development of solutional porosity and permeability by upwelling flow, independent of recharge from the overlying or immediately adjacent surface. Hypogene karst has been identified and documented in many regions where it was previously overlooked or misinterpreted. The book enriches the basis for generalization and categorization of hypogene karst and thus improves our ability to adequately model hypogene karstification and predict related porosity and permeability. It is a book which benefits every researcher, student, and practitioner dealing with karst.

Book Synopsis Carbonate Sedimentology by : Maurice E. Tucker
Download or read book Carbonate Sedimentology written by Maurice E. Tucker and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-07-17 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbonate rocks (limestones and dolomites) constitute a major partof the geological column and contain not only 60% of the world'sknown hydrocarbons but also host extensive mineral deposits. Thisbook represents the first major review of carbonate sedimentologysince the mid 1970's. It is aimed at the advanced undergraduate -postgraduate level and will also be of major interest to geologistsworking in the oil industry. Carbonate Sedimentology is designed to take the readerfrom the basic aspects of limestone recognition and classificationthrough to an appreciation of the most recent developments such aslarge scale facies modelling and isotope geochemistry. Novelaspects of the book include a detailed review of carbonatemineralogy, non-marine carbonate depositional environments and anin-depth look at carbonate deposition and diagenesis throughgeologic time. In addition, the reviews of individual depositionalsystems stress a process-based approach rather than one centered onsimple comparative sedimentology. The unique quality of this bookis that it contains integrated reviews of carbonate sedimentologyand diagenesis, within one volume.
Book Synopsis Carbonate Reservoirs by : Clyde H. Moore
Download or read book Carbonate Reservoirs written by Clyde H. Moore and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2013-08-12 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2nd Edition of Carbonate Reservoirs aims to educate graduate students and industry professionals on the complexities of porosity evolution in carbonate reservoirs. In the intervening 12 years since the first edition, there have been numerous studies of value published that need to be recognized and incorporated in the topics discussed. A chapter on the impact of global tectonics and biological evolution on the carbonate system has been added to emphasize the effects of global earth processes and the changing nature of life on earth through Phanerozoic time on all aspects of the carbonate system. The centerpiece of this chapter—and easily the most important synthesis of carbonate concepts developed since the 2001 edition—is the discussion of the CATT hypothesis, an integrated global database bringing together stratigraphy, tectonics, global climate, oceanic geochemistry, carbonate platform characteristics, and biologic evolution in a common time framework. Another new chapter concerns naturally fractured carbonates, a subject of increasing importance, given recent technological developments in 3D seismic, reservoir modeling, and reservoir production techniques. Detailed porosity classifications schemes for easy comparison Overview of the carbonate sedimentologic system Case studies to blend theory and practice
