This book was released on 2012 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mansfield sand is an informally named member of the Pennsylvanian Atoka Formation in Arkansas. Once a productive gas reservoir, the Mansfield is situated in a double plunging anticline in the southern portion of the Arkoma Basin. The formation is internally composed of sandstone units ranging in thickness from tens of feet to over a hundred feet interbedded with shale units ranging in thickness from several tens of feet to hundreds of feet. Previous studies have focused on the stratigraphy of the lower and middle Atoka. A detailed subsurface study of the stratigraphic framework of the Mansfield sand was conducted using conventional lithostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy. Four progradational parasequences have been identified within a highstand systems tract. Deposition of the Mansfield occurred in a deltaic environment on a sandy, fluvial or wave dominated shoreline.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wire line logs are widely used in analysis of the subsurface stratigraphy of the middle Atoka Formation, Central Arkoma Basin, Western Arkansas. SP log, Gamma ray log, resistivity log and conductivity log provide valuable information to construct cross sections. The middle Atoka formation is composed of a succession of shale and sandstone alternations with thickness reaching approximately 3000 feet in the study area. It contains several sandstone units which include Morris, Tackett, Areci, Bynum, Casey and Dunn "A" separated by shale intervals. The purpose of this study is to identify these units and predict sequence stratigraphy and depositional environment by constructing cross-sections, observing wireline logs and associating previous research. Several isopach maps are made, explaining the development of sandstone in target units such as Tackett and Casey. The sequence stratigraphy of the middle Atoka formation is mainly composed of transgressive systems tracts and part of a highstands systems tract. The intervals indicate successive sea-level cycles associated transgression and regression from shallow marine to shoreface. The middle Atoka formation has been proved as a significant exploration target since 1950's. In order to understand geologic setting and find potential reservoirs within the Arkoma basin, it is vital to comprehend the sequence development and depositional environment of the intervals within the middle Atoka.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The east-to-west oriented Arkoma Basin is a peripheral foreland basin or depositional trough that developed during the Carboniferous Period. This formation covers an aerial extent of approximately 33,800 square miles and spans from west-central Arkansas into southeastern Oklahoma (McGilvery, Manger, and Zachry, 2016; Perry, 1995). The Atoka Formation, deposited during the early Pennsylvanian, is the largest Paleozoic formation by aerial extent in the state of Arkansas and is located within and comprises the bulk of Arkoma Basin sediments (McFarland, 2004; Nance, 2018). This formation has been informally divided into three divisions, the lower, middle, and upper, based on their stratigraphic response to differing tectonic processes. A tectonostratigraphic interpretation was made for each division of the Atoka Formation using high resolution cross sections; correlated using well log, seismic, and surface data. Five condensed regional transects were constructed that aided in the development of a cross section "grid" meant to represent the deep marine to shallow marine depositional hinge lines. Each of the three Atoka divisions have a different dominant depositional force. The Lower Atoka deposition was dominated by eustasy, and with sediment supply from the start of Arkoma Basin tectonics, the middle division was dominated by tectonic subsidence and the upper was dominated by sediment supply. The transition between the Atoka divisions and the magnitude of migration between each deep marine hinge line indicates the progradation of the Upper Atoka depositional cycles occurred more rapidly than the retrogradation of the Middle Atoka. The maximum flooding of the formation occurred within the Middle Atoka's uppermost informal member, the Morris Member. The Lower Atoka was deposited on an extensive tectonically stable structural platform, which is supported by no lithostratigraphic transition to deep marine deposits within this project's study area. The deep marine deposition is characterized by shales encapsulating tumultuously distributed and isolated sandstone complexes. These sandstone complexes are not correlated to the shallow marine sandstones by anything but a condensed geologic timeline.

Book Synopsis Subsurface Stratigraphic Interpretation of the Lower Atoka Formation, Northern Arkoma Basin, Arkansas by : William Stephen Denham
Download or read book Subsurface Stratigraphic Interpretation of the Lower Atoka Formation, Northern Arkoma Basin, Arkansas written by William Stephen Denham and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arkoma Basin is a Carboniferous peripheral foreland basin creating a structural depression covering an approximate area of 33,800 miles2 that extends through east-central Oklahoma and west-central Arkansas. The entire basin fill includes Pre-Mississippian carbonate shelf deposits, Mississippian marine carbonates and black shales, and Pennsylvanian mixed carbonated/clastic and shore zone/deltaic deposits. The Lower Atoka formation (Pennsylvanian) occurs in outcrop along the southern Boston Mountain Plateau in northern Arkansas and extends into the subsurface of the Arkoma Basin over an area of 2,300 miles2. The Lower Atoka ranges from 600 to 1500 feet in thickness and represents a cyclic succession of stacked shelf to shore zone/deltaic deposits recording a single 3rd order (1-10 m.y.) Vail/Exxon depositional sequence. It was deposited across a broad, tectonically stable platform along the southern margin of Laurasia just before its collision with the Gondwana and the formation of Pangea at the end of the Paleozoic. Tectonic influences meant that it was not a 100% stable platform during the Lower Atoka deposition. This affected the deposition of all the sequences in the Lower Atoka. Topographic relief on preceding deposition also helped create areas of accommodation space filled by offset, compensation bedding. Finally, subsidence on a passive margin has been argued to be up to almost 4 km. This helps explain the "long distance" shoreline shifts and cyclicity in the current time of deposition. This means that these 4th to 5th order cycles (10's to 100's k.y.) may reflect glacio eustacy and sediment supply and can be correlated across the entire area or a very large area. In addition, there appears to be a tectonic over print that influences onlap edges that define northern limits and areas of bypass and nondeposition.

Book Synopsis Stratigraphy and Structure of a South-trending Structural High, Northern Arkoma Basin, Arkansas by : Yirong Chen
Download or read book Stratigraphy and Structure of a South-trending Structural High, Northern Arkoma Basin, Arkansas written by Yirong Chen and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arkoma Basin is a Carboniferous peripheral foreland basin in southeastern Oklahoma and west-central Arkansas. The formation of the Arkoma Basin is a result of a collision between the North American Plate and the Sabine Terrane. To the north of the basin, there is a structural high that extends southward from the Arkoma Shelf into the basin. This structure is in contrast with the prevailing east-trending strike of structures in the northern margin of the basin and is poorly defined. This paper examined the structure of the salient with stratigraphic and structural cross sections. Across the study area, two NS structural cross sections, three EW cross sections and one EW stratigraphic cross sections were constructed. Strata in the cross sections were divided into three intervals: Morrow I, Atoka I and Atoka II. Analysis of the five structural cross sections certified the existence of the structural high and defined the orientation and magnitude of the structural high. Examination of these three intervals in the stratigraphic cross section revealed no stratigraphic variation in thickness, so the structural high existed after middle Atokan time. The Arkoma Basin subsided at sometime after deposition of the Atoka II unit in northwest Arkansas.

Book Synopsis Initial Structural Subsidence as Reflected in Morrowan and Atokan (Pennsylvanian) Subsurface Stratigraphy, Northern Arkoma Basin, North-Central Arkansas by : Fatimah Taher Nahi Al Asadi
Download or read book Initial Structural Subsidence as Reflected in Morrowan and Atokan (Pennsylvanian) Subsurface Stratigraphy, Northern Arkoma Basin, North-Central Arkansas written by Fatimah Taher Nahi Al Asadi and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arkoma Basin is a carboniferous foreland basin that is known for its prolific gas production. The objective of this research is to study the initial subsidence of the basin by analyzing the strati-graphic and structural features of the study area. This was accomplished through IHS Petra, Surf-er 13, and Win-Tensor software. Field work studies comprised a large part of this study. Also, a seismic profile and Google earth elevation profiles are among the methods used to study the initial subsidence of the Arkoma Basin. The study area within the basin represents a transitional zone from the shelf into the northern portion of the basin. The defining formations in this project are of Morrowan and Atokan age. Within the vicinity of the Arkoma Basin in north-central Arkansas, the stratigraphic analysis confirms a continuous thickening of the Middle Atoka interval south of the study area toward the Ouachita thrust belt, determined through utilizing raster well logs. Furthermore, system tracts were defined for each formation in this study, giving a general overview of the change in sea-level associated with the process of subsidence of the basin. Structural analysis presents distinctive features that dominated the study area. Both the Mulberry and Clarksville master faults are east-west trending normal faults. These master faults are considered to be growth syn-depositional faults, which are the main evidence for tectonic sub-sidence of the basin. Additionally, the area shows a graben feature named Bullfrog Graben that is considered significant evidence for the local flexure loading of the Arkoma basin.
Book Synopsis Stratigraphic and Structural Analysis of Middle Atoka Formation in Aetna Gas Field, Franklin, Johnson and Logan Counties, Arkansas by : Ikramuddin Bahram

This book was released on 2015 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arkoma basin is a prolific natural gas basin. The defining feature of this basin is the Atoka Formation that was deposited in the early-middle Pennsylvanian. The Atoka is held equivalent to the tectonic and structural evolution of the basin. This study focuses on one of the many gas fields in the Arkoma Basin in Arkansas to assess the stratigraphic and structural evolution that the strata in this particular field display. Aetna Gas Field extends from T. 8N. R. 27 W to T. 9 N, R. 27 W and T. 8 N, R. 26 W to 8N, R. 27. Geographically, Aetna field covers parts of Franklin, Johnson and Logan counties. It is one of the pioneer gas fields in the Arkoma Basin. First discovery of gas in Aetna Field was made in March 1928. The first three producing wells were completed in the upper Carpenter and middle Alma sands of the middle Atoka Formation. An analysis of structures and stratigraphy of the gas field through well log correlations reveal a combination trap for the gas. Using IHS Petra, stratigraphic correlations were performed on 49 wells in 10 cross sections. The wells selected were sorted by several criteria. Gamma ray logs were given priority. Stratigraphic tops were determined for correlation purposes. The stratigraphic tops were picked and correlated. The middle Atoka Formation was addressed exclusively for the purpose of this study. Structural analysis indicates an arch-and-trough setting that led to gas accumulation in this field. The stratigraphic analysis confirms a thickening to the south following the general southern thickening trend of Atoka Formation in the Arkoma Basin.
