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 2012-12-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 28 (thesis year 1 983) a total of 10,661 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 197 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 28 reports theses submitted in-1983, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
Book Synopsis The Shelf to Basin Transition and Tectonostratigraphy of the Atoka Formation (lower Pennsylvanian) in the Arkoma Basin, Northwest Arkansas by : Travis Gibson White
Download or read book The Shelf to Basin Transition and Tectonostratigraphy of the Atoka Formation (lower Pennsylvanian) in the Arkoma Basin, Northwest Arkansas written by Travis Gibson White and published by . 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.

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.
Book Synopsis Structure and Stratigraphy of a Complex Anticlinal Feature, Backbone Anticline, Arkoma Basin, Arkansas by : Shailyn Marie Abbott

This book was released on 2014 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arkoma Basin of Arkansas and Oklahoma formed in the Ouachita foreland during the late Mississippian and Pennsylvanian periods (about 290- to 330 million years ago). The basin developed in response to convergent tectonic boundaries that closed obliquely from west to east associated with Ouachita orogenic event. The Backbone anticline in the northern Arkoma Basin is a prominent product of this convergence, and represents the first major component of this study. The structure is asymmetric with beds on the southern limb dipping steeply to the south. It is also expressed topographically as a prominent ridge that trends eastward from the Oklahoma-Arkansas border approximately 30 miles. The ridge is bounded on the northern side by a steeply dipping normal fault with most of the sedimentary exposure occupying a position on the southern hanging wall of the structure. Strata involved in the structure are sandstone and shale units from the middle and upper part of the Atoka Formation. A recent road cut in southern Sebastian County, Arkansas exposes a complete and continuous section of more than 600 feet in thickness through an upper Atoka sandstone unit along the Backbone anticline. A subsurface stratigraphic study of the middle of the Backbone anticline was also conducted. Several normal and some reverse faults were noted from cross-sections of the subsurface using IHS PETRARTM software program. The upper 5400 feet of the Atoka Formation includes intervals from the middle and upper part of the formation. This interval extending from the Casey Sand to the Upper Alma Formation was examined by means of three cross-sections prepared from wire line logs to determine the role of faulting in the sedimentary section

This book was released on 2019 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moorefield Shale represents the Meramecian Series in the Eastern Arkoma Basin in northern Arkansas. Lying on the margin of the Mississippi Embayment and Reelfoot Rift, sequence stratigraphic interpretations have labelled the Moorefield Shale a lowstand wedge succeeding the Early Mississippian (Osagean) Boone Limestone conformably and overlain conformably by the Hindsville Limestone/Batesville Sandstone. The unit contains a basal brown-black limestone and succeeding brown-black phosphatic shale. The Moorefield Shale was deposited along the broad, stable cratonic platform on the southern flank of Laurasia, before it's collision with Gondwanaland to form the supercontinent Pangea at the end of the Paleozoic. During this time, the midcontinent region was covered by shallow seas and carbonates covered most of the region. A shallowly dipping carbonate ramp developed in the region providing a foundation for clastic sediment deposition. The Boone Limestone underlies the Moorefield Shale throughout the eastern Arkoma Region however, the Boone carbonate sediment was transported from its origin on the Burlington Shelf in the northwestern part of Arkansas, and thicknesses of the Boone Limestone significantly decrease to the south and east. Thinning of the Boone Limestone has allowed greater accommodation space for succeeding formations in the eastern Arkoma Basin, and has allowed the Moorefield Shale to be considerably thicker in the east. Thicknesses of the Moorefield Shale measure to approximately 100 feet in outcrop, and 350 feet or greater in the subsurface. Due to the lack of research, the Moorefield Shale offers a unique perspective into the stratigraphy and deposition of Mississippian units of the eastern Arkoma Basin.
