Sedimentation, depositional environments, and hydrocarbon potential of the Maastrichtian-Paleocene Araromi Formation, eastern Dahomey (Benin) Basin, southwestern Nigeria

DEPOSITIONAL HISTORY AND PALEOGEOGRAPHY OF THE LOWER PALEOCENE REDBEDS IN EASTERN KOPET-DAGH BASIN NORTHEASTERN IRAN

Aspects of Source Rock Evaluation and Diagenetic History of the Akinbo' Shale Eastern Dahomey Basin, Southwestern Nigeria

The Akinbo Formation comprises a sequence of mostly dark, pale-greenish grey, laminated shale, slightly glauconitic shale, sandy shale with subordinate claystone lenses. Selected subsurface samples of the shaly facies as penetrated by Akinside 1582 well in eastern Dahomey basin. were investigated by sedimentological. mineralogical and geochemical parameters to ascertain the hydrocarbon potentia...

Dataset on ground radiometric survey in part of the Eastern Dahomey Basin, SW Nigeria

The dataset for this article contains the measured activity concentration of radionuclides and gamma-radiation dose rate obtained from the radiometric survey in Ota, Ado-Odo Local Government Area, Ogun State, Nigeria. The data were manually collected in fifty (50) locations using the Super SPEC RS-125 spectrometer for about three (3) weeks in January, 2017. The descriptive statistical analysis ...

Pebble Form Indices As Signatures Of The Depositional Environment Of The Benin Formation Along Atamiri River, Uli, South – Eastern Nigeria

The Benin Formation is well exposed along the Atamiri River, which traverses Uli town, in the Niger Delta Basin of Southeastern Nigeria. Lithologic sections were measured, described and sampled so as to decipher the paleodepositional environment, using an integration of lithofacies data, pebble morphology, grain size and paleocurrent analysis. The lithofacies study suggests that the Benin Forma...
