The discrimination of fluid content and lithology in a reservoir is an important characterization that has a bearing on reservoir development and its management. For the unconventional reservoirs, such as shale gas formations, besides other favorable considerations that are expected of them, it is vital that reservoir zones are brittle. Brittle zones frac better and fracing of shale gas reservo...

Microgastropod fauna from the Upper Devonian Cephalopod Bed and overlying Lower Tournaisian strata of the original reference section of the Shishtu Formation have been examined. Twenty genera and one unknown genus have been identified. The original aragonite shells have been replaced either by pyrite or fluorapatite

Recently developed methods for inferring abrupt changes in data series enable such change points in time or space to be identified, and also allow us to estimate noise levels of the observed data. The inferred probability distributions of these parameters provide insights into the capacity of the observed data to constrain the geophysical analysis and hence the magnitudes, and likely sources, o...

Abstract We evaluate the Cretaceous stratigraphy and carbon sequestration potential of northern Baltimore Canyon Trough (NBCT) using >10,000 km multi-channel seismic profiles integrated with geophysical logs, biostratigraphy, lithology from 29 offshore wells. identify map six sequences resolved primarily at stage level. Accommodation was dominated by thermal non-thermal subsidence, thoug...

In order to study the surface settlement characteristics of an overlying soft soil layer in a subway tunnel under seismic loading, ABAQUS finite-element analysis software was utilized. Taking construction Dalian Metro Line 5, which is located intensity zone Ⅶ and has layer, as engineering background, El-Centro Kobe waves representing class Ⅱ site waves, well artificial wave with exceedance prob...

The body surface potential distribution in two infants with myocardial infarction secondary to anomalous origin of the left coronary from the pulmonary artery demonstrated: (1) the persistence of a minimum in the area overlying the infarct during inscription of the prominent Q wave in V6, and, (2) the presence of a terminal maximum in an adjacent area overlying the infarct. The terminal maximum...
