This study examines the geochemical record of diagenesis in the Middle Permian Yates shelf, exposed in Slaughter Canyon, New Mexico. This diagenetic history significantly modified lithologies, depositional fabrics, and pore systems. Early diagenesis was dominated during sea level highstands by marine cementation and reflux dolomitization, and during sea level lowstands by meteoric cementation a...

Underground flow paths (UFP) often play an important role in the illustration of geological data by geologists, especially illustrating and revealing stratigraphic structures, which can help domain experts their exploration petroleum information. In this paper, we present a new immersive visualization tool to better illustrate data. We use method based on bit-array-based 3-D texture represent O...

Undiscovered, conventional oil and gas resources were assessed in the Senegal Province as part of the U.S. Geological Survey World Petroleum Assessment 2000 (U.S. Geological Survey World Energy Assessment Team, 2000). Although several total petroleum systems may exist in the province, only one composite total petroleum system, the CretaceousTertiary Composite Total Petroleum System, was defined...
