Abstract Waterflooding has been practiced as a secondary recovery mechanism for many years with no regard to the composition of injected brine. However, in last decade, there an interest understand impact water and low salinity waterflooding (LSWF) oil recovery. LSWF investigated through various laboratory tests promising method improving carbonate reservoirs. These experiments showed diverse m...

In order to facilitate the search for new play concepts and exploration opportunities, a sequence stratigraphic synthesis of Cenomanian–Turonian interval Arabian Plate has been compiled. The is based on published datasets which have analysed within temporal framework constrained by biostratigraphy isotope stratigraphy. high resolution allows palaeogeography study area be mapped 3rd depositional...

Evidence of volcaniclastic sedimentation occurs in the first depositional sequence sedimentary succession Amantea Basin. Volcaniclastic deposits are intercalated upper part a sandstone formation and these show maximum thickness about 8 m. The Basin is Neogene depozone located along Tyrrhenian margin Calabria whose onset started during Upper Serravallian. source volcano to materials had have bee...

The rift section of the Brazilian basins represent sedimentary record associated with first stages Gondwana break-up in Early Cretaceous phase (Berriasian to Aptian). succession Campos Basin constitutes one main petroleum systems Brazil’s marginal basins. This interval contains source rock and important reservoirs Lagoa Feia Group deposits. is characterized by siliciclastic, carbonate evaporite...

The upper Miocene Chagres Formation, cropping out along the Caribbean coast of Panama, has been previously interpreted as record last deep-water connection between and Pacific oceans based on bodyfossil paleodepth estimates. We test this interpretation by presenting an integrated ichnological sedimentological analysis eight coastal localities Formation (Toro Limestone Sandstone members). Toro M...

The Neoproterozoic Quruqtagh Group in eastern Chinese Tianshan consists of, in ascending order, the Bayisi, Zhaobishan, Altungol, Tereeken, Zhamoketi, Yukkengol, Shuiquan, and Hankalchough Formations. Diamictite units occur in the Bayisi–Altungol, Tereeken, and Hankalchough Formations. Our field observations confirm the glacial origin of the Tereeken and Hankalchough diamictites, but the glacia...

A detailed geochemical study and a sequence stratigraphic interpretation have been conducted on a sedimentary sequence of the Upper Cretaceous La Luna Formation, in a section outcropping in the eastern ̄ank of the Middle Magdalena Basin (MMB), Colombia. The goals were to evaluate geochemical variability related to lithofacies and organic facies changes, characterize depositional environment and...
