Evaporite calcitization within the Castile Formation of the Delaware Basin is more widespread and diverse than originally recognized. Coupled field and GIS studies have identified more than 1000 individual occurrences of calcitization within the Castile Formation outcrop area, which includes both calcitized masses (limestone buttes) and laterally extensive calcitized horizons (limestone sheets)...

High graphitization is responsible for low-resistivity shale development with poor reservoir quality. This paper provides an explanation of organic matter and determines the impact high graphite content on quality at Wufeng-Longmaxi Formation in Southern Sichuan Basin. Fine veins are frequently developed samples Ro > 3.5%, graphitized 25%, resistivity < 5 Ω•m, which dominated by three min...

Multiple episodes of dolomitization the shallow marine carbonates Late Kingriali Formation resulted in regional scale mappable dolostone geobodies Kohat and Potwar sub-basins. With exception few unaltered patches host limestone, more than 90% studied formation are diagenetically altered by replacive dolomites with associated dolomite cementation. Petrographical geochemical data interpretation r...
