University of Oklahoma Graduate College Magnetic UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE MAGNETIC FABRICS AND PALEOMAGNETISM OF NORTH AMERICAN MUDROCKS: RELICS OF COMPLEX BURIAL HISTORIES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By GERHARD HEIJ Norman, Oklahoma 2018 MAGNETIC FABRICS AND PALEOMAGNETISM OF NORTH AMERICAN MUDROCKS: RELICS OF COMPLEX BURIAL HISTORIES A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE CONOCOPHILLIPS SCHOOL OF GEOLOGY AND GEOPHYSICS BY Dr. Richard Elmore, Chair Dr. Roger Slatt Dr. Shannon Dulin Dr. Carl Sondergeld Dr. Eric Ferré © Copyright by GERHARD HEIJ 2018 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements First and foremost, I will be forever indebted to my advisor, Dr. Doug Elmore. Thank you for your guidance and allowing me the freedom to pursue ideas (both good and bad) during my graduate studies. My committee members, Shannon Dulin, Roger Slatt, Eric Ferré and Carl Sondergeld provided invaluable feedback throughout the course of my PhD and I feel privileged to have learned from these scientists. Conversations, access to laboratory equipment and technical assistance from, Mike Engel, Josep Parés, John Pigott, Brett Carpenter, Lynn Soreghan, Mike Soreghan, Bill Heins and Andy Madden was greatly appreciated. Eric Ferré, my master’s advisor ignited my interest in research and I will always be grateful for the lessons I learned under his guidance. I am also deeply grateful for the high-field magnetic experiments he performed on my behalf. I am thankful to Bryan Turner, Jeffrey Hardwick, Matthew Hamilton and Alyssa Wickard whose conversations and intellectual sparring shaped many of the ideas presented in this work. Several undergraduate students worked tirelessly in the paleomagnetic lab, in particular Brandon Maples and Samantha Johnston. I am also thankful for the musical workings of Duran Duran, George Michael, Toto and many others for drowning out the sounds of the magnetometer and other distractions. I will always be appreciative of assistance from my uncle, Wim van der Plas. My parents, Leneke and Gerrit always provided constant love and support throughout this journey. Last, but not least, thanks to my wife, Amanda who supported me, managed my idiosyncrasies and kept me inspired throughout this journey. iv Table of Contents Acknowledgements

    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY GEOLOGY OF THE CRAIG QUADRANGLE, ALASKA By G. D. Eberlein, Michael Churkin, Jr., Claire Carter, H. C. Berg, and A. T. Ovenshine Open-File Report 83-91 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and strati graphic nomenclature Menlo Park, California 1983 Geology of the Craig Quadrangle, Alaska By G. D. Eberlein, Michael Churkin, Jr., Claire Carter, H. C. Berg, and A. T. Ovenshine Introduction This report consists of the following: 1) Geologic map (1:250,000) (Fig. 1); includes Figs. 2-4, index maps 2) Description of map units 3) Map showing key fossil and geochronology localities (Fig. 5) 4) Table listing key fossil collections 5) Correlation diagram showing Silurian and Lower Devonian facies changes in the northwestern part of the quadrangle (Fig. 6) 6) Sequence of Paleozoic restored cross sections within the Alexander terrane showing a history of upward shoaling volcanic-arc activity (Fig. 7). The Craig quadrangle contains parts of three northwest-trending tectonostratigraphic terranes (Berg and others, 1972, 1978). From southwest to northeast they are the Alexander terrane, the Gravina-Nutzotin belt, and the Taku terrane. The Alexander terrane of Paleozoic sedimentary and volcanic rocks, and Paleozoic and Mesozoic plutonic rocks, underlies the Prince of Wales Island region southwest of Clarence Strait. Supracrustal rocks of the Alexander terrane range in age from Early Ordovician into the Pennsylvanian, are unmetamorphosed and richly fossiliferous, and aopear to stratigraphically overlie pre-Middle Ordovician metamorphic rocks of the Wales Group (Eberlein and Churkin, 1970).

  • EVIDENCE of PRESSURE DEPENDENT PERMEABILITY in LONG-TERM SHALE GAS PRODUCTION and PRESSURE TRANSIENT RESPONSES a Thesis by FABIA
    EVIDENCE OF PRESSURE DEPENDENT PERMEABILITY IN LONG-TERM SHALE GAS PRODUCTION AND PRESSURE TRANSIENT RESPONSES A Thesis by FABIAN ELIAS VERA ROSALES Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Approved by: Chair of Committee, Christine Ehlig-Economides Committee Members, Robert Wattenbarger Maria Barrufet Head of Department, Dan Hill December 2012 Major Subject: Petroleum Engineering Copyright 2012 Fabian Elias Vera Rosales ABSTRACT The current state of shale gas reservoir dynamics demands understanding long- term production, and existing models that address important parameters like fracture half-length, permeability, and stimulated shale volume assume constant permeability. Petroleum geologists suggest that observed steep declining rates may involve pressure- dependent permeability (PDP). This study accounts for PDP in three potential shale media: the shale matrix, the existing natural fractures, and the created hydraulic fractures. Sensitivity studies comparing expected long-term rate and pressure production behavior with and without PDP show that these two are distinct when presented as a sequence of coupled build-up rate-normalized pressure (BU-RNP) and its logarithmic derivative, making PDP a recognizable trend. Pressure and rate field data demonstrate evidence of PDP only in Horn River and Haynesville but not in Fayetteville shale. While the presence of PDP did not seem to impact the long term recovery forecast, it is possible to determine whether the observed behavior relates to change in hydraulic fracture conductivity or to change in fracture network permeability. As well, it provides insight on whether apparent fracture networks relate to an existing natural fracture network in the shale or to a fracture network induced during hydraulic fracturing.

Devonian shelf-basin, Michigan Basin, Alpena, Michigan Raymond C Gutschick, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana 46556- 1020 INTRODUCTION This chapter cites two localities, Paxton Quarry and Partridge Point (Fig. 1), and combines field observations from both to illustrate important stratigraphic relations and principles. Focus is on litho- and biostratigraphy of Middle and Late Devonian rocks as they relate to the Michigan Basin (Fig. 2). Black organic-rich shales deserve our attention due to Figure 2. Chart to relate the chrono- and biostratigraphy of the their energy potential a source rocks and fracture rock sequence in the Paxton Quarry and Partridge Point area reservoirs for petroleum and natural gas. The Paxton to standard accepted stratigraphic nomenclature. Chart shows relationship of the Antrim Shale to other widespread Late Quarry offers the opportunity to examine an exceptional Devonian black shale units for parts of the United States and exposure of black shale (large area in Fig. 3; thick Canada.
