  • Tectonic Setting of the Lower Fernie Formation
    Tectonic setting of the lower Fernie Formation: insights from subsidence analysis Tannis McCartney*, Department of Geoscience, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada [email protected] and Andrew Leier, Department of Geoscience, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada Introduction In this study, the Fernie Formation in west-central Alberta is informally divided into upper and lower Fernie. The lower Fernie contains the Nordegg, Gordondale, Red Deer, Poker Chip and Rock Creek Members. These are separated from the Upper Fernie shales by many unconformities, simplified here as a single regional unconformity (Figure 1). Figure 1: Simplified stratigraphic column of the Fernie Formation. In this study, the Fernie Formation is divided into the Upper Fernie (shales) and the lower Fernie (Rock Creek, Poker Chip Shale, and Nordegg). The unconformities separating the Upper Fernie from the lower Fernie are here represented as a single, regional unconformity. The Nordegg and Gordondale Members of the Fernie Formation were deposited during the early stages of tectonic loading in the Cordillera to the west. These members, along with the Poker Chip and Rock Creek Members, were studied to look for evidence of this tectonic activity in the sedimentary record. The results give new insights into current understandings of the lower Fernie Formation. Theory and Method Tectonic subsidence measures the tectonically controlled vertical movement of a basin. Calculating the amount of tectonic subsidence the basin has undergone involves accounting for sediment compaction, paleobathymetry, sea-level changes and post-depositional sediment compaction. GeoConvention 2012: Vision 1 In basin analysis, tectonic subsidence plotted on a depth vs. age chart is used to classify the type of basin the sediments were deposited in.

  • Falher and Cadomin Diagenesis and Implications for Reservoir Quality Nicholas B
    Falher and Cadomin diagenesis and implications for reservoir quality Nicholas B. Harris Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alberta Summary The Barremian – Aptian Cadomin Formation and the Lower Albian Falher Member of the Spirit River Formation of northwestern Alberta are both are significant hydrocarbon reservoirs in the deep basin part of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. Equivalents of parts of the Lower and Upper Mannville of central and eastern Alberta (Hayes et al., 1994), these units are characterized by intervals of coarse sediments, notably including conglomerates, because of their proximity to the Cordilleran Uplift to the west. A series of regressive Falher tongues extending north and northeast into the basin have been designated A through at least F, with a Falher G identified and described by Zonneveld and Moslow (2004); these are sandwiched between finer grained basinal sediments of the Wilrich Member. The coarse tongues of Falher sediment are interpreted as strandline and shoreface deposits (Caddel and Moslow, 2004). While Cadomin lithogies are similar, depositional environments are interpreted as alluvial fan deposits derived from the Cordillera, locally reworked by a northward-flowing paleo-Spirit River. In both formations, porosity and permeability values are generally low. Falher porosities are rarely greater than 15% at depths of 1700 to 2000 metres and rarely greater than 8% at depths of 2500 to 3000 metres. Porosities in this Cadomin dataset range from 0 to 8%from 2400 to 2900 metres burial depth. Permeabilities are generally less than 10 mD at depths of 2400 to 3000 meters but may are locally as high as 1000 mD at 1700 to 2000 metres in the Falher.

  • Petroleum Geochemistry of the Lower Cretaceous
    Petroleum Geochemistry of the Lower Cretaceous Mannville and Jurassic Ellis Groups, Southern Alberta, Canada Kim Manzano-Kareah *, Shell International Exploration and Production, Houston, USA [email protected] The variation of oil quality in southern Alberta, Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, Canada is primarily due to differences in oils generated from different source rocks and biodegradation of oils in reservoirs. 280 oil samples were collected and analysed by GC and GC-MS, in order to assess the nature and extent of these petroleum systems. Oils from Lower Cretaceous Mannville and Jurassic Ellis Group reservoirs in southern Alberta, Canada (T1-40; R1-25W5) were generated from at least five different source rocks. The proven/probable source rocks include: the Devonian Duvernay Formation (Family D), the Devonian-Mississippian Exshaw Formation (Family E), a probable Paleozoic source (Family M), a probable Jurassic source (Rierdon/Fernie shales; Family F), and the Cretaceous Ostracod Zone (Family Q). Family D oils are restricted to the northernmost part of the study area (Provost field). Biodegradation and the mixing of degraded with non-degraded oils are the main factors controlling the variation in oil quality within a given family. The much improved understanding of oil families and degree of biodegradation allow for more accurate mapping of likely oil migration pathways. Known reservoir trends, subcrop edges, structure, hydrodynamics, the distribution and quality of known oil pools can all be integrated into mapping migration paths. This allows for more accurate mapping of likely oil and gas migration pathways, which can be used for prospect risking and for the ranking of exploration plays.

They are particularly important in strata of lacustrine, brackish, or restricted marine environments in which rapidly evolving leperditiid ostra­ codes, eurypterids, and phyllocarids may occur to the exclusion of other distinctive faunal elements.

  • Revised Correlation of Silurian Provincial Series of North America with Global and Regional Chronostratigraphic Units 13 and D Ccarb Chemostratigraphy

Lethaia,Vol.44, pp. 185–202. Recent revisions to the biostratigraphic and chronostratigraphic assignment of strata from the type area of the Niagaran Provincial Series (a regional chronostratigraphic unit) have demonstrated the need to revise the chronostratigraphic correlation of the Silurian System of North America. Recently, the working group to restudy the base of the Wen- lock Series has developed an extremely high-resolution global chronostratigraphy for the Telychian and Sheinwoodian stages by integrating graptolite and conodont biostratigra- 13 phy with carbonate carbon isotope (d Ccarb) chemostratigraphy. This improved global chronostratigraphy has required such significant chronostratigraphic revisions to the North American succession that much of the Silurian System in North America is cur- rently in a state of flux and needs further refinement. This report serves as an update of the progress on recalibrating the global chronostratigraphic correlation of North Ameri- can Provincial Series and Stage boundaries in their type area.
