Journal ArticleDOI
Temperate carbonates on a modern, low-energy, isolated ramp; the Balearic Platform, Spain
Joan J. Fornós,Wayne M. Ahr +1 more
TL;DR: This article presented a depositional model for a temperate, low-energy carbonate ramp based on descriptive studies of five areas around the Balearic Islands of Mallorca and Menorca.
Journal ArticleDOI
Present-day temperate carbonate sedimentation on the Balearic Platform, western Mediterranean: compositional and textural variation along a low-energy isolated ramp
Joan J. Fornós,Wayne M. Ahr +1 more
TL;DR: The Balearic Platform as discussed by the authors is an isolated, low-energy, temperate ramp in the western Mediterranean, which is characterized by an oligotrophic, clear water, microtidal environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Upper Jurassic updip stratigraphic trap and associated Smackover microbial and nearshore carbonate facies, eastern Gulf coastal plain
Ernest A. Mancini,William C. Parcell,Wayne M. Ahr,Victor Ramirez,Juan Carlos Llinas,Milo Cameron +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have shown that the current exploration strategy used to find hydrocarbon-productive microbial and high-energy, nearshore carbonate facies in the Upper Jurassic Smackover Formation requires refinement to increase the probability of identifying and delineating these potential reservoir facies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distinguishing Carbonate Reservoir Pore Facies with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Measurements
TL;DR: In this article, a method was proposed to reduce the amount of petrographic analysis needed for porosity typing of carbonate reservoir rocks by decomposing the log(T2) spectrum into at most three Gaussian-shaped components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early diagenetic microporosity in the Cotton Valley Limestone of east Texas
TL;DR: In this paper, a complex diagenetic history of the Cotton Valley Limestone was inferred from crosscutting features observed in thin section and from trace-element and stable-isotope content, including the origin of "chalky" microporosity, especially in ooids.
