TL;DR: The Pennsylvanian Jackfork Group in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas and Oklahoma has been interpreted by many workers, including as mentioned in this paper as a classic flysch sequence dominated by turbidites in a submarine fan setting; however, normal size grading and Bouma sequences are essentially absent in these sandstone beds.
Abstract: The Pennsylvanian Jackfork Group in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas and Oklahoma has conventionally been interpreted by many workers, including us, as a classic flysch sequence dominated by turbidites in a submarine fan setting; however, normal size grading and Bouma sequences, indicative of turbidite deposition, are essentially absent in these sandstone beds. They appear massive (i.e., structureless) in outcrop, but when slabbed reveal diagnostic internal features. These beds exhibit sharp and irregular upper bedding contacts, inverse size grading, floating mudstone clasts, a planar clast fabric, lateral pinch-out geometries, moderate to high detrital matrix (up to 25%), sigmoidal deformation (duplex) structures, and contorted layers. All these features indicate sand mplacement by debris flows (mass flows) and slumps. Mud matrix in these sandstones was sufficient to provide cohesive strength to the flow. Discrete units of current ripples and horizontal laminae have been interpreted to represent traction processes associated with bottom-current reworking. The dominance of sandy debris-flow and slump deposits (nearly 70% at DeGray Spillway section) and bottom-current reworked deposits (40% at Kiamichi Mountain section), and the lack of turbidites in the Jackfork Group have led us to propose a slope setting. Our rejection of a submarine fan setting has important implications for predicting sand-body geometry and continuity because deposits of fluidal turbidity currents in fans are laterally more continuous than those of plastic debris flows and slumps on slopes. A turbidite-dominated fan model would predict an outer fan environment with laterally continuous, sheetlike sandstones for the Jackfork Group in southern Oklahoma and western Arkansas, whereas a debris-flow/slump model would predict predominantly a slope environment with disconne ted sandstone bodies for the same area.

TL;DR: The path of seawater 87 Sr 86 Sr during the Mississippian, Pennsylvanian and Permian is estimated based on 228 analyses as discussed by the authors, which are largely from the southern interior of the U.S.A., where rocks of this age are widely exposed.

19 Feb 1988TL;DR: An integrated refining scheme for hydroprocessing high boiling fractions such as gas oil and catalytically cracked cycle oils to produce premium quality distillates, especially jet fuels and naphthas suitable for reforming into high octane gasoline is presented in this paper.
Abstract: An integrated refining scheme for hydroprocessing high boiling fractions such as gas oil and catalytically cracked cycle oils to produce premium quality distillates, especially jet fuels and naphthas suitable for reforming into high octane gasoline. In addition, unconverted, high boiling fractions suitable for processing by conventional refining techniques into high quality, low pour point lube base stocks are obtained. The integrated hydroprocessing comprises a first stage hydrocracking step employing an aromatic selective hydrocracking catalyst based on a large pore size acidic component such as amorphous alumina or silica alumina or a large pore size zeolite such as zeolite X or zeolite Y. The hydrocracking may be operated either in a naphtha directing mode under conditions of moderate to high severity or under conditions of low to moderate severity to produce a relatively higher proportion of product boiling in the middle distillate range. The unconverted fraction from the hydrocracking step is passed to a second step in which it is hydroprocessed over a zeolite beta catalyst with additional hydrogenation-dehydrogenation functionality. In this stage, the paraffins remaining in the feed are attacked by the zeolite beta to form isoparaffins and conditions may be controlled to favor hydroisomerization over hydrocracking so as to increase the yield of middle distillate product, especially of highly isoparaffinic jet fuels and diesel fuel.

21 Feb 1975TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to remove metal and sulfur contaminants from residual oil fractions by catalytic contact with an improved catalyst comprising the oxides or sulfides of a Group VIB metal and an iron group metal supported on an alumina that contains dispersed Delta and/or Theta phase alumina.
Abstract: This invention is concerned with removing metal and sulfur contaminants from residual oil fractions by catalytic contact with an improved catalyst comprising the oxides or sulfides of a Group VIB metal and an iron group metal supported on an alumina that contains dispersed Delta and/or Theta phase alumina, the catalyst having at least 45% of its pore volume in pores 30 to 150A diameter, at least 10% of its pore volume in pores less than 30A diameter, and at least 15% of its pore volume in pores greater than 300A diameter. The process can be used to prepare feedstock for catalytic cracking.
