Hydrodynamic analysis of the Early Cretaceous aquifers in the Barrow Sub-basin in relation to hydraulic continuity and fault seal

Hydrodynamic analysis of the Early Cretaceous aquifers in the Barrow Sub-basin in relation to hydraulic continuity and fault seal

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: A.L. Hennig, J.R. Underschultz & C.J. Otto

Contemporary Stresses in the Timor Sea: Implications for Fault-trap Integrity

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: S.D. Mildren, R.R. Hills, T. Fett and P.H. Robinson
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: July 1994

 

Abstract:

Borehole breakouts are zones of elliptical wellbore cross-section caused by compressional shear failure of the wellbore wall. In vertical wells the long axis of breakout ellipses is parallel to the minimum horizontal contemporary stress direction. Dr...

Timing of Hydrocarbon Migration into the Admiral bay Fault Zone, Canning Basin

Timing of Hydrocarbon Migration into the Admiral bay Fault Zone, Canning Basin

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: Stuart McCracken
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: July 1994
