Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSEDIMENTARY FACIES AND DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENTS OF CENOZOIC SEDIMENTARY FORMATIONS CROPPING OUT AT THE CENTRAL PART OF THE DOUALA BASINBachirou Mfayakouo Chavom, Pierre R. Njike Ngaha, Dieudonné L. BitomThe Douala Basin is one of three units of the Cameroonian coastal basin in the Gulf of Guinea, formed from the east-west extension between African and South American plates generated during the opening of South Atlantic in the Early Cretaceous. This basin contains sediments from Lower Cretaceous to present. The Cretaceous depositional environments are well understood whereas there is very … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2015 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReconstruction of the Depositional Setting of Tortonian Sediments in the Yowi Field, Shallow Offshore Niger Delta, Using Wireline LogsPrince Suka Momta, Minapuye Isaac OdigiWell logs and ditch-cuttings information was used to study the subsurface of the Yowi oilfields, shallow offshore, in the eastern Niger Delta sedimentary basin. The essence of the study was to determine the gross depositional environments of selected and-bodies. Electrofacies trends from gamma ray log and mineral composition of ditch-cutting samples were used to reconstruct the depositional environments in the … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2016 · 7,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHydrogeological Prognosis with Regard to Realisation of the New Colle Di Tenda Road TunnelCinzia Banzato, Massimo Vincenzo Civita, Adriano Fiorucci et al.Problem statement: The doubling of Tenda pass road tunnel jointing SW France to Piedmont (Italy) was planned to penetrate a complicate rock structure in which several complex play an hydrogeologic role including carbonate-Karst aquifer between flysch impervious complexes. The main problem of the project is the presence of an hydraulic circulation feeding a spring of social and economic great importance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetrophysical Properties Distribution Modelling of an Onshore Field, Niger Delta, NigeriaGodwin Omokenu EmujakporueThis research is based on the modelling of petrophysical parameters distribution of an onshore oil field in Niger Delta. The methodology involves the construction of 3-D grids that represent the reservoir geometry, accompany by property modeling where the 3-D grids were populated with petrophysical properties (porosity, water saturation, net to gross ratio, facies and permeability). The objective is to construct … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2017 · 14,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSequence Stratigraphic Analysis from Well Logs of an X-Field, Niger Delta, NigeriaGodwin Omokenu Emujakporue, Alphonsus Joseph EyoThe sequence stratigraphic analysis of the area was studied using well log information in order to determine the lithostratigraphy, chronostratigraphy, possible reservoir sands, age and depositional environment of the study area for opportunities that will support exploration program. The depositional environment penetrated by the wells interpreted from log signatures gave three major facies association. The blocky and coarsening upward (funnel … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Jul 2016 · 13,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeterogeneities and Intra Sand-Body Compartmentalization in Late Oligocene Delta-Front Deposit, Niger Delta, NigeriaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiThis paper presents the study of the heterogeneity in lithofacies, porosity, permeability, mineral grain density, pore-throats sizes and hydraulic rock types and the intra sand-body compartmentalization in cored delta-front deposit of Greater Ughelli depobelt of Niger Delta. Sedimentological study of core samples results in the identification of nine lithofacies and the interpretation of environments of deposition as mainly proximal and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2016 · 8,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeobody Architecture and Petroleum Potential of the Yowi Field, Offshore Eastern Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, Minapuye Isaac OdigiA study on geobody architecture and petroleum potential of the Yowi Field has been carried out by integrating well logs and 3D seismic data. The objectives of this study include: The determination of the lateral continuity of key horizons; identification of gross geobody distribution and architecture; and the petroleum potential of the field. Well log correlation shows that key horizons … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,669 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetrophysical Characterization and Flow Models for Agbada Reservoirs, Onshore Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, John Owate Etu-Efeotor, Charles Ugwu UgwuezeThree selected reservoirs (XB, XC and XE) from three wells (A, B and C) occurring within the Agbada producing sands in part of the Greater Ughelli Depobelt of the onshore Niger Delta have been studied. The study aims at evaluating the petrophysical characteristics of the sand-bodies and also identifies the various flow units present within each reservoir. Petrophysical parameters were … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 21 Oct 2015 · 7,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSedimentology and Depositional Environment of D2 Sand in Part of Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Onshore Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, Jonathan O. Omoboh, Minapuye I. OdigiThe sedimentology and depositional environment of D2 sand in part of the Greater Ughelli depobelt have been studied using well logs and core data. Three wells were correlated to establish the lateral continuity of the D2 sand across the field and standard gamma ray log trends was used to infer depositional environments. Cored section of well B was described to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 19 Sep 2015 · 8,585 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSedimentology and Ichnology of Late Oligocene Delta Front Reservoir Sandstone Deposit, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Niger DeltaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiSedimentological and ichnological study of cored reservoir sands correlated with wireline logs between two wells, 0.8 km distance apart along dip direction, enabled vertical and cross sectional facies variability assessment aimed at determining intra sand-body continuity in longitudinal or down-dip direction; and sub-environments of deposition and factors that controlled depositional processes.
