Reservoir quality prediction of deeply buried tight sandstones in extensively faulted region: A case from the middle-Upper Jurassic Shishugou Group in central Junggar Basin, NW China (2018)
Journal Article

The reservoir quality of tight sandstones is generally determined by the depositional environment, burial depth and diagenesis. However, the relationship between reservoir quality of tight sandstones and the controlling factors are very complicated....

Passive, continuous monitoring of carbon dioxide geostorage using muon tomography (2018)
Journal Article

Carbon capture and storage is a transition technology from a past and present fuelled by coal, oil and gas and a planned future dominated by renewable energy sources. The technology involves the capture of carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel po... Read More about Passive, continuous monitoring of carbon dioxide geostorage using muon tomography.

Geothermal Potential of the Global Oil Industry (2018)
Book Chapter

There are around 40 new geothermal power projects commissioned in each of the last few years. Growth of the market is around 5% annually and current installed capacity is about 13,300 MW with about the same in development in 24 countries. These figur...

Tight oil sandstones in Upper Triassic Yanchang Formation, Ordos Basin, N. China: Reservoir quality destruction in a closed diagenetic system (2018)
Journal Article

An investigation of the Triassic Yanchang Formation, Ordos Basin, N. China, revealed that the diagenesis and quality of tight oil sandstone reservoirs (with an average porosity of 9.83% and an average permeability of 0.96 mD) were controlled by a clo...

Diagenetic and geochemical studies of the Buchan Formation (Upper Devonian) in the Central North Sea (2018)
Journal Article

The Upper Devonian Buchan Formation reservoirs in the UK Central North Sea are litharenite/sublitharenite and were deposited in fluvial–aeolian settings. The grain-coating clays in the aeolian sandstones have effectively inhibited quartz overgrowth....

Porosity preservation due to grain coating illite/smectite: Evidence from Buchan Formation (Upper Devonian) of the Ardmore Field, UK North Sea (2018)
Journal Article

The Buchan Formation sandstone reservoirs from the Ardmore Field in the UK Central North Sea are fluvial-aeolian deposits and provide examples of porosity preservation in deeply-buried reservoirs (2.7–3.2 km) caused by grain-coating illite/smectite (...

Argyll Field: the first oil field to be developed on the UK Continental Shelf (2018)
Book Chapter

In June 1975, oil from the Argyll Field became the first to be produced from the UK North Sea. Seventeen years later, the Argyll Field was abandoned with all production facilities removed. In 2001, two new companies, Acorn Oil & Gas and Tuscan Energy... Read More about Argyll Field: the first oil field to be developed on the UK Continental Shelf.
