Diagenesis and controlling factors of Oligocene Huagang Formation tight sandstone reservoir in the south of Xihu sag, the East China Sea Shelf Basin (2022)
Journal Article
Qian, W., Sun, Q., Jones, S. J., Yin, T., Zhang, C., Xu, G., …Zhang, B. (2022). Diagenesis and controlling factors of Oligocene Huagang Formation tight sandstone reservoir in the south of Xihu sag, the East China Sea Shelf Basin. Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 215, Article 110579. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.petrol.2022.110579

Considerable amounts of efforts have been made in search of depositional sand quality and diagenetic processes on the quality of low-permeability and tight reservoirs mainly due to the realization that these multiple factors exert profound controls o...

Impact of Grain-Coating Clays on Porosity Preservation in Paleocene Turbidite Channel Sandstones: Nelson Oil Field, UK Central North Sea (2022)
Journal Article
Bello, A., Jones, S., J *Gluyas, J., & G Al-Ramadan, K. (2022). Impact of Grain-Coating Clays on Porosity Preservation in Paleocene Turbidite Channel Sandstones: Nelson Oil Field, UK Central North Sea. Minerals, 12(5), Article 555. https://doi.org/10.3390/min12050555

The Forties Sandstone Member is an important deep-water reservoir in the Central North Sea. The role of depositional characteristics, grain-coating clays, and diagenesis in controlling the reservoir quality of the sandstones is poorly understood. The...

Petrographic and diagenetic investigation of the distal Triassic ‘Budleighensis’ fluvial system in the Solway and Carlisle Basins for potential CO2 storage (2022)
Journal Article
Marsh, J., Jones, S., Meadows, N., & Gluyas, J. (2022). Petrographic and diagenetic investigation of the distal Triassic ‘Budleighensis’ fluvial system in the Solway and Carlisle Basins for potential CO2 storage. Petroleum Geoscience, 28(3), 2021- 2065. https://doi.org/10.1144/petgeo2021-065

Failure to find hydrocarbon prospects in the Solway Basin region has resulted in a lack of research into the local Sherwood Sandstone Group petrography, reservoir quality and depositional history compared to the analogous southern reservoirs in the E...

Ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) investigations of a large‐scale buried ice‐marginal landsystem, Skeiðarársandur, SE Iceland (2022)
Journal Article
Harrison, D., Ross, N., Russell, A. J., & Jones, S. J. (2022). Ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) investigations of a large‐scale buried ice‐marginal landsystem, Skeiðarársandur, SE Iceland. Boreas: An International Journal of Quaternary Research, 51(4), 824-846. https://doi.org/10.1111/bor.12587

The sedimentary record of Icelandic ice-contact environments provides critical insights into past glacier margin dynamics and position, relative sea level, and the geomorphic processes that drive the evolution of proglacial environments. This importa... Read More about Ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) investigations of a large‐scale buried ice‐marginal landsystem, Skeiðarársandur, SE Iceland.

Experimental Simulation of Burial Diagenesis and Subsequent 2D-3D Characterization of Sandstone Reservoir Quality (2022)
Journal Article
