Petroleum Geomechanics is concerned with rock and fracture behavior in reservoir, drilling, completion and production engineering. In more detail, Geomechanics aims to understand how soils and rocks deform to changes of stress, pressure, chemistry and of temperature. During last several decades, intense research has been conducted to better comprehend the processes that link temperature (T), hydrologic flow (H), mechanical deformation (M), and chemical alteration (C) in fractured rock/soils systems. The study is complex because these processes are strongly . . . → Read More: LGS Luncheon – May 2018 
Abstract:
The Talos Energy Zama #1, the first private-sector exploration well operated in Mexico in 78 years, was drilled in May-July of 2017 in Block 7, offshore Tabasco in 166m water. The Zama structure was identified prior to the leasing round using 3D narrow-azimuth seismic data, and consists of an upthrown fault block with . . . → Read More: LGS Luncheon – April 2018 
Abstract: A reversal in the roles of salt and sediment in the northern Gulf of Mexico: the rare effect of allochthonous salt advancement and inflation on over-pressured sediment Carl Fiduk In almost every basin in the world that contains evaporites, it is the evaporites which get deformed by sedimentation. A typical simple scenario would be . . . → Read More: LGS Luncheon – March 2018 
Abstract: Unconventional Isn’t Easy Trevor Casper The pace of horizontal drilling in onshore plays far outpaces the drilling of conventional vertical and deviated wells in North America. This pace, combined with strategies like pad drilling and early industry and financing comments about “mining” for oil and gas, have contributed to a sense, in some circles, . . . → Read More: LGS Luncheon – February 2018 
Abstract: Title: Airphotos, Satellites, Drones: Helping out Up, Mid, and Downstream David Koger Koger Remote Sensing Fort Worth
Image data—from airplanes, satellites, or drones—are unique, inexpensive, easily used with common computer setups, widely available, and they merge easily with maps and other data. Photogeology has led exploration for over 80 years, adding information where . . . → Read More: LGS Luncheon – January 2018
