Biostratigraphy / Sequence Stratigraphy
Blake Geological Services LLC has over 40 years of experience reviewing
biostratigraphic reports and integrating the data with well logs and seismic
interpretations. Also, we used a sequence stratigraphic approach to identify key
source rock intervals; potential reservoir intervals; and important stratigraphic
gaps in the overall depositional interval.
Biostratigraphic Interpretation
& Integration
-
Ability to increase correlation potential through the review of biostratigraphic reports and the integration of the stratigraphic data with well logs and seismic interpretation
-
Review and re-evaluation of vintage biostratigraphic data from previous analyses
-
Application of high resolution biostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic data allows for the identification of breaks in sedimentation and unconformities and calibration to the sequence stratigraphy
-
Integration of paleobathymetric interpretations from biostratigraphic data with well logs and seismic data to build depositional environmental models
Sequence Stratigraphic
Interpretation & Integration
-
A firm basis for dating seismic surfaces essential for regional correlation
-
sequence Stratigraphic Framework
-
depositional environments
-
identifiy MFS / Condensed Zone
-
identify Key Sequence Boundaries
-
-
Geological record is composed of depositional package bounded by
stratal events
-
Stratal stacking packages result
from interaction of eustatic sea level,
basin tectonics accommodation space,
and sediment supply
Biostratigraphic Data Acquisition & Interpretation
Fossil Range Chart (From BugWare)
Biostrat Summary Chart (From BugWare)
-
Quantitative analyses of benthic and planktonic foraminifera, especially for the western US, predominately onshore and offshore California
-
Foraminiferal Distribution data are delivered in BugWare ™ format. Summary Charts are provide TSCreator ™ software
-
Paleoenvironmental interpretations using a number of statistical methods and integration of benthic foraminiferal with well logs and seismic interpretations
-
Based on networking within the biostratigraphic community, other microfossil disciplines (nannofossils, siliceous microfossils and palynology) can be added to the analysis which provides an integrated biostratigraphic high-resolution regional chronostratigraphic framework that is essential for more accurate age determinations
