Houston, TX – August 12, 2023 – The Mudrock Systems Research Laboratory (MSRL) of the Bureau of Economic Geology at the Jackson School of Geosciences, The University of Texas at Austin, is pleased to announce an upcoming exhibition booth technical presentation by Principal Investigator and Research Associate Professor Toti E. Larson. This presentation will take place at the Ikon Science booth #1017 on August 28th at 3:10 PM, featuring a detailed examination of the facies characterization and reservoir attributes of the Late Pennsylvanian Wolfcamp D, Midland Basin, Texas.
Presentation Overview
Titled “Facies Characterization and Reservoir Attributes of the Late Pennsylvanian Wolfcamp D, Midland Basin, Texas,” this technical talk will highlight recent advancements in understanding the organic matter-rich mudrock, subdivided into the Canyon and Penn-Cisco subunits. The study integrates lithologic core descriptions, high-resolution X-ray fluorescence core scanning, and core-plug analyses within a comprehensive stratigraphic framework established through wireline log correlations. Data from eight cores are integrated, with formation tops for the Strawn, Canyon, and top of Wolfcamp D identified on over 3000 wireline logs across the Midland Basin.
Key Research Objectives
The research aims to deliver a high-resolution facies model for Wolfcamp D across the Midland Basin, providing vital insights for professionals in the energy sector.
Call to Action
Professionals and enthusiasts in the energy industry are invited to join us at the Ikon Science booth #1017 on August 28th at 3:10 PM for this enlightening technical talk. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with the research team and discuss the findings in depth. Following the presentation, MSRL Consortium members are invited to a Happy Hour Reception, fostering networking and collaboration among industry leaders.
