Three-Dimensional Numerical Modeling of Eustatic Control On Continental-Margin Sand Distribution

Eustasy constitutes a key control on continental-shelf accommodation along with tectonism. The combined effect of these processes influences relative sea level, which is thought to regulate the locati…

Development of cutoff-related knickpoints during early evolution of submarine channels

Submarine channels are often thought of as having relatively simple geometries, with significant along-channel morphologic and stratigraphic continuity. Using high-resolution seismic reflection data f…

The stratigraphic record of submarine-channel evolution

Submarine-channel systems record basin-margin sediment dispersal and can host signi cant natural resources.We review the facies architecture (i.e., facies heterogeneity and stacking patterns) of outcr…

A new approach for conditioning process-based geologic models to well data

Generating a realistic earth model that simultaneously fits data observed at multiple well locations has been a long-standing problem in petroleum geology. Two insights are offered for solving this pr…

Rapid Adjustment of Submarine Channel Architecture To Changes In Sediment Supply

Changes in sediment supply and caliber during the last ∼ 130 ka have resulted in a complex architectural evolution of the Y channel system on the western Niger Delta slope. This evolution consists of …

Stratigraphic rule-based reservoir modeling

Generating a realistic earth model that simultaneously fits data observed at multiple well locations has been a long-standing problem in petroleum geology. Two insights are offered for solving this pr…
