Abstract:
Abstract Textural and chemical heterogeneities in igneous quartz crystals preserve unique records of silicic magma evolution, yet their origins and applications are controversial. To improve our understanding of quartz textures and their formation, we examine those in crystal-laden rhyolites produced by the 74 ka Toba supereruption (>2800 km3) and its post-caldera extrusions. Quartz crystals in these deposits can reach unusually large sizes (10–20 mm) and are rife with imperfections and disequilibrium features, including embayments, melt inclusions, titanomagnetite and apatite inclusions, spongy morphologies, hollow faces, subgrain boundaries, multiple growth centers, and Ti-enriched arborescent zoning. Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative analyses (petrography, CL, EBSD, X-ray CT, LA-ICPMS), we determine that those textures commonly thought to signify crystal resorption, crystal deformation, synneusis, or fluctuating P–T conditions are here a consequence of rapid disequilibrium crystal growth. Most importantly, we discover that an overarching process of disequilibrium crystallization is manifested among these crystal features. We propose a model whereby early skeletal to dendritic quartz growth creates a causal sequence of textures derived from lattice mistakes that then proliferate during subsequent stages of slower polyhedral growth. In a reversed sequence, the same structural instabilities and defects form when slow polyhedral growth transitions late to fast skeletal-dendritic growth. Such morphological transitions result in texture interdependencies that become recorded in the textural-chemical stratigraphy of quartz, which may be unique to each crystal. Similar findings in petrologic experimental studies allow us to trace the textural network back to strong degrees of undercooling and supersaturation in the host melt, conditions likely introduced by dynamic magmatic processes acting on short geologic timescales. Because the textural network can manifest in single crystals, the overall morphology and chemistry of erupted quartz can reflect not only its last but its earliest growth behavior in the melt. Thus, our findings imply that thermodynamic disequilibrium crystallization can account for primary textural and chemical heterogeneities preserved in igneous quartz and may impact the application of quartz as a petrologic tool.

Abstract. Snowpack models simulate the evolution of the snow stratigraphy based on meteorological inputs and have the potential to support avalanche risk management operations with complementary information relevant for their avalanche hazard assessment, especially in data-sparse regions or at times of unfavorable weather and hazard conditions. However, the adoption of snowpack models in operational avalanche forecasting has been limited, predominantly due to missing data processing algorithms and uncertainty around model validity. Thus, to enhance the usefulness of snowpack models for the avalanche industry, numerical methods are required that evaluate and summarize snowpack model output in accessible and relevant ways. We present algorithms that compare and assess generic snowpack data from both human observations and models, which consist of multidimensional sequences describing the snow characteristics of grain type, hardness, and age. Our approach exploits Dynamic Time Warping, a well-established method in the data sciences, to match layers between snow profiles and thereby align them. The similarity of the aligned profiles is then evaluated by our independent similarity measure based on characteristics relevant for avalanche hazard assessment. Since our methods provide the necessary quantitative link to data clustering and aggregating methods, we demonstrate how snowpack model output can be grouped and summarized according to similar hazard conditions. By emulating aspects of the human avalanche hazard assessment process, our methods aim to promote the operational application of snowpack models so that avalanche forecasters can begin to build an understanding of how to interpret and trust operational snowpack simulations.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In the Fahud field of Oman, the integration between hierarchies of sequence stratigraphic units and fracture systems has proven to be crucial to explain the distribution of flow and mechanical units. The study focused on the Upper Cretaceous, Albian to Lower Cenomanian Natih e unit (Natih Formation, Wasia Group), a 170-mthick carbonate sequence/reservoir, which exhibits heterogeneities in both facies and reservoir quality. Based on a core-derived high-resolution sequence stratigraphic analysis, the Natih e reservoir can be subdivided into four orders of depositional cycles (from 6th- to 3rd-order). Each cycle consists of a transgressive and regressive hemicycle with characteristic facies and rock properties. The facies and diagenetic overprint of the higher-order cycles vary according to their position within the 3rd-order sequences. Analysis of core, borehole images, seismic, tracer and production data indicate a hierarchy of fractures and faults that seems to follow the stratigraphic subdivisions. A relationship between depositional and diagenetic architecture of the cycles, and the aforementioned data, led to the identification of mechanical layering and stratigraphy within the reservoir. This finding was validated and supported by the successful history match of the three-phase production data within the dynamic model of the reservoir. The combination of sequence and mechanical stratigraphy provides a framework for the correlation of facies and mechanical units across the field. Furthermore, the facies and mechanical units are related to reservoir quality and fracture distribution for consistent upscaling into large-scale reservoir models. Through close co-operation between geologists and reservoir engineers utilising dynamic data, it was possible to determine the most appropriate scale for flow and ensure that such a scale was then used as input for dynamic modelling and for planning of the future exploitation of the Fahud field. As a result of this study, Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) has evaluated a 20% increase in risked reserves, and a 25% reduction of well costs.

Abstract:
Macrostratigraphy is the study and statistical analysis of sediment packages that formed continuously at a specified scale of temporal resolution and that are bound by gaps recognizable at that same scale. The temporal ranges of gap-bound packages, compiled separately for different geographic locations, permit area-weighted, survivorship-based measures of rock quantity and spatio-temporal environmental continuity to be measured. Analytical basin fill models suggest that the parameters controlling sedimentation and sequence stratigraphic architecture, such as base level and sediment supply, can be detected quantitatively by macrostratigraphy.Macrostratigraphic analysis of the marine sedimentary rock record in the United States at a temporal resolution of ~106 years reproduces most of the well-known Sloss sequences, but it also identifies two prominent megasequences, the Paleozoic and Modern megasequences, which are separated by a Permian-Triassic discontinuity and Phanerozoic minimum in rock quantity. Many short- and long-term features of the macroevolutionary history of marine animals are reproduced by macrostratigraphy, including 1) many patterns in genus richness, 2) patterns in rates of genus extinction and, to a lesser degree, rates of origination, and 3) patterns of extinction selectivity and the shifting relative richness of Sepkoski's Paleozoic and Modern evolutionary faunas. The extent to which macrostratigraphy reproduces the macroevolutionary history of marine animals transcends what is expected by geologically-controlled sampling biases. Instead, the processes which control the spatio-temporal dynamics of shelf sedimentation, including expansions and contractions of shallow epicontinental seas, have probably exerted a consistent influence on the macroevolutionary history of marine animals. Exploring the common cause hypothesis by putting fossils back into rocks and rocks into a new quantitative framework for physical environmental change holds considerable promise for paleobiology.

Abstract:
Earth’s sedimentary successions are an archive of past climatic and tectonic events and sea level changes by recording the complex interactions between those processes across a wide range of time and space scales. Numerous efforts have been made to decipher this archive to obtain signatures of deep Earth dynamics (e.g. dynamic topography induced by mantle flow). However, it remains a challenge as the signals generated by dynamic topography are usually concealed by signals generated by plate tectonic processes. Sequence stratigraphy is an effective tool to analyse sedimentary units. Recently, quantitative stratigraphic analysis has been used to achieve more precise interpretations, which will likely advance the quantification of the role of controlling factors in shaping stratigraphic record. This thesis consists of two parts. The first part presents stratigraphic modelling using the surface process code pyBadlands and quantitative stratigraphic interpretations based on two well-established techniques: the trajectory analysis and the accommodation succession methods. This numerical framework contributes to the development of quantitative sequence stratigraphy which is an important component of “sequence stratigraphy 2.0”. The second part further investigates the large-scale and long-term drainage and sedimentary responses to dynamic topography. Our models predict distinct erosional and depositional landscapes, comparing with that induced by eustatic sea level changes, which provides insights into differentiating the geological signals induced by dynamic topography in tectonically-stable regions. The propagating wave of positive dynamic topography under a plateau produces a landscape that is comparable to southern Africa during Cretaceous times. The propagating wave of negative dynamic topography tilts the surface and generates depositional patterns similar to the continental interior of North America during Cretaceous times and South America during Miocene times.

Abstract:
The following chapters presented here use modern ecological data and modern marine systems to evaluate past marine depositional settings and the preservation potential of various environments in the geological record. While the chapters in this dissertation vary in terms of study area, sedimentary systems (carbonate vs. siliciclastic), depositional environment, and organisms, all projects are based on developing and using quantitative models to evaluate the present as a means for understanding the past. Chapter one focuses on the preservation potential of rocky intertidal environments. The rocky intertidal zone is one of the most poorly preserved fossil-rich environments in the geological record. However in most coastal marine habitats today, it is one of the most diversity rich environments. Chapter one also focuses on the analytical advantages of hierarchical sampling of gastropod communities across San Salvador Island, the Bahamas to quantify community and species level preservation potential in rocky shore environments. Chapters two and three are based on the fossil-rich sedimentary deposits from the Po coastal plain in northeastern Italy. These deposits have been widely studied in terms of their sedimentology and stratigraphy, resulting in a highly resolved sequence stratigraphic architecture. The integration of sequence stratigraphy with paleobiology can enhance our understanding of spatiotemporal biotic patterns recorded in the fossil record. Used in conjunction with the highly-resolved stratigraphic framework, biotic patterns can be used to assess depositional cycles and bathymetry through time. Chapter two integrates sequence stratigraphic patterns and paleoecological data to develop bathymetric models across fossiliferous marine successions of the Po coastal plain, Italy. Chapter three evaluates the modern ecological dataset used to derive the bathymetric models. The last chapter also explores water depth distribution for selected taxa recorded in the Quaternary sediments and observed in present-day habitats. The dissertation research explored here demonstrates that modern ecological systems are essential to evaluating past geologic events. Through direct observation and quantitative analysis, I have learned that modern and fossil communities behave differently depending on environment (e.g. energy, salinity, water depth, etc.). These variables affect the distribution of living organisms today and through my research, delineate fossil distributions through time. With these observations, new questions have arisen about the latitudinal variability of rocky intertidal fossil preservation and extrapolating the quantitative bathymetric models to deeper time intervals. These questions will lead to future endeavors and pointedly add to the field of geology and stratigraphic paleobiology.

Abstract:
Ce manuscrit de thèse propose la première étude sédimentologique exhaustive de l’escarpement du Dur At Talah (150 km de long sur 120 m de hauteur). Ce dernier affleure dans la dépression d’Abu Tumayam, dans la partie méridionale du Bassin de Syrte (Libye). La Formation du Dur At Talah offre une séquence sédimentaire régressive (au 2nd ordre), allant de faciès marins peu profonds à des faciès fluviatiles, datée de l’Eocène supérieur. Les exceptionnelles conditions d'affleurement ont permis une analyse sédimentologique approfondie (lithofaciès, ichnofaciès, géométries et découpage séquentiel) conduisant à une caractérisation multiscalaire d'un système margino-littoral dominé par la dynamique tidale. Parmi les résultats saillants de cette étude figure l'identification de deux processus sédimentaires : la progradation signée par des structures clinoformes et l’accrétion latérale caractérisée par des stratifications hétérolithiques inclinées (IHS). Dès lors, plusieurs corps sédimentaires se distinguent sans ambiguïté tel que les barres d’embouchure hétérolithiques et les barres de méandres de chenaux tidaux. L'auscultation de ces grands corps sédimentaires permet alors d'en définir les critères de reconnaissance et le contexte séquentiel de mise en place, mais aussi d'en contraindre le potentiel réservoir
This manuscript provides the first exhaustive sedimentological study of the Dur At Talah escarpment (≈120 m high and ≈150 km length). This latter is exposed in the Abu Tumayam Trough, in the southern Sirt Basin (Libya). The Dur At Talah Formation forms a 2nd order regressive sequence, from shallow marine to fluviatile deposits, dated as upper Eocene. This exceptional outcrop allows an extensive and detailed sedimentological analysis (lithofaciès, ichnofaciès, geometries and sequence stratigraphy) leading to a multi-scale characterization of nearshore to paralic environments dominated by tidal dynamic. Among outstanding results, two sedimentary processes have been recognized and characterized: the progradation is expressed by large-scale clinoform structures and the lateral accretion is characterized by inclined heterolithic stratifications (IHS). Several sedimentary bodies are, thus, unequivocally distinguishable such as heterolithic mouth-bars and tidal channel point-bars. Thorough analysis of these sedimentary bodies allows to define diagnostic criteria to recognize them. They can be replaced in a consistent stratigraphic framework explaining their architecture and their vertical evolution in order to be used as reservoir analog

Abstract:
Abstract The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the success of an alternative numerical modeling approach to build a static model by incorporating Forward Stratigraphic Modelling (FSM) as geological input. This new methodology was performed on a field in the Malay Basin where early production wells indicated the high uncertainty in oil-originally-in-place, facies distribution and reservoir connectivity. For this reason, a new approach was developed for a static model in the area that provides new insights of subsurface reservoirs, de-risking future field assets and mitigates the subsurface uncertainty. Process-based simulations as presented with FSM present realistic scenarios of lithology distribution and vertical barriers that enable advanced subsurface characterization. FSM process built a quantitative method that simulate sediment distribution from regional to reservoir architecture for A field D and E sands. The main parameters for simulation run include regional understanding of sediment sources, in-situ organic sediment production, global sea-level curve enhanced by Milankovitch cycles and main long-term processes that control the subsidence of the area. FSM prediction combined with regional seismic, cores and well log data have provided a robust scenario of reservoir characteristics for static model. The results of the study detailed high-resolution sequence stratigraphy, significant changes in the depositional system and sand accumulation through time. The results of FSM were quality-checked with the A field well dataset for consistency. After performance of sensitivity analysis, the best-matched model was chosen for subsequent static model building process. In generating static depo- and rock type models, the FSM result were compared with the Geostatistical Stochastic Inversion (GSI) for property distribution away from the well control. The result of FSM guided model building showed A field D reservoirs as relatively having better sand quality with good lateral connectivity. A field E sand however is a more complex reservoir with limited areal and vertical connectivity. Overall, the total STOIIP for D reservoirs improved significantly while E reservoirs are comparable with existing model. The dynamic modelling was calibrated to field and wells performance (production history, MDT, DST, etc.) taking into account main remaining uncertainties and risks and evaluation of multiple field development options. With thorough integrated analysis of A field and its surroundings, integrated FSM and GSI derived static model reflects accurate facies distribution of the area compared with conventional workflows. It was used as an aid for Field A development optimization and increased the probability to find good reservoir facies as proven from findings of recently drilled development wells.

Abstract:
Abstract The sequence stratigraphic framework based on the combination of core, lithofacies and logging curve cycles, sometimes hardly reflect the lithology and sedimentary changes between wells, and is inconsistent with seismic data and production performance. Through the integrated research of core, well logging, seismic data and reservoir engineering, this paper proposed an update method. The new method can effectively solve the geological challenges in exploration and development and provide a reliable geological basis for efficient production of the oilfield. This method includes the following 3 steps, (1) identify the sequence stratigraphic boundary integrated the core and lithofacies analysis, and establish the well correlation sequence stratigraphic framework. (2) According to seismic and geological calibration, realize mutual constraint between wells and seismic and robust the sequence stratigraphic framework. (3) The sequence stratigraphic framework is optimized by using production dynamic data, which could grab the sequence stratigraphic framework more consistent with the deposition law. The isochronous sequence stratigraphic framework established by this method in B oilfield of the Middle East truly restores the structural characteristics of the progradational strata of the main production layer in B oilfield, and the sequence boundaries match well between drilling data and seismic data. Under the control of the isochronous sequence stratigraphic configuration, the ambiguous results of the previous division in sublayers according to the lithological isopach were updated, which solved the problems of diachronous oil layer and disordered oil-water relationship in this oilfield. This study also provides an effective isochronous sequence stratigraphic unit for reservoir prediction in exploration and development. Compared with the previous sequence stratigraphy research method in this area, the new method has two major advantages, (1) It complements the shortage of uncertain between wells and increases the accuracy for uncored interval. Furthermore, this method establishes a real isochronous sequence stratigraphic framework. 2) Combined with production dynamic data, the challenge of diachronous sublayers and confusion of oil-water relationship in the research results are avoided.

Abstract:
The Andaman Trough, located offshore North Sumatra is currently defined as an emerging basin for exploration. Its location primarily in a remote deep-water environment has resulted in limited well data being acquired to date and although there has historically been abundant seismic data, imaging of pre-Miocene stratigraphy has been poor. New seismic data, including the regional PGS NSMC3D and proprietary and multi-client 2D reprocessed data, combined with high resolution biostratigraphical analysis, has enabled extrapolation of the stratigraphy from the well explored and established shelfal areas down into the deep-water areas. To establish the high-resolution stratigraphic framework, paleo-environment, and paleo-climate for the well penetrations in the Andaman Trough, re-evaluation of quantitative and semi-quantitative abundance charts based on nannofossil, micropaleontology, and palynology zonation and sequences was conducted. Integration of this updated biostratigraphic analysis with interpretation from the modern regional seismic datasets enabled the identification of and confirmation of sequence boundaries and flooding surfaces across the Andaman Trough. Insights into timing of rifting, uplift, and erosion were made, as well as an interpretation of depositional environments, paleo-bathymetry and paleo-climate throughout the Andaman Trough. Significant findings include the chronostratigraphic separation of Late Oligocene Parapat fluvialtile deposits from the overlying Bampo marine turbidites, absent or incomplete Bampo Formation penetrated by some wells, as well as the delineation of a previously unidentified Eocene unconformity and revised timing of basin formation. Further insights into source rock development for the Eocene stratigraphic package were also developed.

Abstract:
Abstract As a unique stratigraphic prospect of UAE, the carbonate Mishrif Formation in NN Field is composed of 15-25 m thick rudist grainstone that formed in a shoal environment. The effective reservoir is bounded by inter-shoal packstone-wackestone. Combination of porous reservoir and non-porous baffles indicate high heterogeneity caused by rapid changes in deposition. Current exploration and drilling proposal are precluded due to the ambiguous understanding on reservoir anisotropy and dim-identification from seismic due to the thin reservoir thickness. To mitigate the challenge from reservoir identification, Mishrif whole core was collected and the following analysis performed: thin section description, porosity and permeability (RCA), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), and mercury injection (MICP). The subsurface analysis of the Mishrif reservoir was augmented with litho-facies identification, sedimentary facies recognition, and diagenetic history. Paleogeography was integrated with sequence stratigraphy to predict possible reservoir distribution. Sequence stratigraphy focused on identifying the 4th order sequence interfaces such as first flooding surface (FFS), maximum flooding surface (MFS), and sequence boundaries (SQ). Subsequently, the paleogeomorphology of oil-bearing zone was conducted, and a method using two crucial sequence surfaces was optimized after comparing impression and residual thickness methods. Meanwhile, to quantitatively characterize this set of oil-bearing units, AVO and Pre-stack inversion was implemented to predict reservoir distribution and fluid habitat. The integrated study revealed that the Mishrif reservoir quality is controlled by original depositional facies and diagenetic processes. The rudist grainstone was shoal-related with deposition on a paleo-geographic high and originally high porosity and excellent pore-connectivity. The subsequent fresh water leaching and dissolution contributed to improvement of pore structure. In contrast, the inter-shoal limestone contains higher micrite deposited in slightly deeper water, due to lower porosity it resisted the weathering procedure. To overcome the challenge of thin reservoir thickness, selection of key surfaces which are used to construct the paleo-geographic configuration would be quite crucial. And the identification of such surfaces only from seismic would be of high uncertainty. Finally, the dual-interface method was adopted to delineate the paleogeomorphology of oil-bearing zone. This illustration of paleogeography displayed high similarity to the reservoir quantitatively derived from AVO and Pre-stack inversion, which improved reservoir prediction. This integrated method from core-based reservoir recognition, sequence-driven paleogeography, as well as quantitative AVO and Pre-stack inversion provides new insight to study heterogeneous carbonates and reduce uncertainty for thin reservoir prediction.

Abstract:
Abstract South Furious is an oilfield in the Inboard Belt offshore North Sabah with oil production since 1979. The field is heavily faulted and compartmentalized, making it structurally complex and challenging for development. It is believed that the field has a low recovery factor, despite having a relatively large oil in-place volume reported. Its highly-heterogenous Stage IVA reservoir with thin sand-shale intercalations, and poor seismic imaging quality make stratigraphic interpretation and well correlations highly uncertain. Recognizing the limitations of conventional methods for well correlation in South Furious, SEA Hibiscus decided to take a quantitative approach on the existing well logs itself, particularly the gamma ray (GR) curve. This data-driven approach is a shift from the unsuccessful model-based method. Cyclostratigraphic analysis using CycloLog works on the principle that extra-terrestrial forces described by the Milankovitch Cycles have a huge influence on sedimentation processes, and its record are preserved in the well logs that we acquire while drilling, although not always obvious without the proper quantitative approach. This high-resolution stratigraphic method allows the detection of cyclic signals in facies-sensitive wireline logs (e.g., gamma ray), including subtle ones, and at resolutions that are equivalent to 4th to 6th Order stratigraphic cycles. Utilizing the Integrated Prediction Error Filter Analysis (INPEFA), geological breaks or events are quantitatively and objectively identified. Cyclostratigraphic and climate stratigraphy concepts as described by Perlmutter and Matthews (1990) and Nio (2005) form the basis of this analysis, which is an evolution of traditional sequence stratigraphic concepts. Results from the 10 pilot wells in South Furious show dramatic improvements in the stratigraphic correlation resolution, particularly in the deeper/older sections, allowing correlations to be made across different fault block segments, previously nearly impossible. With the ongoing inclusion of more wells to the cyclostratigraphic study and future plans to integrate independent chemostratigraphic data, a more robust stratigraphic framework for the field would be established. Results from the current study prove that the cyclostratigraphic method allows objective, quantitative and data-driven stratigraphic well correlations to be made from a systematic and quantitative review of existing well logs, without additional rock sampling or measurement, and in a cost-effective manner. Geoscientists should always be receptive to new ways of working, including utilizing data and techniques that have origins outside mainstream geoscience.

Abstract:
As a dynamic reliability methodology, current Event Sequence Diagram (ESD) framework becomes an important tool to model the dynamic situations. It has been employed in the risk analysis in nuclear and space industries. It has been proved that ESD can be helpful for the operators of nuclear power plant to understand the accident scenarios and monitor progress during accident evolution. Despite this, there are some limits for the ESD framework in the practical application, such as the icons in the ESD framework are inadequate, so many dynamic situations are difficulty or complicated to describe. As for nuclear power plant, this paper proposes to extend its current iconic system to simpler and better model the dynamic process. Based on current ESD icons, we have created many other icons to represent the dynamic situations of the system and the component according to the characteristics of nuclear power plant. Some complex situations and interactions in the operation and accident are expressed by only one or two icons, so the system dynamics and accident evolution can be clearly described and simply translated into ESD models. Then the loss-of-coolant accident is used as the example to show the application of extended icons. These new icons greatly reduce the size of ESD model, which is well for its building and quantitative analysis. Most of the extensional ESD icons are also suitable for complex systems in other research fields and the ESD methodology may become popular for dynamic reliability analysis in the industry application.
