The influence of halokinesis on shallow-marine sediments in salt basins: The Fulmar Formation, Central North Sea, UK (2022)
Thesis
Foey, J. A. L. (2022). The influence of halokinesis on shallow-marine sediments in salt basins: The Fulmar Formation, Central North Sea, UK. (Thesis). Keele University

Salt collapse structures host significant hydrocarbon reserves and have enormous economic importance, however despite this there is comparatively little research conducted on their evolution, structure and facies distribution. This thesis provides an... Read More about The influence of halokinesis on shallow-marine sediments in salt basins: The Fulmar Formation, Central North Sea, UK.

An integrated analysis of facies control on deformation bands in mixed aeolian-fluvial sandstone reservoirs (2021)
Thesis
Clark, K. (2021). An integrated analysis of facies control on deformation bands in mixed aeolian-fluvial sandstone reservoirs. (Thesis). Keele University

Deformation bands are the primary structural element of fault damage zones within porous granular rocks. They are sub-seismic structures that act to modify the petrophysical properties of the host lithology, and as such are an area of focused researc...

Geotechnical site characterisation using seismic and resistivity geophysical techniques (2019)
Thesis
Eissa, R. M. A. A. (2019). Geotechnical site characterisation using seismic and resistivity geophysical techniques. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/414955

Geotechnical site investigations are vital for any construction project in brownfield re-development and/or greenfield sites. Many non-invasive, near-surface geophysical techniques are used for site characterisation, with electrical resistivity and s...

Energy potential of the Ecca Group from the southern Main Karoo Basin, South Africa (2018)
Thesis
Campbell, S. A. (2018). Energy potential of the Ecca Group from the southern Main Karoo Basin, South Africa. (Thesis). Keele University. Retrieved from https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/412302

Energy shortages and sporadic, controlled blackouts have been a defining feature of South Africa’s aging national energy grid for more than a decade. To investigate local energy sources from shale gas, two boreholes were drilled in the southern Main...
