This webinar provides new insights around hydrocarbon migration and an overview from U.S. unconventional perspectives through produced oil geochemistry. Director of Geoscience at Impac Exploration Services in Houston, Texas, Wahid Rahman, uses a case study in the Anadarko Basin to forecast the extent of self-sourced petroleum, its migration, areal extent, hydrocarbon phase behavior and key reservoir engineering properties evaluations for reservoir geochemistry-based exploration.

Global Occurrences and Case Studies: In this webinar, you'll learn about the quickly expanding world of exploration for geologic hydrogen. Geoff Ellis of the USGS details the nature and origin of natural hydrogen, the reasons for accumulations, and effective exploration strategies. He then reviews locations in the world where reserves of natural hydrogen have been found, and discuss current activities and trends. Avon McIntyre of Hyterra discusses the company's drilling activities in pursuit of geologic hydrogen, including operations along the Nemaha Ridge in the central U.S. The project includes Project Geneva in Nebraska, and Nemaha Ridge, Kansas, both in the U.S.

Featured speaker Jim Puckette of Oklahoma State University dives into silica enrichment in the Woodford and Caney Shales. In the Woodford Shale, silica enrichment is manifested as distinct silica-cemented bands that contain tests of radiolarians, the likely biogenic source of most silica in silica cement. Silica enrichment in the Caney Shale occurs without an obvious biogenic source of Si or developing the banding and beds evident in the Woodford Shale. Puckette notes identifying differences between reservoir and non-reservoir intervals, including density porosity, clay mineral content and resistivity.

As more oil and gas wells are taken out of production, there is an opportunity to reuse their infrastructure for geothermal energy production. These inactive wellbores provide access to subsurface reservoirs of hot water and rock that can be tapped for the commercial development of deep geothermal direct use or power generation projects. Repurposing retired wells reduces costs and environmental impacts versus drilling new wells. It provides a beneficial use for legacy oilfield assets. Geothermal power holds promise as a clean, renewable baseload energy source that could help transition communities away from declining fossil fuel production. Reusing existing well infrastructure for geothermal could support more stable, diversified local economies while making use of energy locked in the subsurface to provide low-carbon heating and electricity for homes and businesses.

Geoscientists are playing an active role in addressing sustainable development through ethical considerations as we navigate the energy transition. As the energy landscape evolves, it is critical to include all perspectives and background while listening and including the Indigenous voices from these communities as we navigate this landscape. Our speakers will highlight how they are using geoscience to advance sustainability within their respective fields, in addition to the ethical considerations for their projects.

Mississippian strata in the Ottawa County, Oklahoma, within the Tri-State Mining District, are a well-known hosts to MVT lead and zinc ore deposits. They are also important to our understanding of the geological story of the southern midcontinent.
Join us for a virtual float trip down the Spring River in northern Oklahoma. We will explore the Middle Mississippian (Visean; upper Osagean-lower Meramecian) strata of the Boone Group as exposed in roadcuts, quarries, and natural outcroppings across Ottawa County in northeastern Oklahoma.

In today’s world of "Big Data," the pumping data from every stage being fractured is likely being recorded and stored somewhere and in many cases being used in an analytical program to help optimize operations. However, one variable that has an overwhelming impact on fracturing responses is how the rock properties at the perforations vary, and without taking this into account, analytical models often fall short. This talk will discuss how this data is an integral part of providing insights into completion analytics.
