Giant Oil and Gas Fields of the Decade: 1990-1999 is the fourth of a four-decade series of Memoirs commemorating important giant discoveries. This title presents major trends that characterized giant-field discoveries in the 1990s and includes tectonic and sedimentary-basin maps.
The aims of this volume are to provide a better understanding of glaciogenic processes, their stratigraphic record, and reservoir characteristics of glaciogenic deposits.
This Memoir will serve as a reference book on the Arabian plate for geoscientists in the oil industry and academia in the Middle East and worldwide.
CD version of Memoir 55: This publication is the fourth in the AAPG Petroleum Basins Series and focuses on the Western Canadian basin and foreland as the type area, with five analog basins in the United States, Iran, and Venezuela.
Memoir 106 is intended to generate ideas for the future exploration of immature and mature basins across the Tethyan Region. The Arabian Plate, North Africa and parts of Southern Eurasia, have numerous similarities in their tectono-stratigraphic history and petroleum systems. These similarities could be used to extrapolate proven petroleum systems to underexplored areas and lead to hydrocarbon discoveries.
Memoir 94 – Thrust fault-related folds form numerous important hydrocarbon traps in sub-aerial and deep-water fold and thrust belts as well as in inversion fold and thrust belts. This memoir presents 16 papers on new advances in the analysis and understanding of thrust-related fold systems including detachment folds, thrust-fault propagation folds, wedge thrust-related fold systems, and basement-involved fold systems.

Memoir 93 documents shale tectonics from a variety of basins around the world, including the southern Beaufort Sea; the Krishna-Godavari Basin, India; eastern offshore Trinidad; offshore Brunei; and along the westernmost portion of the Mediterranean Sea. The book also provides information on the petrographic framework, behavior, geometries, and geodynamic models of shales. Release date: 03/2011
This volume presents a compilation of the state of the science contributions from the international research community on the topic of geosequestration of carbon dioxide, including papers on current status and challenges, regional assessment studies, and a discussion of the economics and regulatory aspects.
This volume will prove useful to anyone interested in the methods for observing and quantifying the pore systems that control hydrocarbon storage and flow in unconventional reservoirs.
This volume includes contributions dealing with the origin of the magnetic minerals, and the application of MS as a palaeoenvironmental or palaeoclimatic proxy and also as a tool to provide astronomical calibration in order to improve the chronology of selected time intervals.
Continental margins and their fossilized analogues are important repositories of natural resources. With increased availability of high quality geological, seismic and potential field data, imaging of these margins and their embedded sedimentary basins and magnetic rocks has reached new levels of refinement and definition, as illustrated by the examples described in this volume.
The volume documents shale tectonics from a variety of basins around the world, including the southern Beaufort Sea; the Krishna-Godavari Basin, India; the Niger Delta; eastern offshore Trinidad; offshore Brunei; and along the Spanish arm of the Mediterranean Sea.
