title: Waterflood Performance Analysis for the South Cowden Grayburg Reservoir, Ector County, Texas

description: A reservoir engineering study was conducted on waterflood performance in the South Cowden field, an Upper Permian Grayburg reservoir on the Central Basin Platform in West Texas. The study aimed to understand the historically poor waterflood performance, evaluate three techniques for incorporating petrophysical measurements and geological interpretation into heterogeneous reservoir models, and identify issues in heterogeneity modeling and fluid-flow scaleup that require further research. The approach included analysis of relative permeability data, analysis of injection and production data, heterogeneity modeling, and waterflood simulation. The poor waterflood recovery in South Cowden is partly due to the completion of wells only in the top half of the formation. Recompletion of wells through the entire formation is estimated to improve recovery by 6 percent of the original oil in place in some areas of the field over ten years. A direct three-dimensional stochastic approach to heterogeneity modeling yielded the best fit to waterflood performance and injectivity, but a more conventional model based on smooth mapping of layer-averaged properties was almost as good. The results reaffirm the importance of large-scale heterogeneities in waterflood modeling but demonstrate only a slight advantage for stochastic modeling at this scale. All flow simulations required a reduction to the measured whole-core kvl kh to explain waterflood behavior, suggesting the presence of barriers to vertical flow not explicitly accounted for in any of the heterogeneity models. They also required modifications to the measured steady-state relative permeabilities, suggesting the importance of small-scale heterogeneities and scaleup. Vertical flow barriers, small-scale heterogeneity modeling, and relative permeability scaleup require additional research for waterflood performance prediction in reservoirs like South Cowden.

description: The Manvel Saltwater Disposal (SWD) site (RRC Site No. 92-03-00003), which lies within the city limits of Manvel, Texas, in Brazoria County, was investigated by the Bureau of Economic Geology during a 5-month study from July through November 2015. The study included hydrogeological investigation, waste characterization, assessment of environmental impact, and evaluation of remediation options. Saltwater, drilling waste, and crude oil have been disposed of at the site. There have been several instances of pit overflow, levee rupture, or both, resulting in contamination of the surrounding area by saltwater and crude oil. There have been several public complaints to regulatory agencies, centered on the perceived threat to groundwater quality. The site lies in the outcrop of the Beaumont Formation, where the formation is sufficiently thick to be a local aquifer, containing freshwater with chlorinities of less than 100 mg/L. The Beaumont lies above and is hydrologically distinct from the main water-yielding part of the Chicot aquifer.

description: Domestic fluvial-dominated deltaic (FDD) reservoirs contain more than 30 Billion barrels (Bb) of remaining oil, more than any other type of reservoir, approximately one-third of which is in danger of permanent loss through premature field abandonments. The U.S. Department of Energy has placed its highest priority on increasing near-term recovery from FDD reservoirs in order to prevent abandonment of this important strategic resource. To aid in this effort, the Bureau of Economic Geology at The University of Texas at Austin began a 46-month project in October 1992 to develop and demonstrate advanced methods of reservoir characterization that would more accurately locate remaining volumes of mobile oil that could then be recovered by recompleting existing wells or drilling geologically targeted infill wells. Reservoirs in two fields within the Frio Fluvial-Deltaic Sandstone (Vicksburg Fault Zone) oil play of South Texas, a mature play which still contains 1.6 Bbbl of mobile oil after producing 1 Bbbl over four decades, were selected as laboratories for developing and testing reservoir characterization techniques. Advanced methods in geology, geophysics, petrophysics, and engineering were integrated to (1) identify probable reservoir architecture and heterogeneity, (2) determine past fluid-flow history, (3) integrate fluid-flow history with reservoir architecture to identify untapped, incompletely drained, and new pool compartments, and (4) identify specific opportunities for near-term reserve growth. To facilitate the success of operators in applying these methods in the Frio play, geologic and reservoir engineering characteristics of all major reservoirs in the play were documented and statistically analyzed. Finally, to assist operators in identifying the reservoirs most prospective for reserve growth, and therefore most worthy of detailed characterization efforts, a quantitative quick-look methodology was developed to prioritize reservoirs in terms of reserve-growth potential.

Ectadius Förster, 1856: 108, 113. Type species Platygaster craterus Walker, 1835 by monotypy. Junior synonym of Synopeas Förster, 1856 – Masner 1965: 140.
Polymecus Förster, 1856: 144. Unnecessary replacement name for Ectadius Förster, 1856.
Remarks
In the addendum, Förster (1856) unnecessarily proposed the replacement name Polymecus to avoid confusion with the plant genus Ectadium E.Mey. Förster distinguished Ectadius from Synopeas by the elongate female metasoma in the former. It was later treated as a junior synonym of Synopeas by Fouts (1924). The type species of Ectadius is Platygaster craterus Walker, 1835, by monotypy, for which the primary type is deposited in NMINH. The specimens in Vienna are original exemplars, likely provided by Walker himself and used in the original description of the genus. They are identical to the lectotype and paralectotype except for being somewhat lighter in color.

description: Reservoir performance of the South Cowden Grayburg field suggests that only 21 percent of the original oil in place has been recovered. The purpose of this study is to construct a realistic reservoir model to be used to predict the location of the remaining mobile oil. Construction of reservoir models for fluid-flow simulation of carbonate reservoirs is difficult because they typically have complicated and unpredictable permeability patterns. Much of the difficulty results from the degree to which diagenetic overprinting masks depositional textures and patterns. For example, the task of constructing a reservoir model of a limestone reservoir that has undergone only cementation and compaction is easier than constructing a model of a karsted reservoir that has undergone cavern formation and collapse as well as cementation and compaction. The Permian-age carbonate-ramp reservoirs in the Permian Basin, West Texas, and New Mexico, are typically anhydritic dolomitized limestone. Because the dolomitization occurred soon after deposition, depositional fabrics and patterns are often retained, and a reservoir model can be constructed using depositional concepts. Recent studies of the San Andres outcrop in the Guadalupe Mountains (Kerans and others, 1994; Grant and others, 1994) and the Seminole San Andres reservoir in the Permian Basin (Lucia and others, 1995) illustrate how depositional fabrics and patterns can be used to construct a reservoir model when depositional features are prominent. South Cowden field, Ector County, Texas, is a Grayburg (Permian age) anhydritic dolomite reservoir similar to many other Permian reservoirs in the Permian Basin. However, the diagenetic overprint has advanced so much that in some parts of the field, depositional patterns and fabrics no longer can be used to predict and model permeability. In this paper, we develop a reservoir model that includes areas where depositional patterns are useful and areas where they are not useful because diagenetic overprinting masks depositional patterns.

Hypocampsis

description: Genus Hypocampsis Förster, 1856
(junior synonym of Platygaster Latreille, 1809)
Hypocampsis Förster, 1856: 108, 115. Type species Hypocampsis hyalinata Thomson, 1859 by subsequent designation by Ashmead 1903: 98. Junior synonym of Platygaster Latreille, 1809 – Fouts 1920: 67.
Triplatygaster Kieffer, 1913: 178. Type species Platygaster contorticornis Ratzeburg, 1844 by monotypy.
Triplatygaster Kieffer, 1913 – Szelényi 1938: 100, 101.
Remarks
Förster describes the principal character of Hypocampsis to be the “widely turned edges of the metasoma”. Presumably, this refers to the laterotergites, which are relatively broad. Additionally, the female antenna is filiform and the clavomeres are not expanded in diameter. The original description does not include any species, but specimens were reared from “ Cecidomyia strobi in Abies cones”. Based on the current taxonomy of the midges and the tree, this is probably Kaltenbachiola strobi (Winnertz, 1853) on Picea abies (L.) H.Karst., which according to Kieffer (1926) is also the host of Platygaster contorticornis Ratzeburg, 1844, the type species of Triplatygaster Kieffer, 1913. Fouts (1920, 1924) synonymized Hypocampsis with Platygaster, based on Förster’s description. Later, Szelényi (1938) treated Triplatygaster as a junior synonym of Hypocampsis.
The type specimen of Pl. contorticornis is almost certainly destroyed, presenting an obstacle to species identification and casting uncertainty on the species group that MacGown (1979) based on Pl. contorticornis. The contorticornis group is associated with conifers and characterized by coarse microsculpture, complete notauli, a strongly flattened metasoma, and a wedge-shaped male antennal plate organ. There are two specimens in Förster’s collection identified as Pl. contorticornis. However, their provenance is unknown and they do not resemble the prevailing concept of Pl. contorticornis.

title: The Effectiveness of Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage Insurance
Creators: name: Frost, Jonathon
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2023

description: This thesis research tests the historical usefulness and desirability of pasture, rangeland, and forage insurance for ranchers in Utah. PRF insurance is specifically for ranchers who own livestock and rely on their livestock to graze in the fields for food consumption. If there is inadequate precipitation, there will be less grass growth for livestock which causes ranchers to purchase hay, leading to higher feed costs. It is similar to other insurance policies requiring premium and indemnity payments. By analyzing the historical payments, a decisive conclusion can be made that PRF suits both ranchers and USDA policymakers. Other studies that discussed precipitation levels and monthly intervals were included as comparisons. This thesis study comprises 2018 to 2022 and how feed costs differ with and without a PRF coverage level. Based on the historical payments, it is evident that PRF aids ranchers in reducing the risk of purchasing more feed costs.

Isocybus Förster, 1856: 108, 114–115. Type species Platygaster grandis Nees, 1834 by subsequent designation by Ashmead 1893: 327.
Remarks
Förster described Isocybus as having a cubical head, a mesoscutellum with a tuft of setae, and a relatively large body size. He included the species Platygaster cotta Walker, 1835, Pl. erato Walker, 1835, and Pl. matuta Walker, 1835, the types of which are located in the NMINH and the NHMUK. He also included Pl. ruficornis (Latreille, 1805), which influential authors of the time considered to be a senior synonym of Pl. grandis Nees, 1834 (Walker 1835; Curtis 1837). Platygaster grandis Nees, 1834 is the type species of Isocybus. The type material is unknown, probably lost. Four specimens in the Förster collection are marked as original exemplars of Pl. grandis, but we do not have reliable evidence that they could be considered part of Nees’s syntype series. However, we do believe that they correspond to Nees’s concept of the species and they fully match his description. Based on this, we here designate specimen NHMW-HYM #0005320 (top left) as the neotype of Pl. grandis.

A model-independent determination of the sound horizon using recent BAO measurements and strong lensing systems

description: We propose an improved method to determine the sound horizon in a cosmological model-independent way by using the latest observations of BAO measurements from DES, BOSS/eBOSS, and DESI surveys and gravitationally time-delay lensed quasars from H0LiCOW collaboration. Combining the 6$D_{Δt}$ plus 4$D_{d}$ measurements and the reconstructed BAO datasets, we obtain a model-independent result of $r_d=139.7^{+5.2}_{-4.5}$ Mpc, with the precision at the $\sim3.7\%$ level, which is in agreement with the result of Planck 2018 within $\sim1.7σ$ uncertainty. Our method is independent of cosmological parameters such as the Hubble constant, dark energy, (and, more importantly, does not involve the cosmic curvature when using the $D_d$ measurements of the lenses, and also avoids the obstacle of mass-sheet degeneracy in gravitational lensing). Meanwhile, it does not need to consider the Eddington relation with concerning the transformation of distance. Since only two types of data are considered, the contribution of each can be clearly understood. Our results also highlight the Hubble tension and may give us a better understanding of the discordance between the datasets or reveal new physics beyond the standard model.
