We’ve got a new #oil andgas assessment! We estimate 0.8 billion barrels of #oil and 16 trillion cubic feet of #natgas in the Smackover Formation that spans Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida: ow.ly/EsYh50PE8zL #energy

We have a new report out evaluating the use of machine-learning and geostatistical approaches for spatial modeling geoenergy resources: ow.ly/I06H50PE8z4 #energy #geology #MachineLearning #AI

Our next #oil andgas assessment takes us to Morocco, where we estimate 3.8 billion barrels of #oil and 20.7 trillion cubic feet of #natgas off the Atlantic coast of Morocco: ow.ly/52qh50PE8yp #energy #petroleum #geology

We have a new #natgas assessment! We estimate a mean of 5.2 trillion cubic feet of coalbed #naturalgas in the Vermejo Formation and Raton Formation northeast of Santa Fe in New Mexico: ow.ly/RSAw50PE8x9 #energy #geology #petroleum

With the rise of both continuous #oilandgas development & interest in storing carbon in geologic features, there’s more interest in studying the pores in organic matter of source-rock reservoirs. Here’s a #data analysis of that very topic: ow.ly/rzNc50P10bc #Energy

We’ve got a new paper out using Worldview-3 imagery to map abandoned #uranium #mines in Texas: ow.ly/AhR150P10as OSMRE #Energy

We’ve got a new study out estimating the potential #energy & #carbon dioxide storage potential for Western Europe: ow.ly/XxrL50P109f We estimate 36.7 gigatons of CO2 could be stored with #oil reservoirs accounting for 32% of that total & #NatGas reservoirs the remaining 68%

New #data release! We’ve got evidence here that ductile strain in greenschist rocks in Taiwan led to natural graphitization: ow.ly/jtW950P106Z #Energy

We have a new paper that broadens the description of sedimentary organic matter from the conventional use of #coal petrography to include palynological & geochemical sedimentary organic matter: ow.ly/fq5E50P106r #Energy

We’ve got a new #OilandGas assessment out! It’s the Bakken, but not *the* Bakken-this one’s in northwestern Montana, and we estimate about 200 million barrels of #oil and 1 trillion cubic feet of #NatGas : ow.ly/G6K250P105R #Energy

It's Great American Outdoors Day! We love the outdoors, because that's where fieldwork happens. And fieldwork takes us to spectacular places like this one in Alaska. We hope you enjoy your outdoors today! #geology #Fieldwork Friday #Fieldwork #GreatAmericanOutdoorsDay #Outdoors

Earlier this week, we released an analysis of graptolite & bitumen for thermal overmaturity. Here’s the #data that went into that analysis: ow.ly/NqHV50P101p #Energy

We’ve got a new #OilandGas assessment out! This one’s up north, where we estimate 7.8 billion barrels of #oil & 463.7 trillion cubic feet of #natgas : ow.ly/bSSB50P103a #Petroleum #Energy
