... in the area surrounding the Brazeau Reservoir and river (Alberta), beginning in mid-2014. Detailed analyses of the waveforms and spectra for these events, as well as their timing, strongly suggest that at least seven of these events are cryoseismic signals associated with freeze-up on the reservoir...

... to a maximum depth of 2500 m for the Brazeau and Coalspur formations and 3400 m for the Gates Formation (Tables 3, 4). The equations (Ryan, 1992) were developed as a means of predicting the theoretical gas capacity for a coalbed methane reservoir at given depths and coal ranks. The cal- culations essentially...

.... A water well was drilled at a point 2.5 km away from the trackway, adjacent to the Brazeau Reservoir ( Fig. 1B , Water Well-476344, Government of Alberta), and the resulting core was logged. The top 12 m of the core consists of Pleistocene sands and gravels, followed by 2.5 m of oxidized sandstone...

We believe that such studies will lead to a better understanding of the distribution of reservoir and source rocks, and the prediction of traps that could contain significant petroleum accumulations.

Hydrocarbon reservoirs such as the Barons Sandstone in southwestern Alberta are related to the unconformity and are typically thin, discontinuous, and in direct contact with potential source beds; they are an ideal target for horizontal drilling...

Examination of chemical analyses of “water” samples indicates that most of the samples were of mud filtrate. It is gas, not water that forms the continuous reservoir...

The subsurface geometry in the magnetotelluric-derived resistivity model is in good agreement with well-log data and a coincident seismic section. Zones of low resistivity in the underthrust rocks may...

...W.R. Landwer Consolidated reservoir formations are defined as those having consistently higher acoustic impedance (density and velocity product) than similarly aged, normally pressured shales. For such formations, porosity and hydrocarbon effects can be effectively imaged via seismic velocity...

These can be bulk properties such as lithology, porosity, and permeability, or dynamic properties like fluid content and pressure. A geophysical...
