GEOLOGY LECTURE MARCH 14
Jack C. Pashin of the Geological Survey
of Alabama will present an American Association
of Petroleum Geologists Distinguished Lecture entitled
"Compartmentalization Analysis of Coalbed Methane Reservoirs
in the Black Warrior Basin: Using 3-D Computer Models to Balance
Industrial and Environmental Concerns” on Monday, March 14,
from noon to 1 p.m. in Dillman 320. The lecture is hosted by the
Department of Geological and Mining Engineering and Sciences and
outlines an investigation to determine whether hydraulic fracturing
to extract methane from deep reservoir coalbeds in Alabama could
lead to contamination of shallow ground water sources. The main
method described is a modeling analysis of fracture patterns (cracks)
and the status of hydraulic communication between deep reservoir
coal beds and shallow aquifers. |
