Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cenozoic Foraminifera Biostratigraphy of the Niger Delta provides a thorough understanding of the Cenozoic Niger Delta and the evolution of its deeper offshore belts, where oil exploration and production activities are expanding into the region's little known deep-water terrain. The result of a multi-year study by a team of biostratigraphic experts in the oil and gas industry, this new reference will be a source of invaluable data to exploration geoscientists working in the Niger Delta region and those looking for a blueprint that can be applied in several regions globally. The Niger Delta is one of the most prolific oil provinces in the world-its production making Nigeria the 8th ranked oil producer globally. The oil and gas sector worldwide has interest in operational and developmental activities in the Niger Delta since the delta's structural setting has parallels to comparable hydrocarbon settings globally. Its applications will play a major role not only in future exploration efforts in the region but globally as well. Offers access-for the first time-to results of a multi-year hydrocarbon exploration and extraction study not available elsewhere Features more than 100 figures and illustrations to emphasize critical exploration applications in the region Multi-authored by members of the Stratigraphic Committee of the Niger Delta, ensuring access to the only study of its kind conducted by experts in the field Provides applications to exploration efforts in the region and its theories offer a blueprint for exploration efforts globally

This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cenozoic Foraminifera and Calcareous Nannofossil Biostratigraphy of the Niger Delta is available just as exploration and production activities are moving into the little known deep water terrain of the Niger Delta. A thorough understanding of the Cenozoic Niger Delta will improve understanding and exploration of the evolution of deeper offshore belts, help researchers strengthen and refine existing Neogene nannofossil biostratigraphic schemes for the Niger Delta region, and gain a better understanding of the relationship between nannofossil assemblage variations and paleoenvironments. The hydrocarbon reserves of the Niger Delta are an extremely valuable natural resource. Biostratigraphy and Correlation play important roles in the discovery, development and maturing of hydrocarbon fields. Calcareous nannofossils have been important tools for the stratigraphers in the Niger Delta and in recent years exploration has moved into deeper offshore areas where nannofossils are more abundant and diverse. Little has been published about the calcareous nannofossil chronostratigraphy of the Niger delta. Cenozoic Foraminifera and Calcareous Nannofossil Biostratigraphy of the Niger Delta fills the gap for earth scientists and those working in the oil and gas industry. Showcases the phylogenetic relationships of some of the principal Niger Delta marker species and their biostratigraphic and biochronologic significance Features photographs of index benthonic foraminifera and their equivalent planktonic datums as well as environmentally sensitive species used in paleobathymetric reconstruction Includes information and research that has, until now, been in the private archives of operational companies Companion website features 20+ full color stratigraphic charts and maps

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contains details on the geological units of Nigeria and the associated mineral resources. The book is divided into three parts. Part 1 discusses the geology of the crystalline rocks and their regional distribution while the sedimentary basins constitute the subject of Part 2. Part 3 takes the mineral resources of Nigeria one on one, their geological environment, mode of occurrence, localities and where possible the reserves estimation. Thereafter, an account of the previous and current mining policies (including that of petroleum) of the Nigerian government is given and goes ahead to list some specific investment opportunities in the solid minerals sector.

Book excerpt: The fossil history of plant life in Antarctica is central to our understanding of the evolution of vegetation through geological time and also plays a key role in reconstructing past configurations of the continents and associated climatic conditions. This book provides the only detailed overview of the development of Antarctic vegetation from the Devonian period to the present day, presenting Earth scientists with valuable insights into the break up of the ancient supercontinent of Gondwana. Details of specific floras and ecosystems are provided within the context of changing geological, geographical and environmental conditions, alongside comparisons with contemporaneous and modern ecosystems. The authors demonstrate how palaeobotany contributes to our understanding of the paleoenvironmental changes in the southern hemisphere during this period of Earth history. The book is a complete and up-to-date reference for researchers and students in Antarctic paleobotany and terrestrial paleoecology.
