A Flashcards
A relatively impermeable rock, commonly shale, anhydrite or salt, that forms a barrier or seal above and around reservoir rock so that fluids cannot migrate beyond the reservoir is called?
Cap Rock
What are the 2 most common reservoir rocks?
Sandstone and Carbonates
The proccess in which hydrocarbons move from one porous and permeable rock to another is called?
Migration
Siliceous environments, named for the silica-rich shells deposited in them. Where does this environment occur?
deep-sea
Sedimentary layers (strata) and lava flows were originally deposited as relatively horizontal sheets. This principle is known as Principle of?
Original Horizontality
Any feature that cuts across a rock or body of sediment must be younger than the rock or sediment it cuts across. This principle is known as?
Cross-Cutting
Dense, viscous mixtures of sediment and water in which the volume and mass of sediment exceeds that of water known as?
Debris
Gravity driven turbid mixtures of sediment temporarily suspended in water are called?
Turbidity Currents
In which of the following sedimentary environments would you least expect to find gravel?
Deep Marine
When the particles move in a series of jumps, periodically leaving the bed surface and carried short distances within the body of the fluid before returning to the bed again is called?
Saltation
The tendency for variations in current velocity to segregate sediments on the basis of particle size is called?
Sorting
What is the common rock-forming mineral which is known as dolomite?
CaMg(CaCO3)2
The processes responsible for changing sediments into sedimentary rock are compaction and?
Cementation
Proses di mana terjadi presipitasi kimia pada pembentukan kristal baru, terbentuk didalam pori-pori sedimen atau batuan yang mengikat satu butir dengan butir lainnya disebut?
Sementasi
