Over the past years, the interest in organic-rich, fine-grained depositional systems has been growing due to the increasing relevance of unconventional shale reservoirs and several …
Fine-grained sedimentary rocks generally undergo severe mechanical compaction during burial, which complicates the recognition of primary mudstone fabrics and associated …

Abstract The Vaca Muerta Formation (Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous) bears a high-quality, oil-prone kerogen deposited under mostly anoxic, marine conditions and constitutes a world …
Over the last few years, recognition and characterization of sedimentary processes in fine- grained successions is receiving considerable attention in part due to the increased …
Natural fractures are abundant in the Vaca Muerta Formation and are important because they may affect hydraulic-fracture growth during well stimulation. They contribute to …

This introductory chapter describes and discusses (1) the idea of coopetition that gave birth to this AAPG Memoir,(2) the importance of Geology in exploring and developing …
Contourites are increasingly being recognized in ancient fine-grained depositional environments. However, detailed ichnologic analyses focusing on shallow-water examples …

Abstract The Vaca Muerta Formation consist of outer ramp to basinal facies in a mixed siliciclastic–carbonate creating an organic-rich section up to 500 m thick. This chapter …
Abstract The Vaca Muerta Formation deposited in a retro-arc setting, favored by an under filled depocenter and uplifted peripheral zones. The onset of the deposition corresponds to a …
