Pseudo proximate analysis: method using wireline logs to estimate components of coal bearing rock matrix without control data
(University of the Western Cape, 2015)
Lab conducted proximate analysis of coal bearing rock units calculates the weight percentage of ash, moisture, fixed carbon and volatile matter through a series of combustion steps. The data obtained is quintessential in ...
Sedimentological re-interpretation of zone 3 (Upper Shallow Marine) of selected wells, Bredasdorp Basin (Offshore South Africa)
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
The Bredasdorp Basin is located on the southern continental margin, off the coast of South Africa. It is mostly filled by marine Aptian to Maastrichtian deposits, overlaying pre-existing Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous ...
A conceptual understanding of groundwater recharge processes and surface-water/ groundwater interactions in the Kruger National Park
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
In the Kruger National Park (KNP) which is the flagship conservation area in South
Africa, the impact on groundwater should be kept to a minimum as groundwater plays a vital role in sustaining ecosystem functioning and ...
Petro physical evaluation of four wells within Cretaceous gas-bearing sandstone reservoirs, In block 4 and 5 orange basin, South Africa.
(University of the Western Cape, 2013)
Petrophysical evaluation of four wells within Cretaceous gas-bearing sandstone
reservoirs in blocks 4 and 5 Orange Basin, South Africa.

The present research work evaluates the petrophysical characteristics ...
Petrophysical evaluation of fracture sytems in coal bed methane (CBM) bearing coal seams in relation to geological setting,3 exploration blocks, Botswana
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
This study is focused on the Coal Bed Methane resources of Botswana with specific reference to the Central Kalahari basin where prospect license blocks forming the focus of this study are located. The aim of this study is ...
Geochemical and petrographic characterization of platreef pyroxenite Package p1, p2, p3 and p4 units at the akanani prospect area, bushveld Complex, South Africa
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
This study is focused on the Akanani prospect area, approximately 25 km north-west of the town of Mokopane, Limpopo Province where exploration geologists at the study area have classified the ‘pyroxenitic’ units into P1, ...
A study of the structural geology of an area between the Neusspruit shear zone and the Brakfontein shear zone near Kakamas, Northern Cape.
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
The study area Koekoeb B is a farm that falls under the Kakamas Terrane which in turn falls under the Gordonia Subprovince in the Namaqua-Natal Metamorphic Province, South Africa. This area was chosen due to lack in ...
Application of petrophysics and seismic in reservoir characterization. A case study on selected wells, in the Orange Basin, South Africa
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)
The evaluation of petroleum reservoirs has shifted from single approach to an integrated approach. The integration, analysis and understanding of all available data from the well bore and creating property models is an ...
Characterization of potential source rocks of the Prince Albert, Whitehill and Collingham formations in the Laingsburg sub-basin, South Africa
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
The present research deals with the characterization of the Lower Ecca Group in terms of sedimentology, mineralogy and organic geochemistry. A field study was conducted in order to characterize the sedimentology and thereby ...
A study into the main structural features of the Namaqua region and their relation to the intrusion of the Keimoes Suite
(2013)
The thesis provides a study into the main structural features of the Namaqua Region
and their relation to the intrusion of the Keimoes Suite. This was achieved by producing
a digitized map of the Namaqua Region structural ...
