The dependence of gypsum morphology on the chemical composition can therefore be a tool for interpreting the paleo-chemistry and environments of solutions from which gypsum in the geological record precipitated. In addition, the morphology of the gypsum that will precipitate in the Dead Sea once the Red Sea-Dead Sea conduit is built will determine if the crystals will remain in suspension in the surface brine, thereby leading to “whitening” of the lake. Despite its importance, little is known about the impact of the different parameters on the morphology of gypsum precipitated from natural brines. In the present study we conducted single point batch experiments with mixtures of Dead Sea - Red Sea brines and utilized image processing techniques to study the morphology of the gypsum that precipitated from different solution compositions at different degrees of oversaturation. The results from the first data set towards the understanding of what controls the morphology of gypsum while providing a preliminary tool for the forecast of the future of the Dead Sea are presented here.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101039,"journal":{"name":"Procedia Earth and Planetary Science","volume":"17 ","pages":"Pages 376-379"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.proeps.2016.12.095","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76252496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The target shales of the Elko Formation are unique fresh-water hydrocarbon reservoirs with relatively dilute source water (8.5 g/L total dissolved solids [TDS]). Additionally, the Elko Formation is underlain by a fresh-water carbonate aquifer (0.2-0.3 g/L TDS) that outcrops downgradient of the exploration area. The water quality and isotopic data were used to evaluate pre-hydraulic fracturing conditions in this undeveloped area. The same data were also collected for groundwater and surface-water sites about two months and one year after exploration hydraulic fracturing. No systematic differences in water chemistry were observed between pre- and post-hydraulic fracturing samples. Based on water chemistry of shallow groundwater, surface water, and from the production zone, the most useful constituents identified for monitoring for potential future incursion of reservoir-associated fluids into the near-surface environment are TDS (or electrical conductivity), chloride, propane, methanol, ethanol, and 2-butoxyethanol. Groundwater flow and transport models were developed to evaluate the potential movement of hydrocarbons and hydraulic fracturing fluids from the targeted zones, which are about 1800 to 3600 m beneath the land surface, to shallow groundwater (<300 m below land surface). Model simulations indicate that hydraulic fracturing fluid remains contained within the target shales for at least 1,000 years for most development scenarios.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101039,"journal":{"name":"Procedia Earth and Planetary Science","volume":"17 ","pages":"Pages 189-192"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.proeps.2016.12.065","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83695870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
