Applied Stratigraphix provides high quality core description services at competitive rates. They have described over 3 kilometers of core from various basins around the world. Unlike other providers, they allow clients to select the specific types of information and columns needed in descriptions and reports. They are based in Colorado with access to core repositories, outcrops, and geological areas. Their descriptions include sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy, ichnology, fractures, fluvial parameters, electrofacies correlations, and integrated carbonate microfacies analysis.

Core Description Services
www.stratigraphyhelp.com
At Applied Stratigraphix we guarantee that you
will find the quality of core description and
associated report a magnitude higher, and the cost
lower than what you would get with any of our
competitors in the U.S and Western Europe. If you
don’t agree, we will not charge you for the hours
worked!
After having described over 3 kilometers of core
from the North Sea, Williston Basin, Barents Sea,
the Kohat-Potwar Basin, West Africa , Offshore
Mid-Norway, the Paradox Basin, and Southern
Indus Basin on a cm-scale we assure you that core
descriptions provided by our company will be of
the highest quality at a very competitive rate.
Unlike core descriptions from popular service
companies where you get 10 different columns
(with 8 that your team has no use for) we allow
you to decide what information you’d like to see.
We are based in Colorado, USA with offices in
Westminster and Ouray. Our strategic locations
allow close access to the USGS national core
repository in Lakewood, fantastic outcrops in the
Front Range and Wyoming, and the Book Cliffs of
Utah.

2. Bioturbated? Fractured? Mixed lithologies? Not a
problem! Dr. Jaffri’s dissertation focused on Mixed
Carbonate-Siliciclastic-Evaporite systems, therefore
unlike most sedimentologists that either work with
clastics or carbonates, we can work with both end
members or any hybrid with equal ease.
Sedimentology
Our core log will include grain size, bedforms
and sedimentary structures. Besides a graphic
representation you will receive a description,
process interpretation and environment of
deposition report.
Sequence Stratigraphy (Cycles)
We can mark sequence boundaries and
maximum flooding surfaces directly on the core
log and add a column for systems tracts and
fining-coarsening trends (cycles).
Ichnology (trace fossils) and Bioturbation Index
Bioturbation index shows the intensity of
sediment churning and the preservation of
original sedimentary fabric. Bioturbation can
both enhance and degrade reservoir quality and
we recommend a column that shows the
Bioturbation Index such that you can determine
the effect of bioturbation on the porosity and
permeability of your reservoirs.
Fractures
We can document fracture type (extension vs
shear), aperture size, mineral fill, porosity within
fractures, density, intensity, orientation and
determine the stress field in you area of interest.
After having described fractures we can provide a
diagnosis whether fractures might influence
production from your wells. If this is the case, we
then recommend a detailed fracture study. Since
our specialization is restricted to sedimentology
and stratigraphy we recommend you contact the
experts at www.fracturestudies.com
For fluvial strata we can use your core to calculate
channel width, channel belt width and sinuosity
such that you can take these parameters and plug
them directly into Petrel or a geomodeling
software of your choice.
Electrofacies
We can tie core facies with Gamma Ray or bore
hole image logs to create electrofacies. We
understand that its highly likely that the number
of cored wells in your field is miniscule as
compared to the total number of wells.
Electrofacies allow you to correlate with greater
confidence and are an excellent step towards
creating facies logs in geomodeling software.
For carbonates we always integrate core
observations with microfacies analysis using thin-
sections. This allows us to not only provide details
on environments of deposition but porosity types
and their relationship with permeability.
