Geostatistics and Spatial Modelling in Soil Science: A Critical Appraisal of Methods, Advantages, Inconveniences and Applications

Primus Azinwi Tamfuh, Bertrand Kenzong, Hassan Yap Mfouapon, Colete Nyuongo Nayah, Chantal Kuh Ful, Evariste Désiré Moundjeu, Georges Simplice Kouedeu Kameni, Achille Ibrahim, Joseph Zetekouang Guepi Vounang & Dieudonné Bitom · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

Soil properties vary continuously across space and time, making spatial prediction at unsampled locations fundamental to soil science. Geostatistics has provided a coherent framework for quantifying, mapping and communicating this variation for several decades. However, its role...

Reservoir Characterization and Petrophysical Analysis of “Brown Field” in the Southern Niger Delta, Nigeria

Veronica E. Ibanga, Thomas A. Harry, Ekpedeme R. Asuaiko & Tejumade A. Owoeye · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

Accurate reservoir characterisation is essential for understanding the distribution, quality, and structural controls of hydrocarbon-bearing formations. In the Niger Delta, integration of petrophysical well-log analysis with 3-D seismic interpretation provides a basis for evaluat...

From Basin to Prospect: Integrating Gravity-based Sediment-thickness Estimation and 3-D Seismic Structural Interpretation for Hydrocarbon Exploration in the Southeastern Niger Delta, Nigeria

Aniekan E. Ekpo & David A. Isaac · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

The southeastern flank of the Niger Delta remains one of Nigeria’s most promising yet comparatively under-explored hydrocarbon frontiers. This study brings together two complementary geophysical investigations of the area: a regional gravity survey and a field-scale three-dimensi...

Porosity and Formation Factor in Coastal Sands: Micro-CT Insights into Grain-Scale Controls and Clay Influence

Mohammed Ali Garba · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

An experimental and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) study of the relationship between porosity and electrical formation factor (FF) is presented for a suite of coastal sands. Beach sands from Scarborough and Cottesloe (Western Australia) were analysed to determine bulk poros...
