Las formaciones esponjiolíticas del Dogger de la región Vasco-Cantábrica: Características y posibilidades petrolíferas

Siliceous sponges occur in the western Basque-Cantabrian region at two stratigraphic intervals: at the Lower Bajocian they appear in small mounds (less than 1 m.) isolated within a predominantly marllimestone succession; an at the Upper Bajocian (Parkinsoni Biozone) as larger bioherms and biostromes...

Sumario:Siliceous sponges occur in the western Basque-Cantabrian region at two stratigraphic intervals: at the Lower Bajocian they appear in small mounds (less than 1 m.) isolated within a predominantly marllimestone succession; an at the Upper Bajocian (Parkinsoni Biozone) as larger bioherms and biostromes, within an extensive carbonate platform. The latter is up to 20 m. thick and a better hydrocarbon target than the Lower Bajocian mounds, mainly as fractured reservoirs. An example is described where local tectonics have determined a pervasive fracturation of these rocks, thus creating an important secondary porosity
