President’s Column
Spring Greetings!
With only two months left in my term as LGS President, I have been
thinking about the numerous events and changes that I have witnessed in
the last fifty years. In 1965 crude oil was trading in the range of two to
three dollars per barrel and natural gas prices were strictly controlled by
the Federal Power Commission. As a consequence, natural gas was not
considered a viable exploration target by management, unless the prospect was an “elephant.” That same year the Colony Oil Shale Project
was started near Parachute Creek, Colorado, by Tosco and its partners
Standard Oil of Ohio and Cleveland Cliffs Iron Company. Fifty years
ago OPEC was only 5 years old and Alaska’s north slope oil was just an
idea.
The April 15th luncheon speaker, Dr. Kate Giles, Institute of Tectonic
Studies at the University of Texas at El Paso, will talk about “The SaltSediment Interface: Key to Understanding the Dynamic Processes Involved in Salt Diapirism.” Dr. Giles will also address the newly formed
women in geosciences group at ULL, the ”Association for Women Geoscientists.” The association website is http//www.awg.org.
At the March luncheon meeting, Mary Broussard delivered good
news. LGS will receive a check in the amount of $42,347.00 for hosting
the GCAGS Convention last October. The money will be put to good
use in aiding ULL in educating geoscientists. Thank you, Convention
Chair Michael Quinn and all of the hard working volunteers, sponsors,
participants, and attendees who made the Convention a great success.
The current LGS membership will soon receive an email with both the
ballot and membership application/renewal by email. The ballot will
have the names of those who have agreed to stand for election for President-Elect, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and one Director. Nominations from the floor will be accepted at the April meeting. Remember that you must be a paid up member to vote.
See you at the April 15th luncheon.

APRIL LUNCHEON PRESENTATION
The Salt-Sediment Interface: Key to
Understanding the Dynamic Processes
Involved in Salt Diapirism
Dr. Kate Giles,
Institute of Tectonic Studies,
University of Texas–El Paso
Abstract
Salt diapirs may form significant tectonic features within sedimentary basins and are important zones of precious metal concentration, hydrocarbon accumulation, and potential sites for hazardous waste storage. However, our understanding of the processes
associated with these often dynamic systems are poorly constrained. This presentation focuses on the structural and stratigraphic attributes found at the salt-sediment interface zone documented from both outcrop and subsurface datasets and what they
tell us about halokinetic processes.
A common feature to all passively-rising diapirs are halokinetic sequences, which are local, diapir centric, unconformity bound
stratal packages produced by drape folding during the downbuilding process. Two types of halokinetic sequences (HS) and composite halokinetic sequences (CHS) are recognized (Hook HS/
Tabular CHS and Wedge HS/Tapered CHS). The different types
form in response to variable thickness of diapir roof strata that are
subsequently drape folded off the top of the diapir. Roof thickness is controlled by the rate of diapir rise relative to local sediment accumulation rate.
Another feature common to the top salt-sediment interface is
caprock. Caprock has traditionally been interpreted to develop in
a top-salt position during a long-lived, relatively continuous proPAGE 4
cess of halite dissolution by crossflowing undersaturated waters
and accretion of the insoluble residue (primarily anhydrite) by
underplating. The anhydrite caprock may altered to carbonate in
the presence of anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria present within
migrating hydrocarbons. Recent subsurface discoveries of diapirflanking or lateral caprock have been interpreted as forming by
the same dissolution/accretionary process, but with undersaturated basinal waters flowing upward along the diapir flanking saltsediment interface. Outcrop observations of lateral caprock along
the margins of Paradox Basin salt walls suggest original formation in a crestal position and subsequent rotation off the diapir
top during halokinetic drape folding tied to HS/CHS events. Understanding this process increases predictability of presence of
lateral caprock, which is a drilling hazard and reservoir/seal risk
factor in diapir flanking hydrocarbon traps.
Biography
Kate received a B.S. degree in Geology from University of
Wisconsin, an M.S. degree in Geology from the University of Iowa, and her Ph.D. in Geology from the University of Arizona.
After starting her professional career as a Carbonate Research
Scientist at Exxon Production Research Company in Houston in
1991, she shifted to academia and spent 18 years in the Department of Geological Sciences at New Mexico State University,
where she was the recipient in 2009 of the NMSU Distinguished
Career Award. Kate joined the faculty at the University of Texas
at El Paso in 2012 as the Lloyd A. Nelson Professor of Geology,
and Director of the UTEP Institute of Tectonic Studies. Her research interests lie in the fields of sedimentology and stratigraphy
and their relationship to tectonics. She has authored or coauthored over 50 scientific publications, over 150 abstracts, 2
book chapters, edited 2 special volumes, and 2 published fieldtrip
guidebooks. For the past decade, she has been examining the interplay of salt tectonics and sedimentation using outcrops from
localities within the United States, Mexico, Spain, Turkey, and
Australia. She has developed with collaborators the concept of
halokinetic sequence stratigraphy and its application to oil and
gas exploration. Kate has been an AAPG Distinguished Lecturer
and received the prestigious 2012 AAPG Search and Discovery
Award for her compilation of halokinetic sequence stratigraphy
on the AAPG Search and Discovery website.

Samantha Leone, President-Elect Nominee
Samantha Leone earned her undergraduate degree in Geology
& Geophysics from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. After
deciding to pursue a career in the oil industry, she moved to Louisiana and earned her Master’s of Science in Geology at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. During her Master’s studies she
interned with both Orbit Energy and Freeport-McMoRan Oil &
Gas. In 2013, Samantha accepted a full time position with Freeport-McMoran Oil & Gas as a Geophysicist in the deepwater Gulf
of Mexico development team. Samantha served as the LGS Vice
President for the 2014–2015 term and the Treasurer for the 2013–
2014 term.
Justin Guidry, Vice President Nominee
Justin Guidry graduated from the University of
Louisiana at Lafayette with a B.S. in Geology in
May of 2011. He began his career in petroleum
geology by working as a geotech for Shoreline Energy shortly after graduation.
At the end of 2012, he began working full time
as an operations Geologist for Shoreline. He continues his employment with Shoreline as an Operations Geologist, as well as
interpreting data and mapping south Louisiana properties as an
Exploitation Geologist. Justin enjoys golf, running, and plays in
USTA tennis leagues.
Justin served as the LGS Secretary for the 2014–2015 term.
Terri Bannister, Treasurer Nominee
My name is Terri Bannister and I am currently a
M.Sc. Geology student at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. I am originally from Kingsville,
Ontario and I earned my bachelor’s degree from the
University of Waterloo. While at Waterloo, I participated in the cooperative education program,
whereby every four months students alternate between taking classes and work placements. I did
two of my internships with local municipalities doing GIS tasks,
and two with the Canadian Ice Services where I used remote sensing tools to study ice characteristics in the Arctic. After graduation, I spent 15 months in Nova Scotia, where I did an internship
on the Bay of Fundy.
PAGE 9
As the internship in Nova Scotia was concluding, I began looking
for full-time employment and debated between coming to Lafayette, LA, to do contract work for the USGS at the National Wetland Research Center or work for a Canadian exploration company working in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia. I decided to come to
Louisiana because I could get Netflix (Canada did not yet have
Netflix at the time), and the USGS contracting firm was willing to
wait for me to start work by two months while I went backpacking in the Balkans and Eastern Europe. I spent five years working
full-time at the Wetland Center and am co-authored on six remote
sensing journal articles.
While pursuing my M.S. in Geology at UL, I have taken a variety of theoretical to applied geology courses. I am currently in
the subsurface mapping project class; my data pertains to Mystic
Bayou. My thesis work focuses on geohazards in Nepal using
data collected with Dr. Duex and Dr. Poudel. I am currently the
Geo Assistant for the Geosciences Division at C&C Technologies.
Besides my interests in geology, remote sensing, and increasing my tolerance for spicy foods, I am on a mission to visit as
many nations equal to my age (±2). I am currently ahead of
schedule at 34 nations.
Elisabeth Boudreaux, Secretary Nominee
Elisabeth is originally from Thibodaux, LA,
grew up in East Texas, and has been back in the
Lafayette area for some time. In 2006, she received her B.S. in Geology from the University
of Louisiana at Lafayette. She went on to earn
her M.S. in Geology (also from the University of
Louisiana at Lafayette) in 2013, focusing on petrologic/petrographic studies of volcanic rocks from the Big Bend
region. During some of that time (2006–2010), Elisabeth was
employed with the Lafayette Parish Assessor’s Office and worked
with research/ArcGIS in the mapping department. In 2012, she
began teaching classes for the Geology Department at ULLafayette, where she is still currently employed. Elisabeth and
her husband Gary reside in Lafayette with their 3 young children.
