Journal Title: Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 21, Issue 6

Abstract

In this paper, some species of the Genus Globorotalia from the study area were identified and taxonomic notes on them were transcribed. The study area is located in Kafe field, offshore western Niger Delta, Nigeria. The clayey and shaly components of the ditch cuttings obtained from five wells at 18.29 m intervals were used. Standard micropaleontological preparation method was used. The identified species of the Genus Globorotalia from the study are Globorotalia mayeri CUSHMAN & ELLISOR, Globorotalia continuosa BLOW, Globorotalia obesa BOLLI, Globorotalia menardii "A" BOLLI and Globorotalia foshi lobata BERMUDEZ.
