Book Shale oil resource play potential of the Green River Formation Uinta Basin Utah

Download or read book Shale oil resource play potential of the Green River Formation Uinta Basin Utah written by Steven Schamel and published by Utah Geological Survey. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green River Formation in the Uinta Basin has may characteristics typical of an ideal shale oil resource play. It is a world-class oil-prone source rock. In nearly all parts of the basin there are many thousands of net feet of Type-l and Type-ll kerogen-rich calcareous mudstones, many intervals of which have average total organic carbon (TOC) of 5-10% or greater. In the north-central and western parts of the basin a substantial part of the formation is in the oil-generative window. Furthermore, organic maturation simulations done in this study using PRA BasinView-3D™ indicates early entry into the oil-generative window. In the northwest parts of the basin the lower Green River Formation was generating oil even before the end of the Eocene and slowing of sediment accumulation in the basin. The Green River Formation is unquestionably a superb petroleum system responsible for very large cumulative production of oil and associated natural gas, and an even larger potential oil sand resource. This DVD contains a 65-page report.

Book Stratigraphy and Paleolimnology of the Green River Formation Western USA

Download or read book Stratigraphy and Paleolimnology of the Green River Formation Western USA written by Michael Elliot Smith and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a suite of detailed stratigraphic and sedimentologic investigations of the Eocene Green River Formation of Wyoming, Colorado and Utah, one of the world’s foremost terrestrial archives of lacustrine and alluvial deposition during the warmest portion of the early Cenozoic. Its twelve chapters encompass the rich and varied record of lacustrine stratigraphy, sedimentology, geochronology, geochemistry and paleontology. Chapters 2-9 provide detailed member-scale synthesis of Green River Formation strata within the Greater Green River, Fossil, Piceance Creek and Uinta Basins, while its final two chapters address its enigmatic evaporite deposits and ichnofossils at broad, interbasinal scale.

Book Primary Oil shale Resources of the Green River Formation in the Eastern Uinta Basin Utah

Download or read book Primary Oil shale Resources of the Green River Formation in the Eastern Uinta Basin Utah written by and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resources of potential oil in place in the Green River Formation are measured and estimated for the primary oil-shale resource area east of the Green River in Utah's Uinta Basin. The area evaluated (Ts 7-14 S, Rs 19-25 E) includes most of, and certainly the best of Utah's oil-shale resource. For resource evaluation the principal oil-shale section is divided into ten stratigraphic units which are equivalent to units previously evaluated in the Piceance Creek Basin of Colorado. Detailed evaluation of individual oil-shale units sampled by cores, plus estimates by extrapolation into uncored areas indicate a total resource of 214 billion barrels of shale oil in place in the eastern Uinta Basin.

Book Isopach and Isoresource Maps for Oil Shale Deposits in the Eocene Green River Formation for the Combined Uinta and Piceance Basins Utah and Colorado

Download or read book Isopach and Isoresource Maps for Oil Shale Deposits in the Eocene Green River Formation for the Combined Uinta and Piceance Basins Utah and Colorado written by U. S. Department U.S. Department of the Interior and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-04-28 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The in-place oil shale resources in the Eocene Green River Formation of the Piceance Basin of western Colorado and the Uinta Basin of western Colorado and eastern Utah are estimated at 1.53 trillion barrels and 1.32 trillion barrels, respectively. The oil shale strata were deposited in a single large saline lake, Lake Uinta, that covered both basins and the intervening Douglas Creek arch, an area of comparatively low rates of subsidence throughout the history of Lake Uinta. Although the Green River Formation is largely eroded for about a 20-mile area along the crest of the arch, the oil shale interval is similar in both basins, and 17 out of 18 of the assessed oil shale zones are common to both basins.
