... in the Upper Cretaceous contribute to the effective petroleum systems in the basin. With an understanding of all possible generating source rocks in the Upper Cretaceous, an oil to source rock correlation, oil-to-oil correlation, and production allocation in the drainage reservoir is investigated. Weld County...

... basin-centered gas fairway beginning at 2000m and continuing to over 4500m in depth. This fairway steps down from the basin margins into the depths of the Fitzroy Trough and is analogous and correlative to a similar petroleum system that hosts significant gas discoveries on the opposite margin...

... are targeted through horizontal drilling – the Niobrara (A-C Chalks) and Codell formations. The Niobrara consists of alternating chalk and marl units, whereas the Codell Formation consists of a clay-rich sandstone; both were deposited within the Interior Cretaceous Seaway. The petroleum system is overpressured...

... approach based on data from more than 1600 recently drilled wells, integrated into a 3D petroleum systems model. Numerous iterations were conducted to simulate heat flow in the study area. The simulated heat flow calibrated to vitrinite reflectance data from 26 wells suggests that a slight increase...

... Abstract The lower and upper Bakken shales are world class source rocks in the Williston Basin, sourcing reservoirs in the Bakken, upper Three Forks, and lower Lodgepole formations, which comprise the economically significant Bakken Petroleum System (BPS). 10 to 400 billion barrels of oil have...
