Cell maps for each oil and gas assessment unit were created by the USGS as a method for illustrating the degree of exploration, type of production, and distribution of production in an assessment unit or province. Each cell represents a quarter-mile square of the land surface, and the cells are coded to represent whether the wells included within the cell are predominantly oil-producing, gas-producing, both oil and gas-producing, dry, or the type of production of the wells located within the cell is unknown. The well information was initially retrieved from the IHS Energy Group, PI/Dwights PLUS Well Data on CD-ROM, which is a proprietary, commercial database containing information for most oil and gas wells in the...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recently completed a comprehensive assessment of in-place oil in oil shales in the Eocene Green River in the Greater Green River Basin, Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. A database was compiled that includes about 47,000 Fischer assays from 186 core holes and 240 rotary drill holes. Most of the oil yield data were analyzed by the former U.S. Bureau of Mines oil shale laboratory in Laramie, Wyoming, and some analyses were made by private laboratories. Total in-place resources for the three assessed units in the Green River Formation are: (1) Tipton Shale Member, 362,816 million barrels of oil (MMBO), (2) Wilkins Peak Member, 704,991 MMBO, and (3) LaClede Bed of the Laney Member, 377,184...

The Assessment Unit is the fundamental unit used in the National Assessment Project for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources. The Assessment Unit is defined within the context of the higher-level Total Petroleum System. The Assessment Unit is shown here as a geographic boundary interpreted, defined, and mapped by the geologist responsible for the province and incorporates a set of known or postulated oil and (or) gas accumulations sharing similar geologic, geographic, and temporal properties within the Total Petroleum System, such as source rock, timing, migration pathways, trapping mechanism, and hydrocarbon type. The Assessment Unit boundary is defined geologically as the limits of the geologic...

The maturation contours show vitrinite reflectance trends and ranges for petroleum system horizons within the Southwestern Wyoming Province. The horizons are the base of the Niobrara Formation, the top of the Frontier Formation, the base of the Mesaverde Formation, the top of the Mesaverde Formation/base of the Lewis Formation, and the top of the Lewis Formation. The ranges of vitrinite reflectance shown for the Niobrara horizons are 0.6, 0.8-1.3, and 1.3. The ranges for the top of the Frontier are less than 0.6, less than 0.8, 0.6-0.8, 0.8-1.3, and greater than 1.3. The ranges for the base of the Mesaverde are less than 0.6, 0.6-0.8, 0.8-1.1, 1.1-2.0, greater than 1.1, greater than 1.3, 2.0-2.2, greater than 2.0,...

Coalbed Methane wells are provided as a method for analysis and illustration of the degree of exploration, type of production, and distribution of production in an assessment unit or province. Each point represents a well location and is symbolized as producing oil, gas, both oil and gas, or other (dry or unknown) using the status code in the attribute table. Data were provided by the Wyoming State Oil and Gas Conservation Commission. See supplemental information section for limitations and assumptions about data.

This report presents the methodology used in the geology-based assessment of the in-place oil resources in 18 oil shale zones of the Eocene Green River Formation in the Uinta Basin of northeastern Utah. The focus is on the methodology used to (1) convert legacy data; (2) analyze the data through application of current computer techniques; and (3) ultimately quantify the resultant data using spreadsheet, database, and geographic information systems (GIS) software.

Monte Carlo programs described in chapter MC, Monte Carlo Simulation Method. Emc2.xls was the program used to calculate the estimates of undiscovered resources for the World Petroleum Assessment 2000. The emcee.xls program is a more generalized version of the program, with options for different distribution types. Directions for the use of both programs are fully documented in chapter MC.

A detailed description of the methodology employed to perform a geology-based assessment of in-place oil shale and nahcolite resources in the Piceance Basin of northwestern Colorado is presented here. Considerable advancements in computer and database technology since the previous oil shale assessment in 1989 provided the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) assessment team with new tools to convert legacy data, store and manipulate new data, perform calculations, and quantify, report, and display the assessment results. Relational database and geographic information systems (GIS) software were used seamlessly to streamline the storage and manipulation of the data. A deterministic spatial interpolation method, the Radial...

This map layer contains the shallowest principal aquifers of the conterminous United States, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, portrayed as polygons. The map layer was developed as part of the effort to produce the maps published at 1:2,500,000 in the printed series "Ground Water Atlas of the United States". The published maps contain base and cultural features not included in these data. This is a replacement for the July 1998 map layer called Principal Aquifers of the 48 Conterminous United States.
