Overburden map and thickness determination, Sunnyside oil-impregnated sandstone deposit, Carbon and Duchesne Counties, Utah (RI-210)

By: J. W. Gwynn

The purposes of this investigation are to a) develop an overburden map for the Sunnyside oil-impregnated sandstone deposit, and b) make a determination of the thickness of the oil-impregnated sands within the deposit.

The data base used in this investigation consists of a) twenty-five oil well or core hole logs or interpretations thereof; four measured sections and other miscellaneous data from UGMS files, and b) UGMS Report of Investigation No. 196 by K. Clem, 1985. A summary of the pertinent data from the logs and measured sections is included. Confidential core hole data received from the BLM were also analyzed in conjunction with this study and were found to be in concurrence with the other, non-confidential data.
