A multidisciplinary approach to reservoir characterization of the coastal Entrada erg-margin gas play, Utah (OFR-459)

By: T. H. Morris, J. H. McBride, and W. D. Monn

This CD has a 50-page report that discusses the reservoir characteristics of erg-margin sandstones in the Middle Jurassic Entrada Sandstone. The approximate north-south trend of the Entrada erg-margin is mapped and sandstone body geometries were analyzed using: (1) two shallow, high-resolution seismic reflection profiles, (2) outcrop photo mosaics, and (3) a measured section in the case-study area near Notom, Utah.

Interpretations of meso- and macro-scale significant surfaces and features are described with accompanying plots of grain size, paleocurrent analyses, and descriptions of primary and secondary structures, and photomicrographs. The stratigraphic measured section includes gamma-ray scintillometer readings that are compared to Entrada producing wells in Flat Rock field in the Uinta Basin.
