Analysis of reservoir properties of faulted and fractured eolian thrust-belt reservoirs (OFR-529)

By: D. Keele and J. Evans

The focus of this study is the sedimentary and structural petrography and petrology of the Jurassic Nugget Sandstone in northeastern Utah and southwestern Wyoming. Approximately 2700 ft of core from three wells were described and sampled for petrographic analyses, and these data were combined with existing porosity and permeability data to determine the relationships among lithology, depositional setting, diagenesis, and the style of deformation in the Nugget Sandstone. This is a full report of analyses and results and detailed description of core from select wells in the Anschutz Range East field.
