Petroleum potential of the Tilston interval (Mississippian) of central North Dakota
… of the interval. </p><p> The assessment of the petroleum potential of the Tilston interval revealed four potential types of hydrocarbon traps. The first two types, paleogeomorphic and wedge-out, are located at the subcrop portion of the Tilston interval. The third type of trap is due to a …

Geology and Petroleum Potential of the Hay Creek Anticline, North-Central Oregon
… and erosion between orogenic events.</p> <p>The petroleum potential of the "Hay Creek Formation" is good. The total organic carbon in the siltstones, the kerogens and the maturity indicators suggest that oil and/or gas has been produced from these rocks. Shallow exploration drilling in the area …

Depositional History and Petroleum Potential of the Middle Devonian Fort Vermilion Formation, Alberta
… level rise normal marine conditions ensued. The petroleum potential of the Fort Vermilion Formation was also investigated, though it was determined that the absence of organic matter (indicated by very low TOC values) prevented the generation of any substantial amount of hydrocarbons.

Stratigraphy, depositional environments, and petroleum potential of the Three Forks Formation -- Williston Basin, North Dakota
The hydrocarbon potential of the Three Forks Formation in North Dakota is poorly known due to limited stratigraphic, geochemical, and petrophysical data. This study presents a methodology and results of a reservoir characterization study of the stratigraphy, lithofacies distribution, petroleum …

Jurassic stratigraphy of the southern two-thirds of North Dakota
… sandstones appear to be the most promising for petroleum potential, although to date no oil has been discovered in the Jurassic rocks within the study area. The Poe Member may contain gypsum at the eastern edge of the basin. The Dunham beds are a potential source of salt in western North …
