Developing large acreage positions of unconventional and conventional oil and gas resources
>I like this presentation from Matt Silverman Exploration Manager Robert L. Bayless Producer LLC and Sweetpea Petroleum
Those images give a good overall view of the permit areas, but you need to look a lot closer to see what all of the excitement may be about. One of the main areas of interest is the 'Arnold Arch", in the north-east.
"The Arnold Arch along the eastern edge of the basin is a likely catchment area for substantial volumes of hydrocarbons."
Here's a closeup of the area, and a seismic image. The green areas in the seismic are structural closures (a possible conventional trap).
Take note of the "Direct oil migration route"
