Alpine Oil Field, Alaska: A North Slope Legacy Field and Model for Future Development
 
The Alpine Oil Field is located on the North Slope of Alaska.  It resides approximately 60 miles west of the prolific Prudhoe Bay oil field and is bordered on the west by the National Petroleum Reserve – Alaska (NPR-A).  Discovered in 1994 by ARCO Alaska, Inc (acquired by Phillips Petroleum in 2000), Anadarko Petroleum, and Union Texas Petroleum (acquired by ARCO in 1998), the field has been a hugely successful project for the joint interest owners and has been heralded as a model for future developments in remote and environmentally sensitive areas.  Current joint working interest partners in the field are ConocoPhillips, Alaska (78% WI – Operator) and Anadarko Petroleum (22% WI).

HGS General Luncheon Meeting

The Bossier Play(Tithonian) of the East Texas basin: controls on stratigraphy and play concepts – UPDATE.

Sandy depositional environments in the Bossier Shale (a mud-dominated system) of the East Texas basin range from fluvial to deep water. Their occurrence is controlled by a combination of climate and sea level change.
Sequence/seismic stratigraphic analysis of well logs and 2-D seismic lines from the East Texas basin demonstrates that the Bossier Shale can be subdivided into two sequences separated by a major sequence boundary (SB-2). Bossier Shale is also bracketed by a basal (SB-1) and upper (SB-3) sequence boundary separating it from the Cotton Valley Lime below, and the Cotton Valley Sand above.
