Data on Kansas oil and gas production are available through the KGS interactive oil and gas field map. In support of the CO 2 sequestration and enhanced oil recovery project, the Data Resources Library added a large quantity of new oil and gas records and data to its online database, and the Drill Core Library added important new collections to ...
Heinemann Oil GmbH John Clements Davis (born October 21, 1938) is an American geologist best known for his research in the application of statistics to geology . He spent almost his entire professional career with the Kansas Geological Survey , being an Emeritus Scientist since 2003. [ 1 ]
The basin holds one of the most prolific natural gas reserves in North America, with ultimate gas production in excess of 100 trillion cubic feet (2,800 km 3) of gas. [3] In 2010, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated that the Anadarko Basin held 27.5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 410 million barrels of natural gas liquids (NGL). [ 4 ]
These structures are important in controlling the vast deposits of petroleum and natural gas in the state. The Central Kansas Uplift is a broad arch in the rocks of west-central Kansas. The rock units within this arch have been major oil producers. The Anadarko Basin of southwest Kansas contains significant natural gas. The Sedgwick Basin, the ...
Kansas geologists attempted to carry these classifications into the state; but, the state has since abandoned the three divisions. Like the remainder of High Plains states, Kansas considers the Ogallala to be a formation. [3] However, it is convenient to informally divide the Ogallala into the three general zones with these names: [5]
In 1922 the well was completed as a gas well, but there was little demand for natural gas in the area and it was years before another gas well was drilled in the field. [ 3 ] In 1927, gas was discovered at the Independent Oil and Gas Company's Crawford No. 1, [ 4 ] [ 2 ] about 2,600 feet (790 meters) below the surface southwest of Hugoton ...
The Cottonwood is the main facing material for the campus buildings of Kansas State University. [4] The Topeka Performing Arts Center [12] as well as much of the Kansas State Capitol [9] and the Great Overland Station [13] in Topeka, Kansas are constructed with Cottonwood Limestone.
TGS, formerly TGS NOPEC Geophysical Company ASA [2] is an energy data and analytics company. It gathers, interprets, and markets seismic and geophysical data regarding subsurface terrains worldwide in order to evaluate oil and gas formations for drilling operations. [3]
