Abstract:
Oil and gas can not accumulate into pools until a trap has been formed in the potential reservoir rock and the capacity of the trap to hold gas increases as the pressure continues to increase due to deeper burial. The laws of Boyle and Charles, when applied to the Oklahoma City field in Oklahoma, a field typical in its geologic history of many others in the Mid-Continent region, indicates that while the accumulation may have commenced shortly after the sealing of the pre-Pennsylvanian structure by the Cherokee shales, it could not have been completed until the area had been buried to almost its present depth with the consequent increase in pressure. These principles apply to many situations and give a better understanding of the life history of not only oil and gas pools ut basins and provinces as well.
