Abstract
Stratigraphic Relationships in the Palo Duro–Hardeman Basin Area
Abstract
A low drilling density, variety and vintage of logs on wells drilled, and difficult regional correlations in Pennsylvanian rocks have contributed to poor oil-finding results in the Palo Duro Basin. As a result the area has had a bad name in the industry. Stratigraphic equivalents of Palo Duro Basin rocks, ranging from the Ordovician to the Permian, produce in fringing areas or in nearby basins.
The region has had a complex geologic history. Source beds, reservoir-quality rocks, and large structures are present, but it appears that most oil to be found will be largely in stratigraphic traps.
