The Kinsler Gas Field in Morton County, Kansas, is located in the Hugoton Embayment on a faulted structure and covers a productive area of approximately 14,000 acres. The primary gas production is from stratigraphic traps in the Pennsylvanian Morrow sandstones flanking the structure and on the downthrown side of the "Kinsler Fault". Structural Pennsylvanian Des Moines, Pennsylvanian Atoka, and Mississippian St. Louis carbonates account for the remainder of the reserves. Oil reserves are negligible to date. Field rules for well spacing and allowables have been established by the Kansas Corporation Commission. The gas is currently being purchased by the Kansas Power & Light Co. for an intrastate market.
