New technology including, but not limited to, 3-D seismic and horizontal drilling is having a profound effect on exploration and exploitation in the Mid Continent. However, 3-D seismic is not the complete answer, and in some cases, such as areas in Southern Oklahoma, the geology is so complex it

is not even applicable. In SW Kansas, a thorough knowledge of geomorphic principles is necessary in order to achieve success using the new technology. In all areas of the Mid-Continent, applied geology integrated with new technology is bringing success to the exploration and exploitation efforts of those geologists working the area.
