Abstract: Regional Depositional
System
of the
Vicksburg Formation
![Previous Hit](/data/images/arrow_left.gif)

By
The lower Oligocene Vicksburg Formation of the Texas Gulf
Coastal Plain contains major petroleum
reservoirs in the
Rio Grande Embayment and the Houston Embayment. Several
discoveries in these areas over the past few years have led to
renewed interest in the potential for undiscovered fields in the
embayments as well as in the San Marcos Arch region.
Knowledge of the depositional systems distribution during
Vicksburg times is essential to understanding sand concentration
and is fundamental to effective exploration and production
of the section.
