Abstract:
As generally known, large Permian salt deposits occur in parts of western Kansas. The distribution and thickness of these deposits are of primary importance to the exploration geologist and seismologist as well as the petroleum engineer. Specifically, major salt bodies at shallow depths lend themselves well to the storage of L.P.G. petroleum products, providing there exist effective seals above and below the salt. The Wellington, Cimarron-Stone Corral, and Blaine salt sections may all be used for storage purposes; however, their geographic localities differ somewhat. Salt, varying in thickness and purity, is present in each of the latter groups. Subsequently, this paper will discuss and outline the general thickness and distribution of the Permian salt in each group.
