Figure 29.
Distribution of Eocene play fairways. Although sediment supply was dropping off as basin subsidence drove base-level rise, transgression, and reduced levels of sediment supply, sandstones continued to reach the basin to form important reservoirs. Middle Eocene clastic reservoirs represent the last main prospective interval before drowning of the basin margins cut off sediment supply and the deposition of a regional seal. Undif. = undifferentiated.
