ABSTRACT

This paper presents a summary of the history, geology, and development of the Fulton Beach Area, Aransas Country, Texas. The discovery well was completed July 7, 1947, and development has been continuous since.

The structure is a faulted anticline with all production to date being on the westward-dipping flank. The maximum dimensions of the productive area are three by five miles. Production is from sands in the Frio Formation. There are numerous productive sands, and they range in depth from 6800 to 8350 feet.

Nearby productive areas are described. These lie North, West and possibly East of the Fulton Beach Field.

Producing characteristics of the sands, and total estimated reserves are presented.
