ABSTRACT

The Bureau of Mines (Morgantown Petroleum Research Laboratory) conducted a preliminary reservoir study of the Clinton Sand, East Canton oilfield, Stark, Carroll and Tuscarawas Counties, Ohio. This report contains a review of the geology and depositional origin of the Clinton Sand in the field, and an estimate of primary and secondary crude oil recovery. The results of this study indicate that waterflood recovery could range from 136,000 to 320,000 barrels for a 40-acre drainage area. Secondary recovery by waterflooding would represent a significant gain over primary recovery.
