Abstract
Ben South (Tannehill) Oil Field, Stonewall County, Texas
Abstract
Ben South is one of 157 Tannehill oil fields on the northeastern shelf of the Permian Basin. Texas Railroad Commission District 7B has 66 Tannehill oil fields while District 8A has 21.
The discovery well for the Ben South Field was the Ryder Scott Management (Sauder) No. 1 McMeans, completed in 1973. Ben South Field production has totaled 749,340 BO through March 1983 from 13 wells.
Oil production is from the lower Tannehill (lower Wolfcamp) sands underlying the Stockwether Limestone. These Tannehill sands were deposited in a fluvial environment. Channel-fill and point-bar deposits make up the pay sands. The trapping mechanism is both stratigraphic and structural.
