Reservoir Analysis of the Clinton Interval in Stark and Summit Counties, Ohio The characteristics of a sandstone reservoir of Silurian age (the “Clinton interval”) were analyzed using 382 geophysical well logs from the Dominion Gas storage field located in Stark and Summit Counties, Ohio. These sandstones have long been identified by the informal drillers’ terms, White, Red, and Stray Clinton. Gamma ray logs were used to analyze the distribution of net stand thickness and its relation to initial production through the construction of isopach and net sand isolith maps. I constructed eight cross sections to identify and correlate the tops of three prominent sandstones and two marine flooding surfaces to evaluate reservoir compartmentalization and stratigraphic controls on production. The data indicate that areas with higher production are not entirely controlled by lithology. The seismic signature of the Clinton interval is controlled by thin bed tuning associated with side lobe interference. Multiple seismic signatures are created by differences in velocity and lithologic thickness. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page 1.0 INTRODUCTION ...................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Clinton Interval Description and Location ........................................................... 2 1.2 Previous Investigation of the Clinton Throughout Ohio....................................... 4 1.2.1 Structural and Stratigraphic Setting ................................................. 4 1.2.2 Reservoir Units ...................................................................................... 4 1.2.3 Production .............................................................................................. 5 1.2.4 Lithology ................................................................................................ 6 1.2.5 Depositional History .............................................................................. 7 1.2.6 Seismic ................................................................................................... 8 2.0 DATA COLLECTION AND PREPARATION ......................................................... 9 2.1 Petrel Stratigraphic Tops Interpretation ...............................................................10 3.0 RESERVOIR COMPARTMENTALIZATION ........................................................12 3.1 Northwest Southeast Dip Sections .......................................................................14 3.2 North South Strike Sections .................................................................................15 4.0 CLINTON INTERVAL ISOPACH MAPS ...............................................................17 5.0 CLINTON INTERVAL NET SAND ISOLITH MAPS ............................................28 5.1 Normalization of Gamma-Ray Curve ..................................................................28 5.2 Discrete Log .........................................................................................................29 5.3 Clinton Interval Isoliths greater than 50% Clean Sand ........................................29 iv 5.4 Clinton Interval Isoliths greater than 75% Clean Sand ........................................40 6.0 PRODUCTION VS.

  • Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes
    35133_Geo_Michigan_Cover.qxd 11/13/07 10:26 AM Page 1 “The Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes” is written to augment any introductory earth science, environmental geology, geologic, or geographic course offering, and is designed to introduce students in Michigan and the Great Lakes to important regional geologic concepts and events. Although Michigan’s geologic past spans the Precambrian through the Holocene, much of the rock record, Pennsylvanian through Pliocene, is miss- ing. Glacial events during the Pleistocene removed these rocks. However, these same glacial events left behind a rich legacy of surficial deposits, various landscape features, lakes, and rivers. Michigan is one of the most scenic states in the nation, providing numerous recre- ational opportunities to inhabitants and visitors alike. Geology of the region has also played an important, and often controlling, role in the pattern of settlement and ongoing economic development of the state. Vital resources such as iron ore, copper, gypsum, salt, oil, and gas have greatly contributed to Michigan’s growth and industrial might. Ample supplies of high-quality water support a vibrant population and strong industrial base throughout the Great Lakes region. These water supplies are now becoming increasingly important in light of modern economic growth and population demands. This text introduces the student to the geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes region. It begins with the Precambrian basement terrains as they relate to plate tectonic events. It describes Paleozoic clastic and carbonate rocks, restricted basin salts, and Niagaran pinnacle reefs. Quaternary glacial events and the development of today’s modern landscapes are also discussed.
