Carey, K B

This study, Appendix V, addresses the Gusher Sands and their sub units and pools. Basic pressure, production and assorted technical dta were provided by the US Department of Energy staff at Elk Hills. These data were accepted as furnished with no attempt made by Evans, Carey and Crozier for independent verification. This study has identified the petrophysical properties and the past productive performance of the reservoir. Primary reserves have been determined and general means of enhancing future recovery have been suggested. It is hoped that this volume can now additionally serve as a take off points for exploitation engineers to develop specific programs towards these ends. 16 refs., 9 tabs.
