Title: Depositional history gives clue to Hackberry production

Journal Article · · World Oil; (United States)
OSTI ID:5131665

The discovery of additional stratigraphic reservoirs within the already-producing Hackberry sandstones of southeast Texas can be enhanced by a thorough understanding of the complexities of both overall channel geometry and the internal heterogeneity of these sands. This geologic assessment locates major submarine channels, describes the geometries of the sandstone bodies, details the evolution of the Hackberry depositional system and discusses resulting hydrocarbon distribution.
