The Camp Creek oil field is located in T54N, R70-71W, Campbell County, Wyoming. A tabulation of geologic and production data is presented, including reservoir characteristics and estimated ultimate recovery. Annual and cumulative production figures are given for the years 1962-1967. Oil is produced at a depth of 7,400 ft from a stratigraphic trap in the Minnelusa Sandstone (Permian). The producing sand has an average net thickness of 15.6 ft and porosity of 18%. Since discovery in July 1962, the field has produced nearly 2 million bbl of 24/sup 0/ gravity oil, with an estimated ultimate primary reserve of 3 million bbl. Reservoir pressure dropped from 2,585 lb to 1,130 bl during the first 6 yr of production. The field is under water drive. A structure map, an isopach map, and a correlated stratigraphic cross section are included.
