NMR Analysis of Mowry Formation Shale From Different Sedimentary Basins

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:575245
The work performed in this study is Task 017 `NMR Analysis of Mowry Formation Shale from Different Sedimentary Basins` of U.S. Department of Energy cooperative agreement DE-FC21-93MC30127. This topical report covers work done between November 1993 and December 1994. This jointly sponsored research (JSR) project augments and complements research being conducted by the University of Wyoming Institute For Energy Research for the Gas Research Institute (GRI). The project --A New Innovative Exploitation Strategy for Gas Accumulations Within Pressure Compartments -- is a 3-year renewal of a project funded by the GRI Pressure Compartmentalization Program that began in 1990. That project, Analysis of Pressure Chambers and Seals in the Powder River Basin, Wyoming and Montana, characterized a new class of hydrocarbon traps, the discovery of which can provide an impetus to revitalize the domestic petroleum industry. This research project is pertinent to the U.S. Department of Energy Geoscience and Enhanced Oil Recovery Programs.
