Painter Reservoir, East Painter Reservoir, and Clear Creek fields are part of a series of recent major hydrocarbon discoveries in the Thrust Belt Province of NE. Utah-SW. Wyoming that began with the discovery of the Pineview field in Utah. Oil and gas production in the fields is from the Triassic-Jurassic Nugget Sandstone. There the Nugget is a varicolored, fine- to medium-grained quartz arenite believed to be of eolian origin. Core porosity averages 12.5% and core permeability averages ca 5.4 md. All 3 fields occur in reverse-faulted, asymmetric folds on the hanging wall of the Absaroka thrust and overlie Cretaceous source rocks. The Painter Reservoir and Clear Creek structures are much steeper on the east whereas the East Painter structure is much steeper on the west.
