This volume is a compilation of oil and gas field geologic and statistical data for all fields in the API regions of South, Central Coastal and Offshore California. In the Los Angeles Basin oil occurs chiefly in Pliocene and Miocene strata, with smaller amounts in Pleistocene strata and in fractured schist (Cretaceous or older). In the Ventura Basin oil occurs in the Pliocene, Miocene, Oligocene, and Eocene. Smaller amounts of oil are found in lower Pleistocene, Paleocene, and Upper Cretaceous strata. Some dry gas occurs in the Pliocene. In the Santa Maria Basin oil is found chiefly in Pliocene and Miocene strata. In the Ventura--Santa Barbara Offshore Basin oil occurs in the Miocene, Oligocene, and upper Eocene. Gas is found in the lower Miocene. In the Salinas Basin oil occurs in the Miocene. In the Cuyama Basin oil occurs chiefly in Miocene strata with lesser amounts in the Pliocene. Various drilling and production data, including electrical logs are given as of 1-1-1974.
