Structural-stratigraphic setting of South Freshwater Bayou Prospect, Vermilion Parish, Louisiana

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7369462
The primary reservoir targets in South Freshwater Bayou Prospect are sands whose deposition appears to have been structurally controlled. The growth of a deep domal feature localized deepwater sand deposition on its flanks, thereby producing a significant thickness of subsequently geopressured sandstone. The area is, therefore, not only prospective in its own right, but provides an exploration model for other geopressured-geothermal prospects.
