• W1982607564 abstract "Structural and depositional history of miogeosynclinal and cratonic areas of the Rocky Mountain-Western Plains region controls petroleum origin and entrapment. Extensive source beds associated with timely traps have characterized exceptional periods of petroleum entrapment--Devonian, late Paleozoic, and Cretaceous. Late Precambrian marine sedimentary rocks were deposited in the Cordilleran geosyncline, and eastward extensions of the sea occupied parts of the region. In the western part of the geosyncline, deposition was continuous into Cambrian time, but on the east a period of erosion was followed by a Middle Cambrian-to-Early Ordovician marine invasion. Major tectonic elements that developed early in Paleozoic time include the Peace River, Alberta, and Transcontinental arches. Middle Ordovician-to-Silurian depositional patterns indicate early development of the Williston basin. The Upper Ordovician-Silurian section is the oldest oil-producing interval; significant production is restricted to the Williston basin. Middle Devonian-Mississippian carbonates and evaporites record another major marine invasion. Upper Devonian reefs, with associated evaporites and marine shale, contain more than half the oil reserves of the northern part of the region (largely in Alberta). Oil and gas in Mississippian rocks are found in bioclastic carbonates (associated with anhydrite), at or near unconformities, and in large anticlines. Southwest of the Williston basin, Devonian and Mississippian oil production is limited, but the potential has not been adequately evaluated. Late Paleozoic rocks have limited distribution in the northern part of the region. Pennsylvanian and Permian tectonic activity (Ancestral Rockies) was most pronounced in the southern part of the region. Pennsylvanian-Permian petroleum is trapped in a wide variety of clastic and carbonate structural and stratigraphic traps in the middle and southern Rockies, and offers many opportunities for future exploration. Triassic miogeosynclinal deposits are restricted to the western edge of the region. Jurassic marine invasions from the Arctic extended as far south as the southern Rockies. Continental deposits dominate the Triassic and Jurassic sequence and account for the relatively small percentage of petroleum reserves in these rocks. During Early Cretaceous time the sea again invaded from the north and in late Early Cretaceous joined a Gulf of Mexico sea. Coastal-plain, deltaic, and shallow-marine clastics that were deposited in this vast seaway form the source and reservoir rocks for some of the largest petroleum accumulations of the region. The present tectonic framework of uplifts, intermontane basins, and thrust faults on the west was formed during Late Cretaceous and early Tertiary time (Laramide orogeny). Many petroleum accumulations that had been stratigraphically trapped before the Laramide orogeny remigrated to their present structural positions. Reconstruction of migration paths should lead to significant additional petroleum discoveries in Cretaceous rocks. Important petroleum accumulations have been found in Tertiary lake deposits of the middle and southern Rockies. Despite their relative shallowness, Tertiary rocks have been very incompletely explored. End_of_Article - Last_Page 468------------" @default.
