In our endeavors to find new reserves, we sometimes overlook three producing wells and one dry hole. Production from the that which is closest to us. At prospect initiation, West Greene three wells is over 450 barrels of oil per day, at a depth of Field, Renville County, North Dakota had three marginal wells 5400 ft. that were drilled in the 1980s. Oil production was from the The reservoir is an oolitic and peloidal packstone and Blue11 interval of the Mission Canyon Formation grainstone that is trapped updip by a facies change from (Mississippian). In an attempt to extend the field, cores were limestone to impermeable dolomite and anhydrite.

Waulsortian-type carbonate build-ups in the Mississippian subsurface ranges from approximately 130-325 ft (40-100 Lodgepole Formation, Williston Basin, constitute prolific m); in outcrop thickness ranges from less than 30 ft (9 m) oil reservoirs. Subsurface area1 dimensions range seven fields have been discovered: Dickinson Field from approximately 0.5 x 1.0 mile (0.8 x 1.6 km) to 3.5 x (Lodgepole Pool); Eland Field; Duck Creek Field; Versippi 5.5 miles (5.6 x 8.8 km).

Summary Unknown in North Dakota prior to February 1993, Waulsortian-like mounds discovered in the lower Lodgepole are capable of flow rates over 2000 BOPD. The Dickinson Lodgepole unit has produced over 2.1 million BO and 1 BCFG with average per well production of 2027 BOPD. Four other similar reservoirs have been found. High production rates, 45 API oil, and over 100 feet of oil column provide a rapid payout and favorable return on investment. Found at a depths around 9800 feet, mounds form stratigraphic traps sealed laterally and vertically by impermeable argillaceous mudstones and wackestones of the Lodgepole.

The Waulsortian Mounds of the Lodgepole Formation, By elevating various types of seismic anomalies using Williston Basin (Figure 1) present an elusive target that is surface geochemical methods results in the elimination of not easily identified by seismic. The than from a regional standpoint, does not aid in the secondary benefit of using those methods together is the exploration for the prolific mounds. Both 2-D and 3-D discovery of the other prolific pays found in the basin. The need for geochemical surveys used in the Lodgepole Trend in the screening out seismic anomalies that are false or do not Williston Basin. Surface geochemistry, which is not generally pay zone specific, is a tool that can indicate areas of petroleum seepage at the surface and thus focus seismic exploration.

Production in this new play is from carbonate buildups at Recent prolific oil discoveries from Lodgepole approximately 10,000 feet (3030m). This paper chronicles (Mississippian) carbonate buildups near the town of a systematic investigation into the feasibility of using Dickinson, North Dakota in the Williston Basin have refIection seismology to detect these features by conducting ignited an intense new round of exploration in this mature zero offset raytrace modeling studies.

For example, Lodgepole Mounds near Dickinson in Stark County, North Dakota, are relatively low porosity carbonate In the real world of oil exploration, seismic data (whether bodies and associated thin shales encased in shaly analog 2D, digital 2D, swath 2D/3D, 3D or 4D data) are carbonate rocks. These mounds are not easily found by judged by the results obtained by using the data. The subsurface mapping, interpreting existing 2D seismic or recognition and display of stratigraphic features in seismic even newly acquired 3D seismic data (as shown by dry data are sometimes overlooked in the modem high-tech holes located on 3D data). They are difficult to see in world of geophysical work stations and 3D data bases.
