Lithofacies, Sequence Stratigraphy, and Sedimentology of Desert Creek Platform, Slope, and Basin Carbonates, Southern Margin of the Aneth Complex, Middle Pennsylvanian, Paradox Basin, Utah

The Aneth Field in the Paradox Basin (SE Utah) has produced nearly 500 MMbbls of oil from phylloid-algal and oolitic carbonate reservoirs of the lower and upper Desert Creek (Paradox Formation, Middle Pennsylvanian) sequences, respectively. The oil resides in a 150 to 200 foot-thick isolated carbona...
