Two major tar sand zones exist in the Flat Rock Mesa area and have net thicknesses ranging from 55 to 81 ft. The overall tar sand section has good porosity, averaging 20.2 pet of bulk volume; fair permeability before and after oil extraction, averaging 150 and 325 md, respectively; and low average oil saturation, 29-7 pet of pore volume. Average gravity of the oil is S.k° API. Average sulfur and nitrogen content are 0.45 and 0.73 weight pet, respectively. |
