An assessment of oil shale and tar sand development in the state of Utah: Phase 2--policy analysis | 1982 | Oil shale; Tar sand development; Utah; Synthetic fuels; Uintah Basin; Northeastern Utah; Petroleum reserves; Tar sand; Oil; Synthetic Fuel commercialization viability | The potential development of synthetic fuels in the United States has been characterized by a great variation in preceived economies. The interest has been on an upswing during the decade of the 1970's due to the possibility of synthetic fuels lessening U.S. dependence on foreign oil. However, even ... |

An echoing in-situ combustion oil recovery project in a Utah tar sand | 1982 | in-situ combustion; oil recovery project; Utah tar sand; echoing in-situ; U.S. tar sand resources; reverse combustion process; heterogeneous tar sand reservoir | U.S. tar sand resources contain an estimated 30 billion bbl (4.7 Gm3) of oil in place in about 550 occurrences in 22 states. Over 90% of the known resources are in six large deposits in Utah, each containing from 1 to 16 billion bbl (0.15 to 2.5 Gm3) of oil. 1 Four major tar sand deposits in Alberta... |

The oil resources in tar sand deposits in the United States | 1982 | oil resources; tar sand deposits; tar sand oil recovery processes | This report summarizes the data available at the Laramie Energy Technology Center. An effort was made to catalogue U.S. tar sand resources, identify U.S. and state maps showing tar sand deposits, and attempt to compare tar sand oil recovery processes. A review of the available data indicated there w... |

Tongues of the Green River and Uinta Formations in the Piceane Creek Basin | 1982 | Green River formations; Uinta formations; oil shale; thick zones | Lake Uinta achieved its maximum extent durinq the deposition of the Mahogany bed, the richest oilshale unit in the Mahogany zone. Filling of the lake with stream-borne debris began immediately after deposition of the Mahogany bed. The lake gradually constricted from about 20,000 square miles in area... |
