Surface and shallow oil-impregnated rocks and shallow oil fields in the United States | 1965 | oil-impregnated rocks; shallow oil fields; petroleum-impregnated outcrops; tar sands | Petroleum-impregnated outcrops are widespread throughout eastern Utah and less so in the west and southwest. Within and around the periphery of the Uinta Basin, in the northeast are grouped some the best known "tar sands" in the United States, including the Sunnyside, Asphalt Ridge, and Whiterock de... |

Diagenetic and burial history of the Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone in the Tar Sand Triangle, Paradox Basin, southeastern Utah | 1995 | Subsurface petrologic study and burial history reconstruction of the Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone in the Tar Sand triangle on the western edge of the Paradox Basin in southeastern Utah suggest that oil migrated into White Rim reservoirs after significant burial during the early Tertiary. Primar... | |

A model of hydrocarbon generation from type 1 kerogen: Application to the Uinta Basin, Utah | 1986-12-18 | Pyrolysis; Green River shale; Petroleum; Utah; Uinta Basin; Kerogen; Oil; Eocene; Type I kerogen; Hydrocarbon generation; Oil generation; Gas generation; Kinetics | The Uinta Basin in northeastern Utah provides an ideal setting to study the evolution of kerogen to petroleum. Oil shale rocks of the Eocene-age Green River Formation outcrop extensively at the southern edge of the synclinal basin. The same rocks are also found at depths of 3650 m in the deepest par... |

Brief history and recent developments in tar sand deposits of Uinta Basin | 1985 | Commercial production of oil from bituminous sandstones, more commonly referred to as "Tar sands", is considered by many to be a viable project. These so-called "heavy oil" deposits represent a very considerable reserve of oil for the future. The Uinta basin is Mother Nature's storehouse of exotic b... | |

Ground-water flow and migration of hydrocarbons to the Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone, Tar Sand Triangle, southeastern Utah | 1995 | ground-water flow; migration of hydrocarbons; hydrocarbons; Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone; Tar Sand Triangle; heavy oil | The Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone in the Tar Sand Triangle of southeastern Utah contains an estimated 12.5-16 billion barrels of heavy oil. Despite the large size of the deposit, the source of its oil is unknown. This paper systematically discusses source rocks for this petroleum from the standp... |

Dow shale site tracer gas pressurization study | 1977-10 | Systems, Science and Software (S3) has developed tracer gas/ pressurization techniques necessary to determine critical media properties of underground regions. Application of this technology is especially relevant to analysis of an oil shale retort volume. During the period 7 July to 14 July 1977, a... | |
