4 Green River oil shale potential in Utah1963-01Green River oil shale; oil shale potential; oil shale; Green River formation; oil reserves; oil shale extractionThe Green River formation of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming contains the greatest potential reserves of oil in the world. The problem has been that of finding an economical method of extraction. The first economic study of the oil shale in Utah started in 1913 (Woodruff and Day, 1914). Since that time ...
5 Land and resource management issues relevant to deploying in-situ thermal technologies: Topical Report: October 1, 2009 to December 31, 20102011-01in-situ; oil shale; domestic energy source; oil sandsUtah is home to oil shale resources containing roughly 1.3 trillion barrels of oil equivalent and our nation's richest oil sands resources. If economically feasible and environmentally responsible means of tapping these resources can be developed, these resources could provide a safe and stable dome...
6 Model codes and analysis tools for quality growthThe following ordinance is designed as an OVERLAY zone for sensitive areas. It depends on a map, adopted as a zoning overlay map, that identifies the approximate areas where the sensitive lands will be located. The areas are described in this workbook. For the methods and sources of data that may be...
7 Basin-wide evaluation of the uppermost Green River Formation's oil-shale resource, Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado2008Green River; Uinta Basin; Utah; Colorado; Crude oil; Green River Formation; Oil; Gas; Oil yield; Oil shale; Oil-shale thickness; Mahogany zone; R-7; Parachute Creek Member; Richness grade; Uintah County; Salt Lake Base Line and Meridian; BLM; U.S. Bureau of Land ManagementDue to the recent increase in crude oil prices and concerns over diminishing conventional reserves, the Utah Geological Survey has reexamined the Uinta Basin's oil-shale resource, primarily in the Mahogany zone of the Green River Formation. Past assessments, the first conducted in 1964 and subsequen...
8 Urban planning tools for quality growth2000Formed in January of 1997, Envision Utah is a public/private community partnership dedicated to studying the effects of long-term growth in the Greater Wasatch Area of northern Utah. Sponsored by the Coalition for Utah's Future, Envision Utah and its partners - with extensive input from the public -...
9 Lithofacies and related hydrocarbon accumulations in Tertiary strata of the western and central Uinta Basin, Utah1975lithofacies; hydrocarbon accumulations; Tertiary strata; Uinta Basin; stratigraphyStrata of Tertiary age in the Uinta Basin were deposited in an internally drained depression. They can be divided into (1) a central core of organic-rich open lacustrine claystone and mud-supported carbonate surrounded by (2) marginal lacustrine sandstone, claystone and mud- and grain-supported carb...
10 Depositional setting and preliminary oil-shale resource potential, southwestern Uinta Basin, Utah1982Oil shale; Uinta Basin; Utah; Green River; Oil yield; Lake Uinta; Mohogany zone; Kerogen; Sheep Pass; Elko Basins; Nevada; Strawberry Structure; Strawberry ReservoirThis report characterizes the potential oil-shale resources underlying those lands west of the Green River in the southwestern Uinta Basin, Utah. The principal evaluation technique has been the calculation of oil yield from oil-well sonic and density log data available in this area. Subsurface corre...
11 Gilsonite and related hydrocarbons of the Uinta Basin, Utah1949glisonite; hydrocarbons; Uinta Basin; kerogen; bitumenHydrocarbons are important in the present study for two reasons: ( 1) An understanding of their nature and origin may lead to a better understanding of the oil possibilities in the area. (2) From gilsonite, kerogen, and associated bituminous substances there may be fractionated many still-undiscover...
12 Utah data guide a newsletter for data users1998Utah's seven associations of government (AOGs)1 have produced these city and unincorporated area population projections for each year from 1997 through 2002 and for the years 2010 and 2020. These are consistent with the county population projections produced by the Governor's Office of Planning and ...
13 Investigation of tar sand and heavy oil deposits of Utah for underground coal gasification applications1985-12tar sand; heavy oil deposits; underground coal gasification; UCG applicationsA literature review was conducted to determine spatial and geological relationships between Utah's tar sand or heavy oil deposits and coal deposits and to evaluate these relationships in terms of suitability for underground coal gasification (UCG) applications. The investigation was undertaken as pa...
14 Tar-sand resources of the Uinta Basin, Utah: A catalog of deposits1996-05tar sand; oil-impregnated sandstone; tar sand resources; solid hydrocarbon deposits; bitumous sandstoneTar-sand, or oil-impregnated sandstone, deposits and occurrences of the Uinta Basin, Utah are summarized and presented. Twenty five tar-sand deposits/occurrences are reviewed with respect to geology, locations of bitumen saturated outcrops, land ownership, physiography, bitumen-analyses, development...
15 Policy analysis of water availability and use issues for domestic oil shale and oil sands development: Topical Report: October 1, 2009 to March 31, 20102010-03oil shale/sands resources; energy source; unconventional fuels; water demands; water availability; domestic oil shale/sands development; topical reportOil shale and oil sands resources located within the intermountain west represent a vast, and as of yet, commercially untapped source of energy. Development will require water, and demand for scarce water resources stands at the front of a long list of barriers to commercialization. Water requiremen...
16 Potential hydrologic impacts of a tar-sand industry in 11 special tar sand areas in eastern Utah1983crude oil tar-sand deposits; U.S. Bureau of Land Management; Tar Sand Triangle area; hydrolic impactAbout 93 percent of the Nation's estimated 30 billion barrels of crude oil in tar-sand deposits is in 11 areas in eastern Utah that were chosen for leasing by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. The largest deposit, which is in the Tar Sand Triangle area, contains about 15 billion barrels of oil. Th...
