Random Note On Meteorite Impact Structures -- June 2, 2019

Remember that post on the Jurassic on May 27, 2019? Link here.

I had forgotten this but stumbled across it looking for something else.

Because of poor understanding of impact structures by petroleum geoscientists and engineers the petroleum potential of meteorite impact structures has been overlooked.
Meteorite impacts can create large reservoirs through fracturing and brecciation. Shock deformation can even produce reservoirs in crystalline rocks that are normally not considered a target for petroleum exploration. Hydrocarbons have been found at a number of impact structures and provide good guidelines for expecting oil production from the probable Bouscaren impact structure.
Discovered in 1972, Red Wing Creek field in North Dakota is an Early Jurassic meteorite impact crater that has produced more than 18 million barrels of oil and more that 25 Bcf gas from 26 wells. One well drilled in 1974 has produced about 3.5 million barrels of oil. Some wells could produce thousands of barrels of oil per day but are restricted because of mechanical constraints.
The Red Wing Creek area is south of the US Highway 85 between Alexander and Watford City, ND. 

The well to which RMOJ was referring:
  • 5286, 741, True Oil LLC, Red Wing Creek Unit 13-27, Red Wing Creek, Madison formation, t2/74, cum 3.011583 million bbls 4/19;
Sundry forms:
  • August 18, 2017: name changed from Burlington Northern 13-27 to Red Wing Creek Unit 13-27
