1995 National Oil and Gas Assessment 1/4-Mile Cells within the Los Angeles Basin Province
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The purpose of the cell map is to display the exploration maturity, type of production, and distribution of production in quarter-mile cells in each of the oil and gas plays and each of the provinces defined for the 1995 U.S. National Oil and Gas Assessment.
Description
Cell maps for each oil and gas play were created by the USGS as a method for illustrating the degree of exploration, type of production, and distribution of production in a play or province.
Each cell represents a quarter-mile square of the land surface, and the cells are coded to represent whether the wells included within the cell are predominantly oil-producing, gas-producing, both oil and gas-producing, or dry. The well information was initially retrieved from the Petroleum Information (PI) Well History Control System (WHCS), which is a proprietary, commercial database containing information for most oil and gas wells in the U.S. Cells were developed as a graphic solution to overcome the problem of displaying proprietary WHCS data.

No proprietary data are displayed or included in the cell maps. The data from WHCS were current as of December 1990 when the cell maps were created in 1994. Oil and gas plays within province 14 (Los Angeles Basin) are listed here by play number, type, and name: Number Type Name 1401 conventional Santa Monica Fault System and Las Cienegas Fault and Block 1402 conventional Southwestern Shelf and Adjacent Offshore State Lands 1403 conventional Newport-Inglewood Deformation Zone and Southwestern Flank of Central Syncline 1404 conventional Whittier Fault Zone and Fullerton Embayment 1405 conventional Northern Shelf and Northern Flank of Central Syncline 1406 conventional Anaheim Nose 1407 conventional Chino Marginal Basin, Puente and San Jose Hills, and San Gabriel Valley Marginal Basin
