1995 National Oil and Gas Assessment 1/4-Mile Cells within the San Joaquin 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 10 (San Joaquin Basin) are listed here by play number, type, and name: Number Type Name 1001 conventional Pliocene Non-associated Gas 1002 conventional Southeast Stable Shelf 1003 conventional Lower Bakersfield Arch 1004 conventional West Side Fold Belt Sourced by Post-Lower Miocene Rocks. 1005 conventional West Side Fold Belt Sourced by Pre-Middle Miocene Rocks 1006 conventional Northeast Shelf of Neogene Basin 1007 conventional Northern Area Non-associated Gas 1008 conventional Tejon Platform 1009 conventional South End Thrust Salient 1010 conventional East Central Basin and Slope North of Bakersfield Arch 1011 conventional Deep Overpressured Fractured Rocks of West Side Fold and Overthrust Belt
