Unconventional Energy Resources: 2013 Review Figure 21. Location of shallow, heavy oil accumulations on the North Slope of Alaska. Heavy oil deposits overlie the Kuparuk field and parts of the Prudhoe and Milne Point fields and occur in sands within the Ugnu, West Sak and Schrader Bluff formations. Source: Gordon Pospisil, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc., January 6, 2011. northeast prograding Brooks Range coastal plain (Hulm et al. 2013). Production of viscous (50–5000 cp) oil from the West Sak pools began in the early 1990s, reaching the current level of 4,000–5,000 BBLs (636–795 m3) of oil per day in 2004. To date, over 100 million BBLs (15.9 million m3) have been recovered from the formation using a combination of vertical wells and water flood. The heavy oil in the Ugnu Sands presents a much greater technical challenge due to its higher viscosity (5,000 to over 20,000 cp) and the friability of the reservoir sand. At its Milne Point S- Pad Pilot, BP Alaska is testing two different recov- ery strategies in the Ugnu Sands. One pilot is pumping from the heel of a cased and perforated horizontal well, which early in 2013 successfully produced heavy oil at a rate of 350 BBLs (55.6 m3) of oil per day (Fairbanks Daily News-miner, January 16, 2013; http://www.newsminer.com). The other is a test of the CHOPS (cold heavy oil production with sand) recovery process (Young et al. 2010) with re- sults not yet announced. UtahÕs bitumen and heavy oil deposits are found throughout the eastern half of the state (Schamel 2009, 2013a, b). In northeast Utah, the largest accumulations are located along the southern margin of the Uinta Basin underlying vast portions of the gently north-dipping East and West Tavaputs Plateaus. This highland surface above the Book and Roan Cliffs on either side of the Green River (Desolation) Canyon is supported by sandstone and limestones of the Green River Formation (Lower Eocene). Here the resource-in-place is at least 10 billion BBLs (1.6 billion m3), nearly all of it res- ervoired in fluvial-deltaic sandstone bodies within the lower member of the Green River Formation. On the northern margin of the Uinta Basin, heavy oil occurs in a variety of Mesozoic and Tertiary reservoirs on the hanging wall of the Uinta Basin Boundary Fault. The proven resource is less than 2.0 billion BBLs (0.32 billion m3), but the potential for additional undiscovered heavy oil and bitumen is great. In both areas, the source of the heavy oil is organic-rich lacustrine calcareous mudstone in thePDF Image | Unconventional Energy Resources
