 Kansas Geological Survey Open-file Report 2002-8 |
The St. Louis fields are primarily a structural stratigraphic
trap with a strong correlation to structural anomalies. However,
no consistent relation of ooid grainstone distribution and structural
highs has been observed (Abegg, 1992). The structures have likely
enhanced the porosity and permeability in the reservoir. Structural
deformation in Hugoton study area is post Meramecian. The Pennsylvanian
Morrow has local erosion or none deposition over structural highs.
The Mississippian strata have been truncated on the structures
and eroded prior to Pennsylvanian sediment onlap and in some regions
a karst plain developed.
