35 Summary Approximately billion BO have been generated in Ordovician shale units and already produced in Paleozoic reservoirs in Appalachian basin (Trenton, Black River, Knox, etc.) (Ryder, 1998). Based on TOC and drock keval ldata tied dinto facies and regional stratigraphy, exploration potential exists in Utica, Point Pleasant, and Logana black shale facies. Regional time lines and facies relationships are poorly understood in the Middle Ord. shales. Logana represents a good, correlatable, regional time line and may represent a flood surface. High TOC and interbedded brittle carbonates in Point Pleasant that enhance fracture potential make this an attractive target.
36 Further Work Needed Additional full-diameter cores, especially in eastern OH Additional TOC and Rock Eval Analyses Biostrat. and isotope work (C13, SR86/87 etc.) Develop Sequence Strat. Model Update and refine cross sections and mapping from previous studies Petrophysical and Mineralogic studies to assist in refining stratigraphy and determining best completion practices
