1 Seismic-Data Interpretations near the Blan Carbon Sequestration Test Well in Hancock Co., Kentucky KYCCS Western Kentucky Deep Test Review Meeting Friday, October 23, 2009 James A. Drahovzal Consulting Geologist Sponsored by Kentucky Geological Survey
2 KGS #1 Marvin Blan well and seismic data in Hancock Co., Ky Well completed to 8,126 ft (-7491 ft subsea) in Hancock Co. in western Kentucky Seismic-data support One existing line 4 mi. to west of well (A, red line) Four new seismic lines shot for the well (B-E, black lines) Seismic-data gap on B A B C D E
3 Interpretation of Line A Before Well Drilled Predicted stratigraphic tops were approximate Knox predicted to be 4,000 ft thick at well and unfaulted Mt. Simon interpreted at North end of line Based on correlations from Wad Fee well in Louisville and seismic lines in southern Indiana Mt. Simon onlaps and pinches out to the S. Predicted NO or very thin Mt. Simon in the well Recognized three Proterozoic seismic sequences Predicted drilling into Sequence -- siliclastic N Mt. Simon Ss C 4* 5* Modified from Drahovzal, 1997 K n o x B 0 1 Mile S 0.5 s 1.0 s 1.5 s
4 How did we do? New Data: Line B and the Blan Well W E Area near well is unfaulted Knox thickness is 3,617 ft (instead of 4,000 ft); nearer to the 3,580 ft predicted using the new data No Mt. Simon in the well as predicted Basement high in area Eau Claire much thinner than predicted 87 ft (instead of predicted 300 ft) Also due to basement high Seismic miscorrelation Lack of velocity data Well penetrated 300 ft of Precambrian Sequence a siliclastic, as predicted Confirmed 2002 study of Precambrian sequences A 0.5 s 1.0 s 1.5 s 0 1 Mile 4* 5* Knox C Blan well
5 Mount Simon Sandstone on Original Line A Data North 0 Mile 1 OCkn Cms pc Cec Cms pinches out to South 4* Up to 590 ft of Mt. Simon at North end Mt Simon onlaps and pinches out to South 5* From Drahovzal, 2008 OCkn Knox Group; Cec Eau Claire Formation; Cms Mt. Simon Sandstone; pc Precambrian; pc Precambrian Unit ; pc4* Precambrian Unit 4*; pc5* Precambrian Unit 5*
6 Mt. Simon on Line C (New Data) W E A Indian Creek FZ D Only new line that showed the Mt. Simon Mt. Simon terminates at Indian Creek FZ Mt. Simon Ss 0.5 s Note irregular base and truncation of Precambrian surface 0 1 Mile 4* 5* 1.0 s 1.5 s
7 Detail of Seismic Line C W A Indian Creek FZ E Cms K n o x Bright reflector to East could be a thin remnant of Mt. Simon that pinches out to West and East None of the other new lines showed Mt. Simon
8 Mount Simon Sandstone Distribution in Hancock Co., Ky Pinch out on line A Fault Bounded on C along Indian Creek FZ Based on the seismic lines, NO Mt. Simon was predicted in Blan well Nor in Braden well Both of those conclusions born out by results from wells A C Blan well Braden well
9 Mt. Simon Sandstone Distribution in North Kentucky Much less Mt. Simon North of RCG than previously thought Series of 0 basement highs and lows R o u g h C r e e k G r a b e n
10 Interpretation of Line D Paleozoic and unconformity dip south Knox uniform thickness No Mt. Simon 4* dips only gently N and is not folded as in Line A 4* & 5* cut by imbricate thrust faults Faults are Northvergent A vergence not seen previously in western Kentucky Proterozoic N 0.5 s 1.0 s 1.5 s C 5* 4* B 0 1 Mile S
11 Interpretation of Line E Same relationships as in previous line Again, north vergent faults undeformed Faulting related to compressional uplift of Louisville High to the East Compressional uplift ~600 Ma Sequence likely erosional clastic detritus ~590 Ma N 0.5 s 1.0 s 1.5 s C Knox Knight Bros. 4* 5* S
12 Conclusions No major faulting is present near the Blan well The Knox is of nearly uniform in thickness in the vicinity of the well; 3,617 ft thick at the well The Blan well has no Mt. Simon, as predicted; and the Mt. Simon is apparently more restricted North of the RCG in Kentucky than previously thought; local basement highs are present in the area resulting in thin to absent Mt. Simon and thin Eau Claire sections The distributions of Proterozoic sequences defined in 2002 by seismic- data interpretations were confirmed by the Blan well and the new 2-D seismic data The Blan well encountered a red lithic arenite in Sequence, the general lithology predicted from earlier seismic interpretations Sequence is likely clastic detritus derived from erosion of the Louisville Uplift to the East, is likely fluvial, and is about 590 Ma in age The northwest-vergent faulting in Hancock Co., is previously unknown in the area, but is likely related to the 600 Ma compressional uplift of the Louisville structure
