Summary

[edit]
Description

EIA uses well data to construct maps showing the formation extent and structure of the productive and prospectively productive regions of the Marcellus. Structure and thickness maps are key elements in resource estimation and in defining the areas where hydrocarbon extraction is economical. Maps showing the top and bottom of the formation as 3-D surfaces can be used for a rough estimation of subsurface volumes, as well as detection of regional structural and tectonic features such as major faults, folds, and thrusts. <a href="http://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.cfm?id=20612" rel="nofollow">www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.cfm?id=20612</a>
