Abstract

The Uniontown pool in northern Union County, Kentucky, discovered in September, 1942, produces mainly from the Waltersburg, Tar Springs, and Cypress sandstones of the Chester series, Upper Mississippian system. It produces in a minor way from a sandstone of Pennsylvanian age and from the Palestine and Hardinsburg sandstones and the Menard limestone of the Chester series. The structure consists of an elongate dome, the western side of which is closed against the upthrown side of a normal fault. There are 229 producing wells in the field, which had produced 8,600,000 barrels of oil to October 1, 1947. The producing area covers approximately 2,000 acres.
