Abstract
At the end of April 1983, there were 3,088 active oil and/or gas fields in the state of Oklahoma, as well as 32 officially named abandoned fields, according to the Nomenclature Committee of the Mid-Continent Oil and Gas Association. Oil and/or gas fields are located in 73 of Oklahoma's 77 counties, and represent over 4 million acres (1.5 million ha.) in surface area. The Oklahoma Geological Survey has prepared a new, up-to-date map of all officially named oil and/or gas fields in the state, at a scale of 1:500,000. Each field is outlined, assigned an index number for reference, and designated by color code as either an oil field, gas field, or combination oil and gas field. As an improvement over oil and gas field maps available from commercial sources, the OGS has attempted to define better the geographic boundaries of each field. An alphabetical listing of all fields with their reference numbers and locations is featured on the map, along with a listing of smaller fields that have been combined into Oklahoma's major oil and gas trends. The map is designed for use as a reference by all oil and gas professionals in the state. The OGS oil and gas field map has been prepared in conjunction with the development of a computerized oil and gas field file for Oklahoma. Production of updated versions of the map in future years will be facilitated by digitization of information shown on the present map. End_of_Article - Last_Page 459------------
