Abstract
ABSTRACT An extensive province of Upper and Middle Frio production exists along the Gulf Coast of Texas, and in this province the Melbourne sand is one of the prime reservoirs for oil and gas. Melbourne production in Matagorda and Calhoun Counties is trapped primarily in closures against the upthrown side of down-to-the-coast faults. In contrast, anticlinal closures, located on the downthrown side of down-to-the-coast faults form the primary traps through Aransas, San Patricio and Nueces Counties. A case history of the South Copano Bay field illustrates basic exploration techniques that are useful in exploring for buried depositional type structures.
