Alaska North Slope 4D Multiclient Petroleum Systems Model & Exploration Risk Assessment Study
The Alaska North Slope (ANS) 4D Project comprises a 4 D Petroleum Systems modeling and exploration risk assessment study in one of the oldest remaining frontiers of the North American circum-arctic - the Alaska North Slope.
The parties to the ANS 4D Project are the USGS Energy Group within the Earth Surface Processes Team and IES Integrated Exploration Systems, which provides PetroMod's advanced software technology and services for exploration risk and resource assessments.
Distribution of accumulations and hydrocarbon flow paths in the greater Prudhoe Bay area, North Slope of Alaska. Shown are the Shublik source rock (purple) and older strata, partly eroded by the LCU. Younger strata is invisible to allow a view "into" the model. Alaska coastline and Prudhoe Bay State 1 well are given for orientation. The orange arrow (bottom left) points North.
This project constitutes the first major 4D petroleum systems modeling effort for the region (outside of proprietary industry studies maintained by individual oil companies), and is based on a unique, newly developed regional scale geological model.
The new Alaska North Slope 4D Study Phase 2 is now commercially available to all interested parties!
