Detailed oil and gas field maps |
| The detailed field maps linked below portray the locations, boundaries, names, and either the barrel-of-oil equivalent (BOE) or the liquid hydrocarbon (crude oil plus lease condensate) or the natural gas reserve size classes of the known oil and gas fields in selected geologically defined areas of the U.S. at year-end 2001. Multiple map sheets were required to adequately portray the fields of some areas. Use this
Index of Detailed Field Maps to identify which of the subsequently listed oil and gas field maps you might be interested in viewing. Pursuant to Section 604 of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, these maps are one product of a joint Department of the Interior, Department of Energy, and Department of Agriculture study of access to oil and gas resources located on Federal onshore lands. The maps conform to that ongoing study's temporal, areal, and technical requirements. Note that most of the maps are large format (60 inches X 36 inches, for example) and are intended for printing on a wide-bed printer. To clearly view them on your monitor you will have to zoom in and then scroll through the map. |

EIA's oil and gas field Boundary Generation Scripts |
| The following Word® (.doc) files provide and describe three script codes conceived, developed, and implemented by EIA to (a) automatically and efficiently generate geologically reasonable oil and gas field boundaries from well data, and then (b) calculate the percentage of Federal land within the each field's boundary. The scripts are coded in Visual Basic® for use in conjunction with ArcGIS® software. |

| Application of the decision procedure specified in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's Guidelines for Providing Appropriate Access to Geospatial Data in Response to Security Concerns to the geospatial data provided via this web page resulted in a finding that safeguarding of these data is unwarranted. |
