Ann: Operational Update - Significant Progress on all Fronts-88E.AX, page-124

Never seen this Paul Decker comment before:

Paul Decker, senior geologist in the state Division of Oil and Gas, said the better and potentially productive parts of the known North Slope shales are in the areas south of Prudhoe Bay and Kuparuk fields on state lands, and where Great Bear, 88 Energy and Burgundy Xploration are exploring.

The shale layers thin out to the east, near the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, and to the west, near the National Petroleum Reserve–Alaska, Decker said.

Bear in mind these comments are made in 2010/2011.


This is a guy that has done more study on the North Slope BPSM than any other from presentations Ive viewed. His NS cross sectional studies are impressive tstl.
