Lombardi reservoir, San Ardo field, California: Sequence stratigraphy in a deltaic environment associated with local tectonism

The Lombardi reservoir at San Ardo oil field in California is extremely sand rich (>90%), and appears to be a relatively simple reservoir several hundred feet thick. The purpose of this study is to characterize stratigraphic complexities in the Lombardi reservoir that may impact later production, and interpret how changes in stratigraphic architecture are tied to local syn-depositional tectonism.

Petroleum Reserves and Resources Forum

As the world heads toward what could be a significant shortfall in energy supply relative to demand, it is more important than ever for our industry to help stakeholders understand the contribution of the hydrocarbon sector in balancing that energy equation. To do that, the industry needs individuals who can find, exploit, and appropriately assess reserves and resources. The AAPG DPA – SPE OGRC Petroleum Reserves and Resources Forum will help decision makers better understand the energy resource picture, and help interpreters and investors make more accurate reserve and resource assessments.
