Raster Dataset Model of Oil Shale Resources in the Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado

Metadata Updated: July 6, 2024

ESRI GRID raster datasets were created to display and quantify oil shale resources for eighteen zones in the Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado as part of a 2010 National Oil Shale Assessment. The oil shale zones in descending order are: Bed 76, Bed 44, A Groove, Mahogany Zone, B Groove, R-6, L-5, R-5, L-4, R-4, L-3, R-3, L-2, R-2, L-1, R-1, L-0, and R-0. Each raster cell represents a one-acre square of the land surface and contains values for either oil yield in barrels per acre, gallons per ton, or isopach thickness, in feet, as defined by the grid name: _b (barrels per acre), _g (gallons per ton), and _i (isopach thickness) where "" can be replaced by the name of the oil shale zone.
