Geologic Report Highlights Webb Zapata Oil Prospects
Geologist William C. Berg argues Gulf Coast oil dominance, with Webb and Zapata counties near the center. He cites thick sedimentary sequences from Upper Cretaceous to Quaternary, favorable dip toward the Gulf, and potential pools in Eocene and Upper Cretaceous sands. He notes five to six pools developed, expects deeper sands to yield large production, and emphasizes faulting and anticlines as key traps within a vast 50 by 150 mile prospective area.
