The main purpose of this dataset is to provide regional-scale guidance as to the Thermal Maturity (Ro) of the target organic-rich member of the West Falls Formation which may be suitable for deep geologic sequestration. This data should not be used as a substitute for detailed site investigations. This project was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy DE-FE0031836. |
