Description
Summary:Geographically, Cook Inlet on Alaska’s southern coast is bordered to the northwest by the Alaska-Aleutian Range and Talkeetna Mountains, and the Kenai Peninsula-Kenai Mountains on the southeast (Figure 14). Discovery of the first field was in 1957 at Swanson River, and the subsequent history of petroleum exploration and geology in the area has been discussed by numerous studies (e.g., Magoon and Claypool, 1981; Magoon and Egbert, 1986; Magoon and Kirschner, 1990). Hydrocarbon production is from six oil fields (Trading Bay, McArthur River, Middle Ground, Granite Point, Beaver Creek, Swanson River) and
