The Influence of Fold and Fracture Development on Reservoir Behavior of the Lisburne Group of Northern Alaska
The Carboniferous Lisburne Group is a major carbonate reservoir unit in northern Alaska. The lisburne is detachment folded where it is exposed throughout the northeastern Brooks Range, but is relatively underformed in areas of current production in the subsurface of the North Slope. The objectives o...
