Wireline geophysical logs from 17 oil and gas exploration wells in the Peel Plateau and Plain region of Yukon Territory were assessed for conventional reservoir petrophysical properties. The assessment was conducted by Petrel Robertson Consulting Limited in 2008 for the Yukon Geological Survey. The aim was to highlight geological formations with potential for hosting economic quantities of conventional hydrocarbons.
Use Cases
- Identify hydrocarbon-bearing formations based on petrophysical property analysis
- Update regional resource assessments for the Mackenzie Corridor based on the reported data
- Support geological mapping for energy and minerals initiatives based on the GEM program context
Strengths
- Assessment covers 17 specific wells, providing a focused dataset
- Data was produced for a government-led resource assessment initiative (GEM)
- Project builds on prior collaborative research from 2005
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
