California Oil & Gas Fields
CD-ROM
Contour Maps, Cross Sections, and Data Sheets
This comprehensive CD-ROM set includes detailed geological and geophysical data essential for understanding the structure and distribution of oil and gas reservoirs across California. The volumes provide precise contour maps that delineate subsurface formations, cross sections that illustrate stratigraphic relationships, and extensive data sheets summarizing key field characteristics.
Volumes Included:
Volume I: Central California, 1998
This volume covers the central region of California, presenting updated maps that reflect changes and discoveries up to 1998. It includes data from major producing fields such as the San Joaquin Basin and surrounding areas, detailing reservoir extents and fluid contacts.
Volume II: Southern, Central Coastal, and Offshore California, 1992
Focusing on southern and central coastal regions, as well as offshore fields, this volume offers critical insights into the geology beneath the Pacific Ocean. It features cross sections that aid in visualizing the complex fold and fault systems influencing hydrocarbon accumulation offshore and onshore along the California coast.
Volume III: Northern California, 1982
This earliest volume documents oil and gas fields in northern California, presenting foundational geological information that underpins later studies. The maps and data sheets include notable fields in the Sacramento Basin and adjacent areas, highlighting early exploration and production data.
Key Features and Benefits:
Comprehensive Geological Mapping: The contour maps accurately represent subsurface formations, aiding in the identification of structural traps and reservoir boundaries critical for exploration and development.
Detailed Stratigraphic Cross Sections: Cross sections display vertical relationships among rock units, facilitating interpretation of depositional environments and tectonic history.
Extensive Data Sheets: Each oil and gas field is accompanied by summary sheets that provide important data such as production statistics, reservoir properties, and well information.
Historical and Updated Data: The inclusion of volumes from different years provides both historical context and modern updates, supporting longitudinal studies of resource development.
Applications and Users:
Researchers: Geologists and Earth scientists utilize these resources for academic research, basin analysis, and resource assessment studies.
Industry Professionals: Petroleum engineers, exploration geologists, and asset managers access this data to optimize field development and evaluate potential drilling targets.
Government and Regulatory Agencies: Regulatory bodies and land management organizations use the information for environmental assessments, policy-making, and resource management planning.
Educational Institutions: Universities and technical schools incorporate these volumes into geology and petroleum engineering curricula to provide students with real-world data and case studies.
Additional Context:
California hosts some of the most diverse and productive oil and gas fields in the United States. The geology of these fields is notably complex, marked by active tectonics, sedimentary basin development, and variable depositional environments ranging from marine to terrestrial settings. By providing a detailed geospatial framework, these CD-ROM volumes offer invaluable insights that contribute to safer, more efficient, and environmentally responsible oil and gas exploration and production.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
