Abstract
The South Casper Creek field is located on the Casper Arch between the Wind River Basin and the Powder River Basin, approximately 39 km west of Casper, Wyoming, U.S.A. The field was discovered in 1918 when a well was drilled on the anticlinal structure in the Jurassic Sundance Sandstone at a depth of 425m. In 1922, upon deeper drilling, oil was discovered in the deeper Pennsylvanian Tensleep Sandstone at a depth of 750m.
