...P. H. Carter Abstract A new geologic evaluation of Swan Lake field led to the discovery of 24 new reservoirs. The field originally was found in March 1950; initial development drilling ended in 1957. Sun Oil Co. took over operations in 1970. A new lower Frio structural interpretation indicated...

...A. J. Jenik; J. F. Lerbekmo ABSTRACT The petrography, paleontology, and geometry of the Swan Hills Member (limestone reef) of the Late Devonian Beaverhill Lake Formation in the Goose River field, Alberta, were studied in 11 wells. The Swan Hills Member is divisible into a lower Dark Brown submember...

...Colin W. Stearn Abstract Stromatoporoids in great abundance occur in the reefal Swan Hills member of the Beaverhill Lake Formation beneath the plains of N.-central Alberta. The stromatoporoids from cores of wells in the Swan Hills, Deer Mountain, and Kaybob fields were studied. The stromatoporoid...

...George Fong ABSTRACT Early in 1957, several widely separated oil and gas discoveries were made in the Beaverhill Lake formation in the Swan Hills area of west-central Alberta. Production in this formation comes from the Swan Hills member, a southwest-dipping sequence of clastic organic limestones...

Swan Lake II section showing the numerous white tephra beds intercalated with black bituminous shale of the Kanguk Formation. The thick tephra bed beside the person is the 60 cm thick UT937–UT938. The exposure is 17 m above the Sachs River and is the same locality as that recorded by Miall (1979, Station 74-MLA-28). There are more than 43 conspicuous tephra beds exposed at this site.

Stratigraphic section of tephra beds in the Kanguk Formation at Swan Lake I section. The broken lines indicate a discontinuous tephra bed. The lowermost tephra bed (UT912) is 50 cm thick. A few thin and discontinuous tephra beds occur in the uppermost part of the Kanguk Formation at this site, but these were not sampled because of alteration to bentonite.

Digital-elevation model showing flood scours restricted to the Swan Lake bedrock ridge and areas farther north. We argue that this ENE-striking ridge was the sill for the 4775 ft (1455 m) shoreline after the Bonneville flood and the scours resulted from fluvial erosion during the Bonneville flood. The long, narrow Swan Lake scour and discharge channel carried water north from the upper Provo shoreline (Gilbert, 1890). Numbers denote locations of successive sills, outlets, and drainage divides: (1) Bonneville highstand and outlet at Zenda, Idaho; (2) the sill and outlet for the higher ∼4775 ft (1455 m) Provo shoreline, plausibly anywhere along the Swan Lake scour and discharge channel, but most likely near Swan Lake; (3) Clifton sill and outlet for the lower ∼4745 ft (1446 m) Provo shoreline; and (4) current drainage divide at Red Rock Pass. Colors are keyed to lake levels, except in Marsh Valley. Created with GeomapApp. See Figure 1 for location.

Geologic section of water wells within the Swan Lake scour and discharge channel midway between Red Rock Pass and Swan Lake. The minimum floor of the infilled channel is 4680 ft (1427 m) or deeper based on correlation of gravel between the wells. Notice the ∼100 ft (30 m) of horizontal gravel fill deposited within a channel that was eroded into tilted Salt Lake Formation. This low altitude of the base of the original scour channel, well below both Provo shorelines, demonstrates that the Provo threshold was farther south. See Figure 5 for location of section. V.E.—vertical exaggeration; N.D.—no data. The name of the well driller is below each well.
