Overview of the Greater Green River Formation Oil Shale bearing areas, including Uinta, Piceance and Green River Basins.

Oil Shale

Click on the 'select area' to draw a polygon on the map and we'll provide an estimate of the amount of barrels of in-place oil from oil shale in the area (based on published data).

Notice Areas drawn on map will be restricted to a minimum area of one acre to match the cell size, or resolution, of the underlying data.

Notice Because of the necessary change in projection of the ESRI GRIDs contained in DDS-69-Y, the numbers calculated here will vary slightly (less than 1.3%) from the published resource numbers.
