Description:
Abstract:
The Total Petroleum System is used in the National Assessment Project and incorporates the Assessment Unit, which is the fundamental geologic unit used for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources.  The Total Petroleum System is shown here as a geographic boundary defined and mapped by the geologist responsible for the province and incorporates not only the set of known or postulated oil and (or) gas accumulations, but also the geologic interpretation of the essential elements and processes within the petroleum system that relate to source, generation, migration, accumulation, and trapping of the discovered and undiscovered petroleum resource(s). 
Purpose:
The purpose of this map is to define and illustrate the geographic limit and geologic boundaries of the Total Petroleum System as required for the USGS National Assessment of Oil and Gas Project. The boundaries define the combined limits of the petroleum system elements -- source rock, reservoir rock, seal rock, and trap--which are described and defined in the text portions of this publication.

Data_Quality_Information:
Logical_Consistency_Report:
The Total Petroleum System was defined on the basis of mapping the surface and subsurface geology of the source rock(s) from the literature and well data files, and by burial and thermal history modeling the source-rock stratigraphic intervals.  The province geologist was required to defend the geologic boundaries and geologic history of each Total Petroleum System in a formal petroleum system review meeting.
Completeness_Report:
The Total Petroleum System was mapped from published literature, interpretations of in-house geophysical well logs, thermal- and burial-history modeling, and on the data contained in the IHS Energy Group, WHCS data base for wells (1999 update), and the Nehring Significant Oil and Gas Field File (1999 update).
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The Total Petroleum System boundary represents the gross boundary of the combined geologic elements that comprise the Total Petroleum System.  The Total Petroleum System boundary was mapped on a 1:2,000,000-scale hard copy base map by the province geologist and the boundary line digitally transferred using Arcedit.   The Total Petroleum System boundary lines are not intended for use at a scale greater than 1:2,000,000.
Lineage:
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The province geologist mapped the Total Petroleum System boundary on a hard copy base map at 1:2,000,000 provided by the project after plotting all available geologic and geophysical well data and information on the hard copy base map. Similarly, data contained in the IHS Energy Group, WHCS data base for wells (1999 update), and the Nehring Significant Oil and Gas Field File (1999 update) were plotted on the base map for reference.  Following review, the Total Petroleum System boundary was digitally transferred from the hard copy base map using Arcedit.
Process_Date:Unknown
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The coverage was projected to Lambert Conformal Conic, the Appalachian Basin was selected and placed into this unique coverage.  The data were then projected to Geographic, NAD 83, for consistency with data in other provinces.
