Abstract
The Kizler North Field is near the western flank of the Forest City Basin in Lyon Co., Kansas, USA and produces oil from the Hunton Formation, Viola Formation and Simpson Group reservoirs. The structure strikes NW through the field that is part of a larger wrench fault system. This modern prospect analysis of the Kizler North Field, aids in understanding the reservoir properties of the Hunton Formation, Viola Formation and Simpson Group rocks, the play mechanism of the field, and provides recommendations for additional drilling locations.
