Abstract
Mt. Everette and Southwest Reeding are two small contiguous oil fields situated on the northeastern shelf of the Anadarko Basin in Kingfisher County, central Oklahoma, approximately 28 miles (45 km) northwest of Oklahoma City (Fig. 6-1). In 1965, the Jones and Pellow No. 1 Britton well (Sec. 11, T15N, R6W) discovered hydrocarbons in the Hunton Group at Mt. Everette-Southwest Reeding. Hydrocarbon production from the Hunton in these fields is from skeletal-buildup, oolite-shoal, and sub-unconformity reservoirs. Ultimate recoveries per well from these three Hunton reservoirs are roughly 42,500, 7000, and 7000 barrels of oil, respectively.
