Description: Geological analysis and statistical assessment of Triassic gas resources in the plains portion of the Western Canada sedimentary basin suggest that 51% of the total gas resource remains to be discovered. Of the undiscovered Triassic gas potential, 89% is considered to be present in mature established plays. As many as 154 pools with a volume greater than 280 million cubic meters and 11 pools greater than 2,800 million cubic meters remain to be discovered. Eleven percent of the estimated expected volume occurs in conceptual and immature plays. Of this amount, the 2 immature plays combine to yield over 80% of the expected volume, with the remainder expected in conceptual plays. The results of a recently completed study - Geological Survey of Canada Bulletin 483 - of conventional gas resources contained in Triassic strata of the plains portion of the Western Canada basin are summarized. The study area is largely confined to the Peace River arch/embayment - where much of the Triassic succession occurs in the subsurface.
