Summary

This map shows the structural configuration of the top of the Travis Peak or Hosston Formations in feet below sea level. The map was produced by calculating the difference between a datum at the land surface (either the Kelly bushing elevation or the ground surface elevation) and the reported depth of the Travis Peak or Hosston. This resulted in 18,941 wells for which locations were available. After deleting the wells with obvious data problems, a total of 18,933 wells were used for the map. The data are provided as both lines and polygons, and the proprietary wells that penetrate the top of the Travis Peak or Hosston Formations are graphically displayed as quarter-mile cells. The well information was initially retrieved from the IHS [...]

Purpose

The map shows a gradual southerly deepening of the top of the Travis Peak and Hosston; deepest areas being in the East Texas Salt Basin and in southern Mississippi. Major regional features shown by the map are the East Texas Salt Basin, the Sabine uplift that straddles the Texas-Louisiana state line, the Northern Louisiana Salt Basin, the Monroe uplift in northeastern Louisiana, and Jackson dome in Mississippi. Many smaller anticlines and synclines are superimposed on these larger features, some clearly delineated by concentrated patterns of drilling.
