Data Package
-This palynological data package has been produced for the Alaska Geologic Materials
Centre and comprises data for cored Ugnu reservoirs (3079.2'.- 4357.7') in Milne
Point Unit well MPB-02. These data were produced as part of an on going larger scale
internal BP reservoir description project for the Ugnu M wands interval..
A total of 55 core. chips were carefully selected to represent a range of lithologies, but
were biased mainly towards mudstones, siltstones and finer grained sandstones. These.
-core. chips were subjected to palynological. processing techniques by Malcolm Jones
(Palynological Laboratory Services Ltd). Fully quantitative palynological analyses.
were hen undertaken by independent consultant Susan Matthews, using wherever
possible a minimum count of 200 palynomorphs per slide.
Palynomorph abundance, diversity and preservation were moderately good
throughout most of the cored interval and have provided an excellent data set for
subsequent interpretation. The raw quantitative palynological data are displayed in a
StrataBugs distribution chart (accompanying enclosure) and have been. sub-divided
into key palynomorph groups (dinocysts, acritarchs, algae, pollen and spores).
