Abstract
Prentice field is a narrow stratigraphic trap of Permian age, formed by an updip porosity pinch out at a paleo shelf edge on the Northwest shelf of the Midland Basin, North Texas, U.S.A.. The reservoir section consists predominately of dolomitized mudstones, packstones and grainstones with abundant anhydrite, and a few intercalations of dolomite cemented silt store beds (< 5%). The facies grade from inter tidal to subtidal environments with high frequency fluctuations.
