This report estimates the geopressured - geothermal energy contained in pore waters of sedimentary rocks to a depth of 22,500 ft in the northern Gulf of Mexico basin, both onshore and offshore. The total thermal energy in waters of both sandstone and shale is estimated to be 107,000 x 10(18) J, of wich 11,000 x 10(18) J is in sandstone and thus represents the amount from which initial production will be drawn...
