Eagle Ford Shale: Oil & Gas Resource Surprises Geologists
The Eagle Ford Shale (also known as the Eagle Ford Formation) is a black calcareous shale with a high organic carbon content that underlies much of southeastern Texas. In some parts of the area underlain by the Eagle Ford Shale, heat and pressure have converted organic material within the shale into oil and natural gas.
Eagle Ford Group - Wikipedia
The Eagle Ford Group (also called the Eagle Ford Shale) is a sedimentary rock formation deposited during the Cenomanian and Turonian ages of the Late Cretaceous over much of the modern-day state of Texas. The Eagle Ford is predominantly composed of organic matter -rich fossiliferous marine shales and marls with interbedded thin limestones.
