Microbial Carbonate Reservoirs and Analogs from Utah (SS-168) Astronomy Pages: 132 pby Thomas C. Chidsey, Jr., David E. Eby, Michael D. Vanden Berg, and Douglas A. Sprinkel Microbial carbonates are geologically and economically important deposits, acting as hydrocarbon reservoirs in several areas including deepwater offshore Brazil and Angola, South Oman Salt Basin, Caspian Basin of Kazakhstan, and Williston Basin of North America. Utah contains unique analogs of microbial hydrocarbon reservoirs in the modern hypersaline Great Salt
