The deposit, as a whole, is economically significant as it contains greater than 100 billion barrels of heavy oil in place. A detailed facies study focused on the Bluesky Formation and Ostracode Zone as exploitable bitumen reserves at Peace River are contained predominantly within these units. The interpreted depositional framework shows a transgressive evolution from a brackish bay system (Ostracode Zone) into a marginal marine, wave-dominated estuarine complex (Bluesky Formation). Estuarine facies models have evolved significantly over the past decade, proving to be helpful in identifying numerous ancient deposits. The Bluesky Formation in the Peace River area, and modern and Pleistocene deposits from Willapa Bay, Washington were compared in order to demonstrate similarities common amongst various estuarine deposits.
