The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has conducted a number of geology-based assessments of undiscovered oil and gas resources in the Uinta-Piceance Basin (USGS Province 5020) of western Colorado and Eastern Utah. Recent assessments include.

                                - 2018 Continuous tight-gas in Mesaverde Group and Wasatch Formation ( Fact Sheet 2019-3027 )
                                - 2016 Unconventional Mancos Shale ( Fact Sheet 2016-3030 )
                                - 2015 Uteland Butte Member of the the Eocene Green River Formation, Uinta Basin ( Fact Sheet 2015-3052 ).
                                - 2003 Assessment of the Uinta-Piceance Province ( DDS 69-B )
                                - 1995 National Oil and Gas Assessment ( DDS 30 )
