Inset Map showing all faults used to compile the preliminary fault map. 3,418 fault
segments from industry contributions and more than 6,000 fault segments from the
published literature were used. The complicated representation for some major faults
is due to the large number of maps showing the same faults with each map showing a
different location. Additionally, fault intricacy may represent true fault complexity.

Acknowledgements
We would like to acknowledge the Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association for its leadership efforts in making the fault database contributions from industry possible.
In addition, I would like to thank all those who have worked and continue to work on the Oklahoma Fault Database including Stephen Marsh, Stephen Holloway, Dr. Randy
Keller, Russell Standridge, Amberlee Darold, and Jacob Hernandez. This work was partially funded by Research Partnership to Secure Energy for America project number
12122-91.

True fault complexity in some areas may be misrepresented by this effort of producing single fault locations for mapped faults. In areas with complex faults, individual fault
locations are uncertain and may be in error by as much as several kilometers. Some questionable faults and small parallel faults are omitted. Future efforts will document
the choices made in developing a final fault map of Oklahoma.
3,418 fault segments from industry contributions and more than 6,000 fault segments from the published literature were used to make this map. All these fault segments are
shown on Inset Map and give an indication of where faulting is most complex. Future efforts will make more metadata available and will include such information as the
fault slip-sense and dip direction.

Summary
This preliminary fault map is compiled from oil and gas industry data and published literature. Most of the faults from the published literature are documented in the
supplement to this Open-File Report. This map is compiled from the Oklahoma fault database, which continues to be updated as additional fault information is available.
This map is being released in a timely manner and should be considered preliminary. The faults shown here represent one interpretation of all the faults in the Oklahoma
fault database being compiled by the OGS. This preliminary version identifies surface and subsurface faults on one map.
