The Anadarko Basin is a very large Paleozoic rift basin in southwest Kansas, the northern panhandle of Texas, and central and western Oklahoma. This basin was reactivated as a foreland basin during Pennsylvanian-Permian tectonics associated with the Ancestral Rocky Mountains. The Anadarko Basin, as used in this study, includes the Hugoton Embayment (of the Anadarko Basin). It is bordered on the south by the Amarillo-Wichita Uplift, on the east by the Arbuckle Uplift and the Nemaha Uplift, on the northeast by the Central Kansas Uplift, on the northwest by the Las Animas Arch, and on the west by the Cimarron Uplift. The boundary between the Anadarko Basin and the smaller Sedgwick Basin to the northeast is arbitrarily drawn parallel to the structural contours of the Anadarko Basin, cutting off the bulge that is the Sedgwick Basin.
