==Summary==
As often happens in oil-field studies, this one did not yield a unique solution. This analysis is not sufficiently precise to answer the question of a capillary vs. hydrodynamic seal, but it does show the probability that more thorough quantitative work of the type illustrated would be definitive. Particularly helpful would be detailed analysis of r<sub>10</sub> or r<sub>35</sub> values of the updip Midale Vuggy beds.

Therefore, any estimate of oil or gas column heights should be tested against all other information available. Column height and the [[buoyancy pressure]] it generates should make sense in context with shows of oil or gas, water saturations, trap closure, and pressure data.
