Cisco Oil Field is an oil field located in Grand County, Utah. The field was discovered in 1924 in the now abandoned town of Cisco, Utah. It is one of the oldest oil fields in the state of Utah.

New production was discovered in the Cisco townsite during 2005 drilling by a Reno, Nevada-based oil company.[1]

The field produces from channel sands in the Mancos, Dakota and Morrison formations. Natural gas is produced from the Mancos and Dakota formations, while the Morrison production is mostly crude oil.
