New In-Depth Report on the Petroleum Geology of the
TARIM BASIN
INTRODUCTION:
March 1, 1993, China National Oil & Gas Exploration
and Development Corporation announced availability of five bid blocks
covering 72,730 square kilometers in the southeast part of the Tarim
Basin of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China.
This is the first in an expected multiple-round offering
as part of China's efforts to keep energy supply in step with its
rapid economic growth. This little explored and remote region of
China is vast in areal extent and in hydrocarbon potential.
PURPOSE OF THE REPORT:
The Petroleum Resource Potential of the Tarim Basin
is an excellent tool to assist exploration managers and their staff
to quickly understand this complex basin. This report as a "first
step" will help bidders to prioritize current and future data
package offerings, thus optimizing time and budgets. Oil companies
new to China will benefit from the thorough geological treatment
and will be able to decide whether to enter this vast, but remote
exploration area.
THIS REPORT WILL INCLUDE:
A current, in-depth review of the petroleum geology of the Tarim
Basin with emphasis on the current five-block offering.
Regional Geological Synopsis - Geological History - Stratigraphy
- Structural Style - Petroleum Geology - Example of Seismic Data
- Source Rocks & Maturation - Assessment of Resource Potential
Numerous Figures & Illustrations
Full-Size Maps
Detailed Compilation & Synopsis of al' Available Data
Numerous Tables
Extensive Bibliography
GENERAL SUMMARY:
The available data have been reviewed and compiled
and a synopsis of the geologic history, stratigraphy, structure,
petroleum geology, and source-rock maturation history for the basin
is presented. The discussion is supported with numerous structure
sections, stratigraphic columns, and example geophysical sections.
In addition, a composite map plate is presented showing location
of wells, structural elements, fields, and hydrocarbon maturation
zones. In addition, a listing of fields is provided together with
cumulative production statistics and reservoir details (depth, lithology,
age, and API gravity of hydrocarbons produced).
Price: One copy, The Petroleum Resource Potential of the
Tarim Basin $2,500 US
