Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas in the arctic Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas in the arctic
Among the greatest uncertainties in future energy supply and a subject of considerable environmental concern is the amount of oil and gas yet to be found in the Arctic. By using a probabilistic geology-based methodology, the United States Geological Survey has assessed the area north of the Arctic Circle and concluded that about 30% of the world’s undiscovered gas and 13% of the world’s

Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the West Siberian Basin Province, Russia, 2008 Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the West Siberian Basin Province, Russia, 2008
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recently assessed the undiscovered oil and gas potential of the West Siberian Basin Province in Russia as part of the USGS Circum-Arctic Resource Appraisal program. This province is the largest petroleum basin in the world and has an areal extent of about 2.2 million square kilometers. It is a large rift-sag feature bounded to the west by the Ural fold...

Circum-Arctic resource appraisal: Estimates of undiscovered oil and gas north of the Arctic Circle Circum-Arctic resource appraisal: Estimates of undiscovered oil and gas north of the Arctic Circle
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has completed an assessment of undiscovered conventional oil and gas resources in all areas north of the Arctic Circle. Using a geology-based probabilistic methodology, the USGS estimated the occurrence of undiscovered oil and gas in 33 geologic provinces thought to be prospective for petroleum. The sum of the mean estimates for each province indicates...

Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the Timan-Pechora Basin Province, Russia, 2008 Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the Timan-Pechora Basin Province, Russia, 2008
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recently assessed the undiscovered oil and gas potential of the Timan-Pechora Basin Province in Russia as part of the USGS Circum-Arctic Oil and Gas Resource Appraisal program. Geologically, the Timan-Pechora Basin Province is a triangular-shaped cratonic block bounded by the northeast-southwest trending Ural Mountains and the northwest-southeast...

Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the West Greenland-East Canada Province, 2008 Assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the West Greenland-East Canada Province, 2008
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recently assessed the undiscovered oil and gas potential of the West Greenland-East Canada Province as part of the USGS Circum-Arctic Oil and Gas Resource Appraisal effort. The West Greenland-East Canada Province is essentially the offshore area between west Greenland and east Canada and includes Baffin Bay, Davis Strait, Lancaster Sound, and Nares...
