Abstract:
-
This coverage includes arcs and regions that describe U.S. Geological Survey
delineated Total Petroleum Systems of the World. Each petroleum system
is defined as a mappable entity encompassing genetically related petroleum
that occurs in seeps, shows and accumulations (discovered or undiscovered)
that have been generated by a pod, or by closely related pods, of mature
source rock, together with the essental mappable geologic elements (source,
reservoir, seal and overburden rocks) that control fundamental processes
of generation, migration, entrapment and preservation of petroleum. Total
petroleum systems are described by U.S. Geological Survey scientists on
the basis of exploration and production histories, and extensive literature
searches. Total petroleum systems are identified with a numeric code derived
from the numeric code of the World Geologic Provinces as defined by the
U.S. Geological Survey World Energy Project. Most total petroleum systems
are contained within a single geologic province, but there are numerous
cases where systems span more than one province. Summary results are presented
as attributes of this coverage.
-
Purpose:
-
This coverage is intended to delineate the Total Petroleum Systems used
in the preparation of World Petroleum Assessment 2000 and to present summary
assessment results.
-
Supplemental_Information:
-
For data management purposes the world is divided into eight energy regions
corresponding approximately to the economic regions of the world as defined
by the U.S. Department of State. Except in the case of the United States,
most region and province boundaries are not controlled by the presence
of political or administrative boundaries. Geologic province boundaries
are determined by World Energy Project Regional Coordinators and others
on the basis of natural geologic entities and may include a dominant geologic
structural element or a number of continuous elements. Provinces are divided
into Total Petroleum Systems defined by the presence of source rocks, migration
paths, traps and seals. Total petroleum systems are numbered from the geologic
province that they are most closely associated with and they inherit the
first digit reference to the energy region. Because many total petroleum
systems overlap with one another, this coverage has Arc/Info region topology.
Each total petroleum system constitutes a region.
