Summary
Abstract:
This data set includes arcs, polygons, and polygon labels for geologic
and petroleum provinces interpreted and designated by R.M. Pollastro
based on numerous literature and map resources.
Purpose:
Each region is divided into geologic provinces. The purpose of
this data set is to outline areas with similar geologic,
geographic, structural, and petroleum characteristics. These areas
are utilized as one of the primary required strategic tools in the
USGS World Energy Project for assessing the petroleum potential
of this region.
The oil and gas field centerpoints data set is part of
a proprietary database, and field names or any other data
associated with the field centerpoints cannot be
attributed or displayed. Furthermore, portions of this
database covering coastline and country boundaries contain
