Central & Eastern Kazakhstan and other basins of Southeast Central Asia
Blackbourn Geoconsulting's latest study considers the petroleum geology and hydrocarbon resources of the basins of Central and Eastern Kazakhstan, including both known and prospective provinces.
The report, based extensively on material already held in-house, will include numerous illustrations and appropriate extracts from our database of the oil and gas fields of the FSU. The study area includes:
- Afghan-Tajik (South Tajik) Basin
- Alay Depression
- Fergana Basin
- Central Tien Shan group of intermontane basins (Aksay, Atbashin, Naryn, Issyk-kul, East Chu, Talas, Toktogul, Susamyr, Kochkor and Dzhumgol)
- Iiiy group (West Iliy, East Iliy, Kegen-Teke)
- Zaisan Basin
- Alakol Basin
- Prebalkhash Basin (South Balkhash and North Dzhungar)
- Chu-Sarysu Basin
- Syr Dar'ya (East Kyzylkum) Basin
- East Aral Basin
- Turgai Basin
- Teniz Basin
The report will contain descriptions of the geological history and tectonics of the area, basin development, palaeogeography, stratigraphy, known and prospective reservoirs, source rocks and seals, an assessment of the main play fairways, and risked yet-to-find hydrocarbon reserves.
