| Resource potential and exploration prospects of cross-border oil and gas basins of southeastern Turkmenistan, southern Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, northern Afghanistan and northeastern Iran | |
| The evaluation of gas and oil resources was carried out. The assessment of exploration prospects of cross-border oil and gas basins of south-eastern Turkmenistan and neighboring regions of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Iran is presented. The oil exploration of the south of Murghab Depression is proposed.
Key words: oil and gas basin, oil and gas resources, field, exploration prospects, south of the Central Asia. |
