West Siberian Basin

==> picture [92 x 27] intentionally omitted <==

  • The West Siberian Basin is the largest oil and gas producing region in Russia, both in the geographical area it covers and the recoverable oil and gas that it contains.

  • The oil resources in the West Siberian basin are extremely large in absolute terms. The US Geological Survey estimates volumes of discovered hydrocarbons in the basin are 144 billion barrels of oil and more that 1,300 trillion cubic feet of gas.

  • Estimated ultimate recovery is almost 232 billion barrels of oil. Approximately 70% of the oil produced in Russian comes from the West Siberian Basin, further and better identified in Diagram 5(“West Siberian Oil Basin”, http://petroneft.com/operations/west-siberian-oil-basin , 2 August 2012).
