Petroleum exploration potential of the Mid-Norway Continental Margin
Abstract The deepwater basins in the Mid-Norway Continental Margin of North Atlantic continental shelf is one of the hot spots of global petroleum exploration in deepwater area,and its exploration potential is very large. On the basis of synthesizing regional geologic information and the earlier res...
