USGS assesses East Coast Mesozoic basins

摘要

Five basins on the US East Coast contain an estimated mean undiscovered natural gas resource of nearly 3.9 tcf and a mean undiscovered natural gas liquids resource of 135 million bbl in continuous accumulations, the US Geological Survey said in a recent assessment. USGS assessed five Mesozoic rift basins: the Deep River, Taylorsville, South Newark, Dan River-Danville, and Richmond basins.
