South America Province Boundaries, 1999 (prv6ag)

Description

South America is part of Region 6 (Central and South
America) for the World Energy Assessment. South America
was divided into 107 geologic provinces as background for
prioritization and assessment of undiscovered oil and gas
resources. The boundaries of geologic provinces are
required for the assessment as oil
and gas. Data must be allocated to a geographic entity so
that decisions can be made as to which provinces are
priority for the assessment. Many sources of geologic
information were used to define the province boundaries in
South America, and several versions of the map were
reviewed. Of the 107 geologic provinces defined in South
America, about 40 have had some oil and gas production
to date.
