"The hydrocarbon kitchen" is about to serve up something tasty
Sukhbaatar Block (XVII) covers an area of 23,047 square kilometres of which more than 60% of the surface outcrops are Cretaceous in age and have a high potential for source reservoir rocks.
Ground geophysical programs have identified in the Sukhbaatar Block (XVII) one of the largest sub basins with an area of over 3,500 square kilometres.
450 kilometres of 2D seismic have been acquired with interpretation revealing large structural and stratigraphic traps, this provides evidence that
an active petroleum system within the Toson Tolgoi and Tal Bulag basins has generated and migrated hydrocarbon liquids.
The oil generative sediment at the Sukhbaatar Block is up to 9,600 metres thick, the largest and thickest in Eastern Mongolia.Wolf suggest that the sub basins at Sukhbaatar are a potential main petroleum generation source in the region.
