Arctic petroleum geology

This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the geology and the petroleum potential of the Arctic. Nine papers offer a circum-Arctic perspective on the Phanerozoic tectonic and palaeogeographic evolution, the currently recognised sedimentary basins, the gravity and magnetic fields and, perhaps...
