| | Libya: Petroleum Potential of the Underexplored Basin Centers - A Twenty-First-Century Challenge, Donald, C. Rusk #10025 |
 | | Recoverable reserves in approximately 320 fields in Libya’s Sirt, Ghadamis, Murzuq, and Tripolitania Basins exceed 50 billion barrels of oil and 40 trillion cubic feet of gas. |
 | | Predictably, most of the undiscovered resources will be found in the vast, under-explored deep areas of the producing basins. |
 | | Six areas are exceptional in this regard: the south Ajdabiya trough, the central Maradah graben, and the south Zallah trough–Tumayam trough in the Sirt Basin, and the central Ghadamis Basin, the central Murzuq Basin, and the offshore eastern Tripolitania Basin in the west. |
