Back to Former Soviet Union Index
Fact Boxes about the basins

This map, at 1:7,500,000 scale, is intended to provide a ready reference to first- and second-order geologic features of the productive and prospective basins of the former Soviet Union. Compiled by Dr. Robert P. Koehler from diverse published sources (English and Russian), the map shows several hundred specific features. The map measures 46 x 28 inches, and is completely indexed in a separate 24-page booklet. The index includes cross-references to alternative names. In addition, 36 “Fact Boxes” around the margins give basic information about each basin, including number of fields, production statistics, and regionally important geologic plays in each basin.

Examples of features shown are Kananak Anticline and Mezhov Arch (West Siberia), Tsubuk-Promyslov Arch and Shukat Uplift (North Caspian), and East Unguz Uplift and Bakhardok Slope (Amu Dar’ya).

For new purchasers, the map is included as part of our complete package of former Soviet Union products. It is also available separately, in either black-and-white paper copy or reproducible form.
