Based on a 1984 conference, this volume is a compilation of 31 of the papers presented at that conference. These articles address the challenging questions of where the world's explorationists must search for petroleum. Potential and prospective areas discussed include: Antarctica, Circum-Arctic, Alaska, Arctic basins of Canada, Eastern Canada, Amazon, Gulf of Mexico, U.S. Atlantic margin, Arabia, Mozambique, Ghana, Australia, northwestern China, Philippine Islands, west Siberia, Mediterranean, Sicily, North Sea, Norway, Greenland sea, and the Barents sea.
