Black Sea Region

The Black Sea is one of the few remaining frontier basins spanning both Eastern Europe and southwest Asia. It shares many similarities with the hydrocarbon-rich South Caspian Basin; both basins contain petroleum systems sourced primarily from the Maykop Formation. Reservoir presence and quality are the main exploration risks.
