Description:

Abstract:: This coverage contains points that describe centerpoint locations of and primary commodity produced by oil and gas fields of the Australia and New Zealand area (Australia, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Tonga and Vanuatu; and parts of Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands).
Purpose:: To delineate the centerpoint locations of and primary commodity produced by oil and gas fields in Open File Report 97-470F Maps Showing Geology, Geologic Provinces, and Oil and Gas Fields of the Asia Pacific Region; Plate 3: Australia and New Zealand, which is being compiled as a reference for the U.S. Geological Survey's World Energy Project assessment of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil and gas resources of the world. This coverage is used to produce a map and an Adobe Acrobat Portable Document of the map to be published on CD-ROM. An Arcview shapefile derived from this coverage is used in an Arcview project and an ArcExplorer project.
