dc.description.abstract | Nigeria is endowed with significant oil sand and heavy oil reserves. These reserves are found within the Cretaceous Afowo Formation in the Eastern Dahomey Basin. The petroleum systems and quality of these reserves are poorly understood. Harnessing these resources necessitate comprehensive deposit evaluation and characterization. | en_US |
