The Permian Basin comprises several component basins, including the Midland Basin, which is the largest; Delaware Basin, the second largest; and Marfa Basin, the smallest. The Permian Basin covers more than 86,000 square miles (220,000 km 2), [1] and extends across an area approximately 250 miles (400 km) wide and 300 miles (480 km) long. [2]
Permian Basin is in geology the name of two large intercontinental basins that were formed in the Permian period, neither of which are in Perm Krai: Permian Basin (North America) , a basin in the subsurface of the south of the United States, in west Texas and southeast New Mexico
4) The Permian Basin is an investment bonanza According to a research report from Wood Mackenzie, capital spending in the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays alone could top $22 billion by 2018.
Within the basin the formation consists of a basal phosphorite overlain by a thick sequence of chert and cherty sandstone. To the east in western Wyoming the Phosphoria gradually decreases in thickness and is intertongued with carbonate rocks of the Park City Formation and redbed sandstones of the Chugwater Formation of Permian to Triassic age.

That would bring the Permian Basin to a total of 5.99 million bopd in January 2024, the EIA reported, up from the about 5.98 million bopd reported for December – the most of any other U.S. shale ...
The Southern North Sea basin is the largest gas producing basin in the UK continental shelf, with production coming from the lower Permian sandstones which are sealed by the upper Zechstein salt. [1] The evolution of the North Sea basin occurred through multiple stages throughout the geologic timeline.
The basin underlies northern Poland, northern Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, a significant portion of the North Sea to the east coast of England and up to Scotland. A major natural gas discovery was made in the Rotliegend Formation at Slochteren, Netherlands in 1959. The Rotliegend is the lower portion of the Permian sequence and consists ...
The Cisuralian is the first series/epoch of the Permian.The Cisuralian was preceded by the Pennsylvanian and followed by the Guadalupian.The Cisuralian Epoch is named after the western slopes of the Ural Mountains in Russia and Kazakhstan and dates between 298.9 ± 0.15 – 272.3 ± 0.5 Ma.
