Abstract:
Undiscovered potential in foreign frontiers is believed to be substantial. This potential is located in moderate and harsh physical environments. Very little exploration has been conducted in these basins and the majority are classified as essentially unexplored. These areas are not geologic mysteries and it is highly possible that they can contribute large increments of discovery. The attractive possibilities which exist in these foreign frontiers must not be overlooked, therefore, all must be adequately explored. Major exploration activities should begin in these areas as soon as possible if they are to have any impact on new reserves and production before the end of this century. Governments controlling harsh frontier areas are beginning to recognize the high costs and risks incurred in exploring and operating therein and are beginning to offer greater incentives to those willing to undertake the environmental challenges.
