A. A. Meyerhoff*

*Meyerhoff and Cox. Inc. Tulsa Oklahoma 74104 USA.

Abstract

During 1976, three separate drill sites were reported from parts of central and southern Tibet, the People's Republic of China. The ages of the formations penetrated are not known, but possible commercial hydrocarbon shows were reported at each of the three drill sites. The shows were in either late Paleozoic or Mesozoic Tethyan facies, north of the Yalu Tsangpo (Brahmaputra) River. Similar Tethyan facies crop out south of the river.
