Chinese geologists have discovered huge oil reserves in the remote
prefecture of Aksu in Xinjiang province. The size of France, they
will solve the country's energy problems and provide relief well
into the next century. The Tarim Basin, of which Aksu province
forms an important section, is situated at the edge of the
Taklimakan Desert in Northwest China. It is being described as the
future North Sea of Central Asia. At 560,000 square kilometres,
the Tarim Basin contains one of the few huge oil reserves yet to
be exploited.
