Japanese: 頸城油・ガス田 - くびきゆガスでん
Kubiki Oil and Gas Field - Kubiki Gas Field
An oil and gas field in the northern part of the Kubiki Plain in western Niigata Prefecture. Discovered by Teikoku Oil in 1954, it produced 58kl of crude oil per day in 1996. The geological structure is a complex of a dome structure stretching from the coast to offshore and another dome structure inland to the south. The oil reservoir is sandstone and tuff in the Teradomari Formation of the Miocene Tertiary Period. The crude oil is trapped in lenticular sandstone on the wings of the dome structure that extends from the coast to offshore, and the natural gas is trapped both at the top of the dome structure and by faults on the wings.
