Japanese: アルバータ油・ガス田群 - アルバータゆガスでんぐん(英語表記)Alberta
Alberta Oil and Gas Fields - Alberta Yugasdengun (English spelling)
Alberta, in western Canada, is the country's largest oil and gas producing region. The hydrocarbon deposits in Alberta are broadly divided into two groups. One is distributed in a complex structure along the eastern foot of the Rocky Mountains, and the other is distributed in a loose structure in the interior plains. Many gas fields have been discovered in the foothills, all of which are trapped in fault blocks including thrust faults. Representative gas fields include Turner Valley and Pincher Creek. In the plains, there are Paleozoic reef limestone oil deposits and Mesozoic sandstone gas deposits.

カナダ西部のアルバータ州は,同国最大の産油ガス地帯である。アルバータの炭化水素鉱床は二つのグループに大別される。一つはロッキー山脈の東麓沿いの複雑な構造に分布するもの,もう一つは内部平原の緩い構造に分布するものである。山麓部には多数のガス田が発見されているが,いずれも衝上断層を含む断層ブロックにトラップされている。代表的ガス田としてはターナー・バレー,ピンチャー・クリークなどがある。平原部においては古生代の礁状石灰岩油層と中生代の砂岩ガス層とがある。
