SOCAR with Sonoco / Philips intends to explore the Mesozoic strata in the
northern part of Azerbaijan. The first vice-president of SOCAR
Khoshbakht Yusifzade said the problem with Mesozoic layers is that they
are difficult to detect because of their different depths, reports
Turan.
"In some places it is 30 thousand meters, in some 3 or 5 thousand
meters, and some are just on the surface. We started the exploration
of these layers, but we had no money to continue. If foreigners want
to take it, we do not mind, but we require a plan of action ", he
said.
Yusifzade also noted that the exploration will include a 3D seismic survey.
