Abstract
Exploration for oil and natural gas in Hungary began in 1915 when the Eotvos torsion balance was used to measure the earth’s gravitational field. Since that time, as a result of extensive exploration, 17 fields associated with basement highs on the periphery of the Bekes basin have been discovered. In this trend, oil and gas is produced from compaction anticlines associated with basement highs. Weathered and fractured basement rocks and basal sedimentary rocks usually form a common reservoir, which is 38 m thick in the Battonya field, and more than 400 m thick in the Sarkadkeresztur field. Higher in the section, natural gas is produced from lower Pannonian sandstone reservoirs that reach thicknesses of 56 m in the Pusztafoldvar field.
