Big Oil Field Possible Under Yellow Sea

Chinese geologists have for the first time found evidence that the southern part of the Yellow Sea may contain a large quantity of oil and gas.

According to the latest research findings made by the Guangzhou Marine Geologist Investigation Institute, scientists estimated that the oil and gas there will amount to 2 to 2.8 billion tons.

The Yellow Sea is one of China's continental seas. It has a total area of about 400,000 sq km.
