Super basin is a modern term referring to sedimentary basins where the cumulative production and the remaining recoverable resources are higher than 5 billion BOE.<ref name=Fryklundandstark_2020 /> [2] They are characterized by having more than one petroleum system, a solid field infrastructure and abundant data sets for studies. The access to the market is also an essential element in this definition.<ref name=Fryklundandstark_2020 /><ref name=Sternbach_2020>Sternbach, C.A., 2020, Super basin thinking: Methods to explore and revitalize the world’s greatest petroleum basins: AAPG Bulletin, v. 104, p. 2463-2506</ref>
