Tarim oil fields
The Tarim oil fields (Chinese: 塔里木油田) are those oil fields that are found in the Tarim Basin or the Taklamakan Desert in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in China. The development of these oil fields was begun in the 1980s, and, with the completion of the transportation infrastructure, such as Tarim Desert Highway, their total oil output reached 5.000 million tons in 2002[1], and was the sixth largest oil field of China at that time.
