North Sea Basin

The North Sea Basin is a geological area located beneath the North Sea, surrounded by countries like the UK, Norway, Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands. It is significant for its rich natural resources, particularly oil and natural gas, which have been extensively extracted since the late 20th century. The basin also contains important geological features, such as sedimentary rock formations, making it a key region for energy production and research. Additionally, it plays a critical role in marine biodiversity and is an essential area for shipping and fishing activities in Northern Europe.
