A new area called Hesigewula Sag was found in China for oil and gas exploration. Scientists used advanced techniques to study the rocks and structures in the area. They discovered that Hesigewula Sag has good source rocks with lots of organic material, making it a promising spot for finding oil and gas. The sag is similar to other places that have already yielded oil and gas, suggesting it has great potential for energy resources.
