Good question. The answer is: no and maybe!

There is no oil or gas production in Somalia. Somalia has no proven reserves.

Underground depostis may exist. For underground deposits to become commercial projects, there must be commitments to spend money from investors. The pull out of Africa Oil in January 2009 does bode well for more exploratory efforts, at least in the short term.

Why are gas deposits found on top of oil deposits?

Gas deposits are often found on top of oil deposits because natural gas is less dense than oil, so it tends to migrate upwards through the rock layers. As oil forms and collects deeper underground, the gas migrates upwards along with it. Over time, the gas tends to accumulate on top of the oil within the rock formations.

How do geologists discover oil and gas deposits?

Geologists use various methods such as seismic surveys, gravity and magnetic surveys, and drilling to discover oil and gas deposits. These techniques help geologists to interpret the subsurface geology and locate potential reservoirs where oil and gas may be trapped. Additionally, advances in technology like 3D seismic imaging have improved the accuracy of identifying and extracting oil and gas deposits.


Is oil found under or above natural gas?

Oil is typically found below natural gas deposits. This is because oil is denser than natural gas and tends to settle at lower depths in the Earth's crust. As a result, oil deposits are often located beneath natural gas reservoirs.
