The record of Syria’s energy reopening.

Sourced. Licensed. Stated precision. Nothing invented.

Enquiries Methodology

Energy infrastructure records referencing Syria, as published by Global Energy Monitor. 83 point records at 40 distinct published coordinates, and 13 pipeline routes, drawn over Syria's administrative outline from OCHA. 21 locations are published as exact and 19 as approximate. Neighbouring countries are drawn as one unlabelled landmass with no internal borders. The settlement layer draws all 8,007 OCHA populated places; brightness accumulates where settlements are dense and encodes nothing else. Web Mercator, 100 km scale true at 35°N. No satellite measurement is shown; none has been acquired.

Legend
  • Filled — the source publishes this location as exact.
  • Hollow — the source records the location accuracy as approximate. No radius is published, so none is drawn.
  • Circle — an oil or gas field.
  • Square — a generating plant.
  • Line — a published pipeline route.
  • Dimmed — no record at this location is published as operating.
  • Faint points — the 8,007 OCHA populated places; brightness accumulates where settlements are dense and encodes nothing else.

Coverage note

One record, as held

Read straight from the evidence this page is built from. Open a field for its provenance.

Nameal-Omar Oil Field (Syria)

The publisher’s own unit name, printed as published. The extraction tracker publishes no Arabic name for any Syrian field.

Statusoperating

The publisher’s status field, printed as the publisher writes it — never normalised into our own vocabulary.

Location accuracypublished: exact · held: site_approx

The publisher states this location’s accuracy as exact; the platform’s gazetteer holds the same point as site-approximate, because a field is an area and one published point cannot be exact for it. Both values are shown, and the disagreement is stated rather than resolved. The map draws the publisher’s stated accuracy, and the legend says so.

Coordinate35.0746°N 40.6014°E

The published coordinate, printed to four decimal places as released. It is the value the map plots.

Publisher’s identifierL100000319614

The publisher’s stable unit identifier. Every value shown here is looked up by it, on every build, so the exhibit cannot drift from the row it claims.
