dc.description.abstractGravity field survey has been carried out in the Omo basin over the detail grid. The grid comprise nine, 48 km long gravity traverses, 4 km apart with gravity stations on a 1 km interval. The gravity data have been collected with the La-coste and Romberg Model G-1105 geodetic gravimeter occupation in conjunction with the post processed Fast static GPS-data acquisition using Trimble 5700. The data were processed, analyzed and presented in contour maps and therefore are interpreted to draw conclusions in terms of basin formation. The result shows a well-defined sedimentary basin bounded by northsouth striking major structures. The Omo basin sedimentary potential has thickness of more than 3 km as deduced from the processed results, besides; its width is about15870.5 m. In addition to its academic importance, the study will have a considerable contribution in exploring the country’s hydrocarbon potential.en_US
