  "field": "Oil and gas",
  "definition": "An undeveloped area where oil and gas exploration and production have not previously occurred, lacking any existing infrastructure like pipelines, processing facilities, or wells.

This contrasts with a brownfield project, which involves modifying or expanding existing facilities in a previously developed area.",
