Abstract The objective of this article is an estimation of the oil and gas potential of the north of the Siberian platform and adjacent shelf. The Siberian platform is characterized by a large concentration of oil and gas resources in the southern and central parts of the platform. The main oil and gas province of the Siberian Platform is the Leno-Tungus oil and gas province. The oil- bearing strata in the Lena-Tungus oil and gas province are confined to the Riphean, Vendian, Lower-Middle Cambrian deposits, in which large oil and gas fields are discovered. In modern contours the Siberian platform in the north and north-west is fringed by the Yenisei-Khatanga regional trough. In the east, the Yenisei-Khatanga regional trough is connected with the Anabar- Lena trough, framing the north-eastern part of the Siberian platform. Analysis of the available geological and geophysical materials shows a fairly high potential of the Anabar-Lena and Yenisei-Khatanga troughs for the discovery of large hydrocarbon fields. The basic understanding of the geologic-tectonic structure and petroleum potential of the northern part of the Siberian Platform and the adjacent shelf of the Arctic zone are currently based on seismic data by the method of the common depth point (CDP), tied to the existing deep search and parametric wells. Representations of the deep structure and oil and gas potential of specific areas, the allocation of targeted promising oil and gas horizons can change dramatically as the depth of seismic acquisition of the method of the common depth point increases and the software for processing and interpreting seismic data is improved. The localized oil and gas resources of the north of the Siberian platform and adjacent shelf are 41017,3, subsequently, 27582,3 - onshore and offshore - 13435 MMT (million tons) of oil equivalent.

The results of the lithological study of the Silurian sediments drilled in by wells within the Ledyansk uplift in the north of the Siberian platform are presented. It is found that in the early Silurian time on the territory under consideration a large organogenic buildup corresponding to typical Silurian reefs of a stable shelf was formed, the formation stage of its framework was confined to Wenlock. In Late Silurian, against the background of regression, the reef formations were overlain by lagoon-sebkha clayey-evaporite deposits. It is shown that the heterogeneity of the section affected the distribution of reservoir properties. The high primary porosity of the reef framework contributed to the processes of dissolution, stylolization, fracturing and formation of a high-capacity reservoir. The combination of various voids led to the development of a complex reservoir. The saline-sulfate rocks of the Upper Silurian – Lower Devonian act as a seal. The question of the prospects for the oil and gas potential of the Silurian reef deposits is of particular relevance in view of the wholesale development of organogenic buildups on the Siberian platform in the Wenlock time.

Oil And Gas Resources

Russia’s oil and gas resources fall within the sphere of interests of Western European and a number of Asian countries, mainly China, for which a stable supply of the economy with hydrocarbon raw materials is the most important factor in the development of the economy. At the same time, the vast majority of resources are located in the North and the Arctic zone of Russia. Under conditions of considerable uncertainty in the energy markets, international cooperation between the countries of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and Russia to regulate the functioning of the industry has deepened. The article shows that in the context of reduced resources, complicating mining conditions, coordination of efforts to conduct joint fundamental research work is necessary. Further successful economic cooperation should be based on the harmonization of the economic interests of all stakeholders.

In-depth additional studies were carried out to assess oil and gas potential of deep-lying Jurassic and pre-Jurassic deposits of the northern territories of Western Siberia. As in previous work, the geological and mathematical program “Vybor” was used. Based on the first constructed series of model maps with probabilistic values of informative geochemical and geological parameters, the most promising both local and regional objects were selected. Increasing complexity of the traps structure with depth was noted. As a rule, from the Cretaceous deposits to the Jurassic and Paleozoic, the type of trap from the predominant anticline (in the Cretaceous) changes to a much more complex combined one, which requires special approaches (and new technologies) to identify and explore such objects. Studies based mainly on seismic data indicate rather high oil and gas content of both the Paleozoic and Triassic deposits, which have a platform occurence and large thicknesses, as well as crystalline basement formations. In this regard, unconventional combined traps of deep-lying deposits of the North of Western Siberia are of significant interest in terms of incremental oil and gas resources and reserves.

Until recently, the North of the Kara Shelf was completely unexplored by seismic methods. Seismic and seismo-acoustic data that have appeared in recent years have made it possible to decipher features of the regional geological structure. This study solves the urgent problem of determining the prospects for the oil and gas potential of the North Kara sedimentary basin. The relevance of the research is associated with determining the prospects of the oil and gas potential of the North Kara sedimentary basin. The aim of the study is to clarify the age of the reflecting horizons using data on the geology of the island, as well as to determine the tectonic position of the sedimentary cover and basement structures in the north of the Kara shelf. The sedimentary cover is divided into three structural levels: Cambrian-Devonian, Middle Carboniferous-Cretaceous, Miocene-Quarter. The Cambrian-Devonian complex fills the deep troughs of the North Kara shelf. The most noticeable discontinuity is the base of Carboniferous-Permian rocks, lying on the eroded surface of folded Silurian-Devonian seismic complexes. The blanket-like plate part of the cover is composed of thin Carbon-Quarter complexes. The authors came to the conclusion that the fold structures of the Taimyr-Severozemelskiy fold belt gradually degenerate towards the Kara sedimentary basin and towards the continental slope of the Eurasian basin of the Arctic Ocean. A chain of narrow uplifts within the seabed relief, which correspond to narrow anticlines is traced to the West of the Severnaya Zemlya islands. Paleozoic rocks have subhorizontal bedding further to the West, within the Kara shelf. Mesozoic folding in the North of the Kara Sea is expressed exclusively in a weak activation of movements along faults. At the neotectonic stage, the shelf near Severnaya Zemlya was raised and the Mesozoic complexes were eroded. The modern seismic activity of the North Zemlya shelf is associated with the ongoing formation of the continental margin.

The goal of the strategy of the Russian Federation in the development of the Far Eastern’s and Arctic seas is an active, qualitatively new industrial, infrastructural and social development of the North and the East. The Arctic shelf of Russia have the main reserve of oil and gas resources, which belongs to the number of unique areas of the world, in terms of hydrocarbon reserves. The objectives of the policy of mining enterprises aimed at increasing the reserves of offshore fields, introducing the latest equipment and technologies in their development, creating an infrastructure that can ensure the smooth and trouble-free operation of mining complexes and the transportation of products. It is necessary to create a digital platform for ensuring safe operation on the shelf, accumulating data from satellite surveys of transport infrastructure facilities, for monitoring the hydrometeorological, ice and navigation conditions in the waters of the Far Eastern Seas and the Northern Sea Route (NSR) for navigation and hydrographic support of ship traffic, as well as icebreaker assistances. The system should support the laying of ship navigation routes of transport vessels and icebreaking fleets, taking into account the navigation and ice conditions in the specified water area, the organization of search and rescue operations, elimination of the consequences of emergency spills, pollution from ships with harmful substances or garbage.
