Regional Middle-Upper Jurassic reservoirs in the Yenisei-Khatanga and eastern parts of the Gydan oil and gas bearing areas within the Siberian sector of Arctic: structural models and conditions of formation
Based on pyrolytic data (3 995 samples from 208 wells) organic matter types of Bazhenov Formation are identified in the central part of Western Siberian basin. Zones of kerogen types I, II, III and mixed I-II and II-III are mapped. Content of sulfur, paraffins, resins and asphaltenes, viscosity, density, temperature and gas content in oils from Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous sediments (3 806 oil pools) are mapped. Oil gradations are identified and distributed. The alternative model of zones of kerogen II and IIS types is presented. The established distributions of organic matter types can be used in basin modeling and in assessment of oil-and-gas bearing prospects.
Abstract
The formation of the deep oil and gas bearing horizons hydrogeological conditions in the Middle Ob region and the West Siberian megabasin as a whole contains many questions and is a subject of discussion. This is due to numerous hydrogeodynamic and hydrogeochemical anomalies that do not have an unambiguous explanation. The hydrogeological conditions feature of the area under consideration is inversion hydrogeochemical zonation in the Lower Cretaceous and Upper Jurassic sediments, as well as the presence of low-mineralized formation waters of hydrocarbonate-sodium composition. The change in the genetic type of waters, the mineralization decrease, the calcium ion content decrease and an increase in the hydrocarbonate ion amount in the Mesozoic hydrogeological basin, is associated with the transformation of mineral and organic matter in sedimentary rocks during their immersion, occurring at the elision stage of the basin development.
