About hydrocarbon potential of the north-western part of the Carpathian foredeep basin

Abstract

In the article it is constructed schemes of the effective thickness of Oligocene sediments distribution within the first and second structures stages northwestern Inner zone of the Carpathian basin. The character of reservoir rocks distribution is studied; the main patterns of their spatial distribution are clarified. It is highlighted 5 new oil gas perspective objects; the spatial position of geochemical confirmed the presence of anomalies. The amount of total prospective resources in allocated objects at depths of 2 to 5 km is 3.1 million tons of oil.
