The lithological–geochemical characteristics for the Permian oil-and-gas bearing complex of the Lena-Anabar trough (based on the example of Ust’-Olenekskaya well no. 2370)

Abstract

Lithofacies of different geneses are identified in a section of Permian deposits based on the study of the core material; the best reservoirs in the Permian complex of the Lena-Anabar trough are related to the sand bodies of the delta system. The Permian oil-source strata, where organic matter was accumulated under marine conditions, are recognized, the initial characteristics of organic matter are estimated, and the initial high oil-generation potential is substantiated. The results of the lithological–geochemical studies of the samples from one of the northernmost wells in the Laptev Sea coast have been published for the first time.
