Abstract
This article discusses the results of a study of the geologic structure of Mesozoic sediments in the Kazakhstan sector of the Caspian Sea South Mangyshlak sedimentary basin. This paper includes an analysis of existing geological and geophysical data aimed at describing the characteristics of petroleum system elements. The main features of the sedimentation conditions of oil source rocks, reservoirs, and caps have been analyzed. The key hydrocarbon source zones in the territory of the Kazakhstan sector of the Caspian Sea have been determined. The correlation of existing wells to determine regional covers and main trends in reservoir sedimentation has been provided.
