Abstract

The article shows the main spatio-temporal regularities of the development of the processes of generation, migration and accumulation of hydrocarbon fluids in the eastern part of the Scythian plate. The authors studied the features of the generationaccumulation hydrocarbon systems of the northern platform side - the Karpinsko-Mangyshlak and East Ciscaucasian oil and gas regions based on the application of technologies of basin analysis and modeling of hydrocarbon systems. The research results indicate that the following hydrocarbon systems are distinguished in the sedimentary cover of the eastern part of the Scythian plate: Jurassic, Cretaceous, Paleocene-Eocene, and Oligocene-Miocene systems. Based on the results of the studies and modeling, the main directions of further prospecting and exploration work in the eastern part of the Scythian plate were determined. The study area was differentiated by the nature of the predicted oil and gas content, the age of the promising complexes and the confinement to tectonic structures and zones. Keywords: generation; migration; accumulation; hydrocarbons; Scythian plate; hydrocarbon systems; basin analysis; modeling; source rocks.
