Abstract

On the Kara Sea shelf, there are two sedimentary basins separated by the North-Siberian sill. Tectonically the southern part of the Kara Sea covers the South Kara regional depression, which is the northern end of the West Siberian geosyncline. This part of the water area is identified as part of the South Kara oil and gas region, within which the Aptian-Albian-Senomanian sedimentary complex is of greatest interest in terms of gas content, in terms of liquid hydrocarbons - Neocomian and Jurassic deposits. The northern part of the Kara Sea is an independent North Kara province, for the most part of which the prospects of petroleum potential are associated with Paleozoic sedimentary complexes. Oil and gas perspective objects of this basin may be associated with anticlinal, non-structural traps and reef structures.
