Abstract

In the Mesozoic section of Western Siberia, the oil and gas reservoirs are confined to terrigenous silt-sand formations. The Upper Jurassic bituminous argillites of the Bazhenovo Suite are an exception, and the only clay-argillite reservoir rocks ever discovered. The thickness of the Bazhenovo argillites is comparatively small, varying from 5-10 to 20-40 meters. From these rocks in many areas light, high-quality oil has been obtained, including commercial quantities with maximum yields of more than 370 m/sup 3//day. (JMT)
