Abstract
Summary
Interpretation of 2D seismic data for Mid-Caspian region allowed to reveal seven 3rd order cycles of sediment deposits within the Lower Cretaceous 2nd order supercycle. Documented cycles show clinoform way of filling the Cretaceous basin. We developed depositional model for these clinoforms, which included paleo geomorphology, lithofacies, sediment source and transport direction analysis. Such detailed sequence study allowed to outline areas with non-anticlinal traps perspective for oil-gas searching.
