Abstract
Summary
A significant part of the resource potential of Russia is located in the offshore part of the Kara Sea basin. We have carried out 3D regional basin modeling to determine the main hydrocarbon localization zones and the amount has not yet explored the resource potential of the Kara Sea basin. We have identified ten source rocks (SR). The quality and type of kerogen of these rocks are characterized by pyrolysis on the actual research. According to the simulation results we have obtained detailed heat model of thermal regime and vitrinite reflectance. Undrilled hydrocarbon accumulations are predicted in the Malyshevskaya and Vymskaya formations on Shchuchinsky, South Yamal and Eastern Novaya Zemlya highs
