Complex Petroleum Systems of Sea of Azov - Southern Russia

Nowadays majority of successful oil and gas discoveries are a result of the sophisticated studies combined with the most recent exploration techniques applied on variety of depositional complexes. One of the proven methods that largely decrease uncertainties in hydrocarbon exploration is numerical petroleum system modeling. By using different petroleum system modeling tools like 1D, 2D & 3D modeling here we investigate complex petroleum system of the southern Russia (Sea of Azov). The subsequent numerical models highlighted a new hydrocarbon system nested within the poorly explored transitional complex of the Sea of Azov.
