Abstract
Summary
At a stage of regional geological studies, the key problems to be solved when predicting the hydrocarbon potential of the East Arctic sedimentary basins are to estimate the main parameters of the sedimentary cover, namely to identify major depositional seismic sequences, assess their thickness, reconstruct depositional environments and predict seismic facies. By reconstructing paleodepositional environments in which sedimentary sequences were laid down, we will be able to evaluate the region’s hydrocarbon potential and to define a strategy for planning further geological exploration on the continental shelf.
