pdf Lithofacial characteristics and organic matter geochemistry of the Devonian-Carboniferous section оf folded and thrust belt area of the Kosyu-Rogov Depression southeastern part (using Levogrubeyu-1 well data as reference source)
The results of study of the Middle-Upper Palaeozoic bioherm-shoal association in the east of the Timan-Pechora petroleum Basin (based on the Levogrubeyu-1 well description) are presented. The core lithological study allows distinguishing the facial analogues with the succession types of the Bolshaya Nadota carbonate association. It is supposed that the bioherm-shoal association demonstrates similar architecture along the all shelf border. Foraminifera and Conodont studies allow as to improve the biostratigraphic subdivision of the succession discovered by the borehole. The geochemical investigations reveal that the Devonian-Carboniferous rocks in the core samples disclose low hydrocarbon generation potential. On the other hand high hydrocarbon potential is supposed for the clayey-carbonate units of Middle-Late Frasnian age. Rock-Eval pyrolysis and the Conodont Alteration Index indicate a high level maturity of organic matter corresponding to the main gas generation zone (Ro > 1.5 %).

Keywords: lithofacial study, organic matter, hydrocarbons, Upper Palaeozoic, Kosyu-Rogov Depression, Timan-Pechora petroleum basin.
