pdf Upper Triassic gas bearing carbonate formation - Western Caucasus
A detailed litho-stratigraphical analysis of carbonate sequences of the Upper Triassic Western Caucasus was performed. The characteristic of sections bored by deep wells in various tectonic zones is given. Their correlation was performed. The boundaries of the carbonate formation distribution are determined. Analysis of the materials of testing operations in wells indicates the possibility of forming independent gas accumulations in this structures. The morphology of reservoirs in low-permeable carbonate will be largely controlled by the development sites of secondary reservoirs connected by zones of recent tectonic fracturing. The zone of possible development of rift structures has been determined.

Keywords: carbonate formation, gas content, morphology gas reservoirs, Upper Triassic, Western Caucasus.
