Petroleum potential in the West Anabar (Siberian Platform)

The article gives a lithological and petrographic description of the Upper Precambrian and Paleozoic oil and gas bearing complexes. Structural-­tectonic and oil-­gas­geological zoning of the West Anabar updated in accordance with the new structural constructions. Naphtides-­show are described and new data on the petrophysical and geochemical characteristics of the promising oil and gas complexes are represented. The assessment of the oil and gas potential of the territory is given with the allocation of local facilities and the assessment of hydrocarbon resources by the volume-­statistical method.
Keywords: Siberian Platform, Lena-­Tunguska petroleum province, Vend, Paleozoic, oil and gas bearing complexes, resources.
