Abstract:
The wide distribution of sapropelic deposits in the sedimentary cover of the oceans, their Cretaceous age, and their possible oil- and gas-generating characteristics allow us to regard these deposits as a regular global stage in the history of oceanic sedimentation. So, Cretaceous sapropelic deposits are a unique object for study.
Cretaceous sapropelic deposits of DSDP Sites 463, 465, and 466, as well as similar sediments of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, are characterized by enrichment in organic matter, which sometimes reaches 33% (Cape Verde Basin, DSDP Sites 367 and 368).
The objective of this study is the elucidation of genesis, paleogeographic environment of sedimentation, and oil-generating potential of Cretaceous sapropelic deposits at these sites. Attention is given to petrographic composition and distribution of the organic matter.
