First results of stratigraphic drilling in the North-Eastern Laptev Sea
The Stratigraphic Drilling Project of the Russian Arctic Shelf conducted by the PJSC Rosneft is aimed at discover the stratigraphic age and rock composition of sedimentary succession of its subsurface. In 2021, six shallow wells for the first time have been drilled with core sampling in the east of the Laptev Sea. Drilling revealed folded sedimentary succession dated back to the Late Barremian – Early Aptian. The synrift complex overlying unconformably dates to the Paleocene. The upper strata dates from Eocene to Pleistocene and contains significant hiatuses. The data discovered together with the results of seismic interpretation clarified the regional geological model and dated the stages of its tectonic evolution.
