Lytvyniuk S. Geochemistry of gas inclusions in halite and bitumens in rock salt evaporite formations of oil and gas provinces in Central and Eastern Europe

Object of investigation: evaporite formations of oil and gas provinces in Central and Eastern Europe; objectives of studies: geochemical characteristics of fluid inclusions in halite and bitumens in rock salt; methods of investigation: microscopic study of fluid inclusions, UMCA, mass spectrometry; practical value: geochemical study of fluid inclusions in halite and bitumens in rock salt can be used for detection of hydrocarbon aureoles and prognosis of oil and gas deposits; scientific novelty: shown geochemical characteristics of fluid inclusions in halite and bitumens in rock salt from the sections of evaporite formations placed above the predictable and explored oil and gas deposits, and sections with no underlying hydrocarbon deposits shown genetic informativity of complex geochemical study of fluid inclusions in halite and bitumens in rock salt for detection of hydrocarbon aureoles and prognosis of oil and gas deposits; spheres of using: geology and geochemistry of sedimentary strata.
