Description
Summary:Area of drilling: Murmanskaya area, southern part of the South Barents Deep, Barents Sea.Reasons for drilling:1. Study of the geological section from the longest drill hole in the South Barents Sea recovered Late Permian, Triassic and Jurassic deposits.2. Obtaining data for stratification of the section and its allocation with reflecting seismic horizons;3. Study of properties, composition and lithologic-facial features of sedimentary rocks.Technical results:The hole has penetrated the section of 4373 m and stopped in the Late Permian deposits. This section is the thickest in the Muramnsk area.Scientific results:1. Comprehensive study of the Late Permian, Mesozoic and Cenozoic deposits from the hole has allowed to reveal lithologic features and to carry out a detailed lithologic and stratigraphic sequence of sedimentary rocks. Permian deposits have been reliably identified on the base of obtained lithologic and paleontologic materials (foraminifera, palynology) from Permian-Triassic to Early Cretaceous ones. ...
