| Summary: | Relevance. The study of isotopic composition of water and dissolved substances makes it possible to determine not only their genesis, but also the fractionation processes occurring in the “water–rock–gas–organic matter” system over time, i. e. as different stages of the evolution of water composition pass through. Interest in the groundwater of the Arctic regions of Western Siberia is additionally associated with the widespread occurrence of oil deposits at the depths of formation waters and the possible influence of cryogenic metamorphization processes on composition of near-surface waters. Aim. To study and compare the isotopic composition of oxygen, hydrogen and carbon in natural waters of the Yamalo-Nenets autonomous region to identify conditional isotopic markers, as well as to be able to trace the evolution of the isotopic composition of waters along a vertical section in the area of the Taz oil and gas condensate field. Objects. Surface (river, soil and lake), underground waters of the active water exchange zone of the Yamalo-Nenets autonomous region and formation waters of oil and gas deposits of the Taz field. Methods. The study of the isotopic composition of oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon of water-dissolved carbon dioxide was carried out in the Research Equipment Sharing Center at the Institute of Geology and Mineralogy SB RAS using Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer FinniganTM MAT 253 equipped with H/Device and GasBench II for sample preparation. Results and conclusions. The paper introduces the data on isotopic composition of O, H and C for natural waters of the Yamalo-Nenets autonomous region. The authors have determined the characteristic trends in changes in the isotopic composition of water and dissolved carbon dioxide for various water bodies. Surface and underground waters with active water exchange in terms of isotopic composition (δD and δ18О) are infiltration. As water moves down the section, with an increase in the time of interaction of the “water–rock” system and increase in temperatures, the ... |
