Deep-water plays in the western Black Sea: insights into sediment supply within the Maykop depositional system Available to Purchase
Abstract The Oligocene–Early Miocene Maykop depositional system of the Western Black Sea Basin is investigated in terms of sediment supply and provenance. Potential sediment source regions and conduits for sediment supply into the deep-water portion of the basin are evaluated based on the tectonic history and framework of the region, and are supported by observations from published well, reflection seismic and isopach data. The outcrop geology of the present-day land areas adjacent to the basin is used as a guide to the likely provenance and, hence, quality of potential siliciclastic reservoirs. Reservoir presence and reservoir quality are key subsurface risks for exploration in deep-water plays involving Maykop turbidite sandstones and charge from the well-known Maykop organic carbon-rich mudstones that are widespread across the basin. Sediments sourced from the NE Moesian Platform and Dobrogea, channelled into the offshore Black Sea via the Histria Trough, are considered moderate risk in terms of primary reservoir quality, as evidenced by thick packages of fine-grained sediment. In contrast, sediments derived from the southern Strandja Massif fed into the Burgas Basin, and potentially into the deeper-water Turkish Black Sea, are relatively low risk in terms of reservoir quality, given the abundance of acidic intrusions within the massif. Sediment derived from parts of the northern Strandja Massif, especially the volcaniclastics of the Srednogornie region, are likely to have poorer reservoir quality characteristics. Sediments derived from the granitic Bolu Massif within the Pontides might be of good reservoir quality but are likely to be ponded behind the offshore Kozlu Ridge. An important sediment source-to-sink system was derived from the Balkanides and entered the deeper-water western Black Sea via the Kamchia Trough. The present-day Kamchia river is a relatively minor sediment supplier to the Black Sea, but the palaeo-Kamchia river of the Oligocene–Early Miocene would have exploited a much greater drainage area consisting of an axial trunk stream, occupying the newly formed Kamchia Foredeep to the north of the Balkanides, and transverse rivers sourcing sediment from the granitic and gneissic bodies of the Balkan Mountains and from Early Cretaceous and Palaeogene sandstones. These would provide reasonable reservoir quality, and it is estimated from reference source-to-sink relationships that offshore sediment flux via this system was probably at least eight times greater than at present. Known shelf-edge canyons in offshore Bulgaria facilitated this sediment reaching the deep water offshore, where a sedimentary fan with a length in excess of 150 km is likely to have developed. This suggests that the potential is good for encountering good-quality reservoir sands in the Maykop succession deep water of the western Black Sea, and this aspect of regional play risk could be of less concern than was previously considered.

Avalonian and Baltican terranes in the Moesian Platform (southern Europe, Romania, and Bulgaria) in the context of Caledonian terranes along the southwestern margin of the East European craton Available to Purchase
The Moesian Platform is a crustal block within southern Europe, located beyond the southwestern margin of the East European craton. Along this margin lie terranes that were accreted to Baltica as part of Far Eastern Avalonia during Late Ordovician–Early Devonian time and terranes that already formed part of Cambrian Baltica, displaced as proximal terranes together with Far East Avalonian terranes. The tectonic history and crustal affinity of the Moesian Platform, however, remain poorly understood. A review of available tectonostratigraphic, paleontological, and geochronologic data suggests that the Moesian Platform comprises four distinct terranes, two with Baltican and two with Avalonian affinities. A fifth terrane, North Dobrogea, lies between the Moesian Platform and the East European craton and records Variscan (Carboniferous) accretion. This accretionary record leads to the paradox that the youngest accreted crust (North Dobrogea) lies closest to the craton, whereas the earlier accreted crust and crust derived from the craton itself are now located more externally. A review of terranes along the southwestern margin of the East European craton, between the North Sea and the Black Sea, suggests that a dextral strike-slip dominated the southwestern Baltican margin during Late Ordovician–Early Devonian accretion of Far Eastern Avalonia, much as is the case in western North America today. Variscan indentation of the Bohemian Massif led to escape-displacement of some Caledonian terranes, and strike-slip displacement during the Mesozoic opening of Mediterranean-style oceanic basins led to the current juxtaposition of Moesian terranes, inverted with respect to their accretionary history.
