Gas-Geochemical Parameters of Bottom Sediments in the Northern Part of the East Siberian Sea and Podvodnikov Basin of the Arctic Ocean

New data on the gas and chemical composition of bottom sediments of the marginal-shelf part of the East Siberian Sea, continental slope, and Podvodnikov Basin of the Arctic Ocean are presented. The genetic parameters of seven groups of epigenetic hydrocarbon gases are determined. The distribution areas of the potential oil–gas, gas–oil, and oil deposits have been revealed. Three groups of chemical elements have been specified in bottom sediments. Their maximum concentrations are related to particular geostructures of the area studied.
