North Atlantic Permian–Triassic Syn- and Post-rift Plays - Analogues from East and Northeast Greenland
2018
Summary Good analogues are keys for better understanding petroleum systems in frontier basins and new plays in proven basins. Recent discoveries have proven Permian carbonate plays (e.g. 7120/1–3 and 7220/11-1) in the Norwegian Barents Sea and Triassic siliciclastic plays (e.g. Goliat, Tornerose and Alke Sor) in the North Atlantic. Permian and Triassic plays have been unsuccessfully tested on the Mid-Norwegian continental shelf (M-NCS), but these plays have recently attracted renewed attention. However, the lack of offshore core data from this interval provides a major obstacle in developing valid play models. On the conjugate East and Northeast Greenland margin, excellent outcrops and a large number of shallow fully cored boreholes document the syn- to post-rift Permian–Triassic interval. Data from this interval in East and Northeast Greenland thus provide important constrains on key elements for new play models on the M-NCS. The presentation will provide observations from East and Northeast Greenland that may help to assist the definition of play models for the Permian–Triassic succession in the M-NCS and place them in a tectono-stratigraphic context.
