Abstract:
The Upper Permian of central East Greenland contains a relatively thick, widely distributed, oil-prone source rock. It occurs directly adjacent to large, carbonate buildups that constitute the main potential reservoirs. It is immediately overlain by thick, coarse-grained sandstones that are also a potential reservoir. The whole sequence is draped by Upper Permian and Lower Triassic shales that may act as a seal.
This has implications for the Norwegian shelf north of lat. 62°N. There are good reasons to believe that Upper Permian rocks of the same types as in East Greenland exist, deeply buried in this region. The Upper Jurassic shales are immature over large areas of the Norwegian shelf, and the presence of deeper buried Upper Permian source rock thus adds considerably to the petroleum potential of the area.
