    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract The Black Sea remains one of the largest underexplored rift basins in the world. Future success is dependent on a better understanding of a number of geological uncertainties. These include reservoir and source rock presence and quality, and the timing of migration of hydrocarbons relative to trap formation. An appreciation of the geological history of the Black Sea basins and the surrounding orogens is therefore key. The timing of basin formation, uplift of the margins, and of facies distribution remain issues for robust debate. This Special Publication presents the results of 15 studies that relate to the tectono-stratigraphy and petroleum geology of the Black Sea. The methodologies of these studies encompass crustal structure, geodynamic evolution, stratigraphy and its regional correlation, petroleum systems, source to sink, hydrocarbon habitat and play concepts, and reviews of past exploration. They provide insight into the many ongoing controversies concerning Black Sea regional geology and provide a better understanding of the geological risks that must be considered for future hydrocarbon exploration.

    Description: During the Mesozoic and Cenozoic Eras, regional tectonic processes, eustatic variations and the volume and distribution of non-carbonate sediment controlled the progressive expansion and rapid reduction of the accommodation space available for the deposition of carbonate sequences, in the area that is now the Mediterranean and Middle East. We present a simplified super-regional tectonostratigraphic history of this area from earliest Triassic time to the present day, to demonstrate the influence of these large-scale processes on the evolution of major Tethyan Mesozoic and Cenozoic carbonate sequences. The time period is divided into 11 tectonostratigraphic phases (TSP) two of which (1 and 11) are incomplete. Each TSP commenced with major changes in basin architecture in response to regional tectonic processes. Subsequent pulses of transgression and regression generated sequence stratigraphic hierarchies. These stratigraphic hierarchies reflect the interaction between regional and local tectonics, eustatic variations, carbonate growth processes, climate and non-carbonate sediment supply. A map is presented of a major second-order transgressive sequence (TST) within each TSP to illustrate the maximum extent of marine onlap. These maps also include the main plate configurations; active regional tectonic features and the resultant time averaged carbonate gross depositional systems that developed during the transgression. The sequence of maps illustrate that the volume of available accommodation space during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic Eras reached a maximum during the Late Cretaceous and has been progressively reduced during the Cenozoic Era to the present day minimum.

    Description: This stratigraphic article summarizes a number of observations on the mid-Cretaceous stratigraphy of Arabia made during the 2nd Arabian Plate Geology Workshop held in Abu Dhabi in January 2010. These observations pertain to the lithostratigraphic nomenclature applied on the eastern Arabian Plate and its relationship to mid-Cretaceous (Late Aptian–Turonian) depositional systems and sequences recognized plate-wide. It appears that several of the commonly applied lithostratigraphic terms are diachronous as a result of (i) plate-wide migration of carbonate and siliciclastic facies belts; (ii) the occurrence of intra-shelf basins at different times and locations; (iii) differential preservation beneath erosional unconformities; and (iv) simple differences in usage across political boundaries. A plate-wide sequence stratigraphic scheme is thus a powerful tool for regional correlation and mapping, and for reconciling lithostratigraphic differences.The studied interval can be subdivided into two primary sedimentary systems that differ in lithology, depositional geometries and dominant faunal assemblages. First, latest Aptian- and Albian-aged systems, which are characterized by volumetrically significant Arabian Shield-derived siliciclastics (both sandstones and claystones) that alternate with carbonate beds. The carbonate beds thicken up-section and have generally very low-angle, muddy ramp depositional geometries. Organic-rich basinal facies are found only in the Kazhdumi Basin in SW Iran at this time. The faunal composition of the carbonates is dominated by benthic foraminifera (notably orbitolinids). Within this succession three third-order depositional sequences are distinguished (MFS K90, K100 and K110). Secondly, Cenomanian–early Turonian-aged sedimentary systems are characterized by a marked reduction in siliciclastic influx, the development of carbonate platform to intra-shelf basin topography and deposition of basinal source rocks. Rudists are the dominant component of grainy, high-energy platform margin/barrier facies, and are also present in the platform top sediments. Within this succession three Cenomanian sequences can be correlated clearly at the scale of the plate (MFS K120, K130 and K140), whereas the number of sequences in the Turonian interval is less well known owing to significant local erosion and/or non-deposition during a period of tectonic instability.Applying this robust sequence stratigraphic framework in combination with a synthesis of biostratigraphic age calibration demonstrates the diachronous character of the Mauddud, Safaniya, Ahmadi and Mishrif formations and equivalents from the southern to the northern part of the Arabian Plate.

    Description: The exploration for petroleum in the Black Sea is still in its infancy. Notwithstanding the technical challenges in drilling in its deep-water regions, several geological risks require better understanding. These challenges include reservoir presence and quality (partly related to sediment provenance), and the timing and migration of hydrocarbons from source rocks relative to trap formation. In turn, these risks can only be better understood by an appreciation of the geological history of the Black Sea basins and the surrounding orogens. This history is not without ongoing controversy. The timing of basin formation, uplift of the margins and facies distribution remain issues for robust debate. This Special Publication presents the results of 15 studies that relate to the tectonostratigraphy and petroleum geology of the Black Sea. The methodologies of these studies encompass crustal structure, geodynamic evolution, stratigraphy and its regional correlation, petroleum systems, source to sink, hydrocarbon habitat and play concepts, and reviews of past exploration. They provide insight into the many ongoing controversies regarding the geological history of the Black Sea region and provide a better understanding of the geological risks that must be considered for future hydrocarbon exploration. The Black Sea remains one of the largest underexplored rift basins in the world. Although significant biogenic gas discoveries have been made within the last decade, thermogenic petroleum systems must be proven through the systematic exploration of a wide variety of play concepts.

    Description: Deepwater hydrocarbon exploration drilling only began in the Black Sea less than 20 years ago, primarily because of the economical/technological challenges associated with mobilizing suitable rigs through the Bosporus. However, to date (end 2017), c. 20 deepwater wells have now been drilled, targeting a large variety of plays in this underexplored basin. The deepwater wells drilled to date are categorized by their main play objectives, within either the sag/post-rift or syn-rift basin fill of the Black Sea. The sag/post-rift play types have proven to be more successful, finding either biogenic gas in Miocene to Pliocene reservoirs associated with the Paleo-Danube and Paleo-Dnieper/Dniester or oil in Oligocene deepwater siliciclastic systems. Syn-rift or early post-rift plays, in contrast, assumed mostly shallow water carbonate reservoir targets. Only one well targeted pre-rift stratigraphy. Most of the exploration failures to date are directly related to the lack of reservoir at the targeted stratigraphic levels. However, the recent discoveries have underlined the presence of at least two active and effective petroleum systems that cover large parts of the deepwater Black Sea Basin.

    Description: 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.
