Abstract

The hydrocarbon potential of Permo-Carboniferous strata across the Barents Sea shelf (BSS) remains underexplored. The seismic coverage of the BSS varies, and lack of drilling in many places makes it difficult to assess the potential and efficacy of associated petroleum-system elements. One way to address these issues is by using well-known analogues as geologic references. This study represents the first application of the Appalachian Superbasin as an analogue for better understanding the regional development of Permo-Carboniferous tectonostratigraphy and petroleum systems across the BSS in terms of compressional tectonism.
