    • The effects of uplift and erosion on the petroleum systems in the southwestern Barents Sea: Insights from seismic data and 2D petroleum systems modelling 

      Ktenas, Dimitrios; Nielsen, Jesper Kresten; Henriksen, Erik; Meisingset, Ivar; Schenk, Oliver (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-05)
      In the past three decades, the hydrocarbon prospectivity has been enigmatic in the southwestern Barents Sea as gas discoveries have dominated over oil. However, more recent discoveries indicate oil potential, especially in the Polheim Platform and Hoop Complex areas. Cenozoic uplift and erosion episodes are critical because they control the duration and depth of maximum burial of source rocks and ...

    • Estimation of net apparent erosion in the SW Barents Sea by applying velocity inversion analysis 

      Ktenas, Dimitrios; Meisingset, Ivar; Henriksen, Erik; Nielsen, Jesper Kresten (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The SW Barents Sea was subjected to significant uplift and erosion during the Cenozoic, processes that are believed to have had a significant impact on hydrocarbon maturation and migration in the area. The current study uses compaction of shale- and sand-dominated layers to make a map of net apparent erosion throughout the SW Barents Sea. The map shows regional trends consistent with deep-seated ...

    • Finnmark Platform Composite Tectono-Sedimentary Element, Barents Sea 

      Henriksen, Erik; Ktenas, Dimitrios; Nielsen, Jesper Kresten (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-16)
      The Finnmark Platform Composite Tectono-Sedimentary Element (CTSE), located in the southern Barents Sea, is a northward-dipping monoclinal structural unit. It covers most of the southern Norwegian Barents Sea where it borders the Norwegian mainland. Except for the different age of basement, the CTSE extends eastwards into the Kola Monocline on the Russian part of the Barents Sea. <p> <p>The general ...

    • Hammerfest Basin Composite Tectono-Sedimentary Element 

      Henriksen, Erik; Kvamme, L.; Rydningen, Tom Arne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-21)
      The Hammerfest Basin is an E -W trending graben located between the Loppa High and the Finnmark Platform in the southern part of the Norwegian Barents Sea. Mainly siliciclastic strata of Carboniferous to Cenozoic age cover the Caledonian basement and have a total estimated thickness of 5-8 km. The basin evolved through several tectonic phases: the Carboniferous rifting, Late Jurassic rifting, the ...

    • Introduction to the volume, and definition and use of the term ‘tectono-sedimentary element’ 

      Drachev, Sergey; Brekke, Harald; Henriksen, Erik; Moore, Thomas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-20)
      The present volume is rooted in a map of sedimentary successions of the Arctic Region by Grantz et al. (2011), and contains a brief, but comprehensive compilation of geological and geophysical data characterizing all significant sedimentary successions in the Arctic, which cover 57% of the polar area north of 64°N. Two main goals have been designated: (i) to provide, based on the present-day ...

    • Quantification of the magnitude of net erosion in the southwest Barents Sea using sonic velocities and compaction trends in shales and sandstones 

      Ktenas, Dimitrios; Henriksen, Erik; Meisingset, Ivar; Nielsen, Jesper Kresten; Andreassen, Karin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-09-19)
      During specific intervals within Mesozoic and Cenozoic times, several areas of the southwestern Barents Sea were subjected to uplift and erosion. Areas with missing shallow stratigraphic interval sections and major erosion can be seen at several places along interpreted regional profiles in the southwestern Barents Sea. A new Normal Compaction Trend (NCT) for two selected shale– and ...
