• In the Russian part of the Barents and Kara Seas, sedimentary basins of different ages are singled out. All of these basins have different hydrocarbon systems. The new seismic data show possible prospects and add significantly to the investigation of the hydrocarbon potential of the sedimentary basins of the Barents and Kara Seas. The Akademik Lazarev was used to acquire 2D seismic data in the Barents and Kara Seas. In 2012, Petroleum Geo-Services (PGS), together with scientific consortium Geology without Limits, launched a long-term international scientific survey of the Barents and Kara Seas. The scope of work included increasing knowledge of the regional geology, tying the sedimentary basins, exploring interesting geological structures, and identifying potential well locations in the Barents and Kara Seas area.
