The paper reveals the distinctive features of the change in the composition of natural bitumen - asphaltite from from the sandstones of the Permian sediments of the Spiridonovsky field in the territory of Tatarstan, in model experiments at a temperature of 250 °C, characteristic for steam-thermal impact on the formation, and the pressure in the system of not more than 2 MPa. The choice of low pressure is due to the fact that bituminous rocks in the Permian sediments occur at relatively shallow depths in the near-s...

The Volga-Ural oil and gas province is one of the oldest oil-producing regions in Russia. The central position in its borders is occupied by Tatarstan, in the territory of which is explored the largest oil deposits of the region. Oil deposits belong to the Devonian sediments, and in a lesser degree to the Carboniferous and Permian deposits. Despite the high degree of research of the region, the origin of oil deposits still one of the most controversial issues. Most researchers consider that the source of oil is th...

In connection with finding - out of a question about probable feeding of deposits by hydrocarbons, acting from the basement, the results of integrated geologicalgeochemical research of the dynamics of variation of chemical and geochemical parameters of oils and bitumen from the rocks of sedimentary cover and basement in the zones of probable inflow of hydrocarbons at the central areas of the Romashkino oil field are presented in this work. Also the results of researches on comparative studying of changes in organi...

Carbonaceous material (CM) from Outer Carpathians hydrothermal veins was investigated by Raman spectroscopy in order to reveal thermal conditions of its alteration. The studied CM as being found in association with ?marmarosh diamonds? confirms that the crystallization environment of this mysterious quartz variety is connected with thermally-influenced organic matter. Obtained temperatures in the range of 159 to 205°C are indicative for low to medium hydrothermal conditions. Presented temperatures stay in quite co...
