| Summary: | Tertiary sediments of the Eastern Slovakia were deposited in the Eastern-Slovakian Basin, Inner-Carpathian Paleogene Basin and basins of the Outer Western Carpathians represented by Magura and Dukla Units. In the first basin shallow-water conditions prevailed during the deposition and the most common types of perspective hydrocarbon traps are represented by architectural elements of deltaic and shelfal environments. The second and third areas are typical by predominant deep-water sediments forming basic types of the most perspective traps: canyon fills, deep-water distributary channels and lobes comprising basic architectonical elements of turbidite depositional systems. Tapering fan-deltaic fronts on steeply inclined ramps are also valuable from the view point of hydrocarbon prospection. |
