Abstract

Sedimentological analysis of sediments of the Rotliegendes in the area of natural gas deposit Paproć - Cicha Góra is presented. Research was based on boreholes cores, borehole geophysics, seismics and laboratory analyses from borehole documentation. Maps were prepared and tectonics analyzed basing on computer modelling (SURFER 4.15). Preliminary conclusions on connection of hydrocarbons agglomerations with respective facies and sedimentary environments are drawn. Results can be applied 10 further optimizing of gas searching in this area.
