Description
Svarte Formation
NameNamed after Halvdan Svarte, King of Ringerike, Norway about A.D. 850.Well type sectionNorwegian well 25/1-1 from 3995 m to 3807 m, coordinates N 59°53'17.40", E 02°04'42.70" (Fig 5.33) . No cores.Well reference sectionsNorwegian well 35/3-2 from 3447 m to 3207 m, coordinates N 61°51'05.98", E 03°46'28.22" (Fig 5.34) . No cores. Norwegian well 24/9-1 from 3992 m to 3804 m, coordinates N 59°16'09.48", E 01°47'31.18" (Fig 5.35) . No cores.ThicknessIn the Viking Graben, the formation is 188 m thick in the type well 25/1-1 , 240 m in well 35/3-2 and 188 m in well 24/9-1 .LithologyThe formation generally consists of mudstones interbedded with limestones. Sandstones occur in the Agat area. The content of limestones relative to mudstones is generally lower in the northern than in the southern part of the Viking Graben. The mudstones are medium to light grey, often calcareous, occasionally micaceous, glauconitic and pyritic. The limestones are mainly white to medium grey, argillaceous or sandy. The sandstones are clear to light grey and often cemented by calcite.Basal stratotypeThe lower boundary shows a general upward decrease in gamma-ray intensity and an increase in velocity from the Cromer Knoll Group into the Svarte Formation (Fig 5.34) . This is due to a higher content of carbonate in the Svarte Formation.Characteristics of the tipper boundaryThe upper boundary is generally easily located, and is characterised by an increase in gamma-ray intensity and a distinct decrease in velocity from the Svarte Formation up into the Blodøks Formation (Fig 5.33) . This is caused by a lower carbonate content in the Blodøks Formation .DistributionThe formation is present in the Viking Graben and north of the Tampen Spur towards the Marulk Basin. It is, however, lacking on structural highs such as the Lomre Terrace (e.g. Norwegian wells 35/8-1 and 35/8-2), (Nybakken and Backstrøm, in press).AgeCenomanian.Depositional environmentOpen marine.RemarksThe Svarte Formation is time-equivalent with the Hidra Formation in the central North Sea and with the informal “formation A” of Deegan & Scull (1977) (Fig 5.6) .Source-
