  • Description

    Klappmyss Formation

    Name
    The formation's name is derived from the seal species Cystophora cristata. The formation corresponds to T1-2 and the lower parts of T1-3 (Andenes and lower Gimsøy formations) of earlier informal terminology.
    Well type section
    Well 7120/12-2 (Norsk Hydro), coordinates 71°7'30.03"N, 20°48'19.00"E, from 3552 m to 3095 m (Fig 4.42) .
    Well reference section
    Well 7120/9-2 (Norsk Hydro), coordinates 71°29'40.81"N, 20°42'05.38"E, from 4806 to 4245 m (Fig 4.43)
    Thickness
    457 m in the type well and 561 m in the reference well.
    Lithology
    Medium to dark grey shales pass upwards into interbedded shales, siltstones and sandstones in the type well. The reference well shows a similar trend, but with more shale throughout.
    Basal Stratotype
    The base is defined by clear log breaks, with increasing gamma ray, interval transit time and neutron porosity readings. This represents an important sequence boundary throughout the area, reflecting an early Smithian transgressive pulse.
    Lateral extent and variation
    The formation thickens and fines northwards from the southern margins of the Hammerfest Basin.
    Age
    Palynofloras suggest a Smithian to Spathian age.
    Depositional environment
    Marginal to open marine environments are indicated, with renewed northwards coastal progradation following the early Smithian transgression.
    Correlation
    The unit is equivalent to the Tvillingodden Formation of western Spitsbergen.
