  Oseberg Formation
  
  Name

  Named after the Oseberg Field in Norwegian blocks 30/6 and 30/9. Oseberg is the name of a Viking ship, discovered in a large burial mound at the Oseberg farm near Tønsberg in Vestfold county, Norway.

  Well type section

  Norwegian well 30/6-7 from 2739 m to 2786 m, coord N 60°38 '39.49", E 02°45' 21.74".

  Well reference section

  None at present.

  Thickness

  47 m in the type well.

  Lithology

  The name Oseberg Formation should be used for the relatively homogeneous, predominantly coarse-grained sandstone unit, 20-60 m thick, that is well documented from the base of the Brent Group in the Oseberg Field and neighbouring fields. The sandstone unit now defined as the Oseberg Formation has long been considered anomalous in the sense that it does not fit well into the “normal” Brent Group succession as is seen, for example, in well 34/10-8 . The basal unit`s (now Oseberg Formation) anomalous coarseness an homogeneity, its common, sharply defined base and “blocky” log pattern, and the indications of a Late Toarcian/Aalenian age for its lowermost parts in some wells have always been awkward aspects of Brent Group lithostratigraphy where the sand unit was interpreted as Etive Formation or as a combined Rannoch / Etive Formation.
  The Oseberg Formation has a typical “blocky” log motif (gamma-ray and neutron/density logs), reflecting the homogeneous nature of the sand units compared to the underlying and intercalating mudstones. Occasional upwards-coarsening motifs occur in structurally high locations.
  Five types of lithofacies sequences are identified within the formation:

  • bioturbated, micaceous mudstones and siltstones containing wave-generated ripple lamination,
  • bioturbated, flat-lying to low-angle inclined (or undulating), medium- to coarse-grained sandstones, with little internal lamination,
  • inclined sets (10-30o, unidirectional dips), of medium- to coarse-grained sandstones with common “floating” granules and small pebbles, rare bioturbation,
  • units of coarse to very coarse and pebbly sandstone, with internal erosion surfaces and a diffuse flat or irregular lamination
  • massive or low-angle laminated, well-sorted sandstones, occasionally interbedded with poorly sorted sandstones or bioturbated, micaceous mudstones

  Boundaries

  The base of the formation is defined by the first appearance of sandstones or siltstones/mudstones above the shales of the Dunlin Group . The log response is characterised by lower gamma-ray readings when entering the overlying Oseberg Formation. The formation`s top, easily recognised throughout the region, is defined by the aprupt vertical change from the formation`s massive or wispy laminated sandstones to the micaceous mudstones and well-laminated sandstones of the Rannoch Formation and is characterized by higher radioactivity.

  Distribution

  The formation has been clearly recognized in the Oseberg Field area (main reservoir unit) and can also be recognised in the neighbouring fields to the north-east ( Veslefrikk ) and east ( Brage , Troll ).

  Age

  Late Toarcian – Early Bajocian.

  Depositional environment

  The lower part of the formation was deposited in a shallow marine environment, and gravitational processes are suggested. For the upper part of the Oseberg Formation sheetflooding and/or shallow-braided streams in an alluvial environment are suggested. The uppermost part of the formation is interpreted as a wave-reworked “transgressive” sand unit deposited during a relative rise of sea level. The sandstones form a number of fan-shaped sand-bodies that originated from the eastern highlands.
