New geological, geophysical and geochemical data obtained in the course of exploration activity in the licensed blocks of PJSC "Oil Company" LUKOIL "formed the basis for this study of the Miocene hydrocarbon system in the Black Sea northwestern part. The reservoir rocks are associated with submarine cones of removal. The traps are predicted as combined types (including elements of structural, tectonic and lithological factors) or lithological types. The Neogene reservoir rocks are formed by basin floor and slope fans. 3D basin modelling allowed prognosis of hydrocarbon type that was confirmed by exploration wells, drilled at the newly discovered structures.

Keywords: Miocene hydrocarbon system, flyout cone, combined traps, lithological traps, Black Sea northwestern part.
