Summary
The study of discontinuities and unconformity surfaces in the sediment layer of the transition zone of the South Caspian Basin and the Middle Caspian Basin is of great practical importance. As it is known, the main reason for the formation of non-anticlinal type traps in oil and gas basins is unconformity surfaces. In addition, the study of unconformity surfaces is also considered important in terms of restoration of paleogeographical conditions. In addition to the study of unconformity surfaces, the study of discontinuities within the sedimentary layer is also important in solving such issues. The seismostratigraphic analysis method was used in order to study the unconformity surfaces and discontinuities in the research work.
