The provided results of crude oil composition study feature the productive deposits of the carbonate and terrigenous Devonian within the territory of the Volgograd Volga Region. This made possible dividing of oils into two main groups. The environment of generation of their oil-source material was reconstructed based on the composition and structure of saturated and aromatic compounds.
