Abstract

A large number of high-quality data obtained during many years of oil and gas exploration on the territory of Vojvodina has enabled the creation of a subsurface model of northern Banat. Special emphasis is placed on the Miocene sediments which are the most important part of sedimentary cover due to its geological and economic potential. The rifting phase varies through time and space across the Serbian part of Pannonian Basin. The Lower Miocene, Badenian and Sarmatian sediments belong to synrift in broader sense, while Pannonian and
Pontian sediments are assigned as postrift sediments. The depositional environment determination of postrift sediments were enabled with use of lithostratigraphy method.
