    Аннотация This paper comprehensively analyzes the geochemical, mineralogical and petrographical properties combined with bulk kinetics modeling of the Domanik organic-rich carbonate from various depth intervals in Kuzminovsky oilfield (well № 26 R), Volga-Ural Basin, Russia. The results show that, the Domanik carbonate-rich samples are characterized by high content of the total organic matter (TOC) up to 13.31 wt %, and contain mainly Type II kerogen with a slight II/III kerogen type, reaching very good to excellent oil generation potential. Moreover, the studied samples contain hydrogen-rich kerogen, which expected to generate paraffin, naphthene and aromatic (P–N-A) oil with low wax content as demonstrated by the Py-GC Pyrolysis combined with the abundance of fluorescent alginite, amorphous organic matter, and bituminite as established from investigations via microscope. The maturity indicators demonstrated that, most of the examined Domanik carbonate-rich samples, with a burial depth between 1726.5 m and 1784.9 m, have generally reached low thermal maturity stages; thus, defining an immature to moderate-mature of oil generation window. The results of the kinetic models suggested that, Domanik carbonate-rich rocks with vitrinite reflectance (VRo) values in the range of 0.60–0.71%, have reached relatively low kerogen transformation ratio in the range of 10–20%, indicating low probability oil generation. These finding are confirmed by the presence of low oil saturation index of less than 100 mg HC/g rock (19.64–69.97). In addition, the results of thin section, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) showed that the studied samples are characterized by low porosity (up to 3.29%) with a wide pores size range, including interparticle, cavities, cracks and organic matter pores. The development of these pore types and their quality in the studied samples is mainly controlled by high mineralogical brittleness (i.e., carbonate and quartz) together with the high organic matter inputs. Therefore, according to the obtained results, characteristics and observations, the Domanik Formation has a high potential for commercial oil production, which typically requires hydraulic fracturing followed by an in-situ retort, mainly by thermal methods such as steam injection and in situ combustion process.
