The paper presents the results of studying rocks of the domanic horizon of the Pervomayskoe oil field represented by core material of the well 467D. In tectonic terms, this well, like the entire Pervomayskoe field, is confined to the axial part of the Kama-Kinel deflection system on the territory of the North-Tatar arch. Administratively, the Pervomayskoe deposit is located on the territories of the Elabuga, Mendeleevsky and Tukaevsky districts of the Republic of Tatarstan. To study the core material presented, different studies were conducted, including a macroscopic description of the core; comparison of the studied rocks with well logging data; optical microscopic analysis; X-ray analysis; determination of reservoir properties of rocks; study of organic matter by the Rock-Eval pyrolysis method. Based on the analysis, it was found that the domanic horizon is composed of rocks containing carbonate and siliceous minerals to varying degrees, occasionally including minor mixtures of other minerals. The section of rocks is characterized by a sharp change in the lithological composition with a thickness of interlayers of several centimeters. According to Rock-Eval data, carbonate-siliceous interlayers have a high content of organic matter. Organic matter in Domanic deposits is characterized as immature and is found in rocks in the form of kerogen.
