Analysis of the burial history chart of the Inigok 1 well ([[:file:petroleum-systems_fig3-15.png|Figure 4]]) and other burial history charts indicates peak petroleum generation (the critical moment) probably occurred in Late Cretaceous time (approximately 75 Ma) in the western North Slope and in early Tertiary time (approximately 50 Ma) in the central and eastern part of the North Slope. Also, note the large increase in the rate of sedimentation during the Early Cretaceous.
