Alfred Gray introduced in [8] three curvature identities for the class of almost Hermitian manifolds. Using the warped product construction and the Boothby-Wang fibration we will give an equivalent of these identities for the class of almost contact metric manifolds.

In this paper, we define a new tensor field on a Sasqakian manifold, which is constructed from the conformal curvature tensor field by using the Boothby-Wang's fibration ([3]), and study some properties of this new tensor field. In Section 2, we recall definitions and fundamental properties of Sasakian manifold and .phi.-holomorphic sectional curvature. In Section 3, we define contact conformal curvature tensor field on a Sasakian manifold and prove that it is invariant under D-homothetic deformation due to S. Tanno([13]). In Section 4, we study Sasakian manifolds with vanishing contact conformal curvature tensor field, and the last Section 5 is devoted to studying some properties of fibred Riemannian spaces with Sasakian structure of vanishing contact conformal curvature tensor field.
