In order to improve the efficiency of exploration drilling at various greenfield license areas owned by Rosneft Oil Company, Tyumen Petroleum Scientific Center LLC has been actively developing and implementing various innovative technologies in recent years that allow increasing the probability of discovering new hydrocarbon deposits. One of such approaches is the use of different methods based on the principles of fractality of geological objects. The article presents the results of using the fractal analysis method to solve one of the applied problems of oil and gas geology, namely, the correction of the boundaries of facies zones on facies maps, which are the basis for constructing risk maps for the "reservoir". It is shown that the boundaries of the facies zones on facies maps, built mainly on seismic data and a limited amount of materials from exploration drilling, have a large variability. The found statistical relationship between the distribution of the total reservoir thicknesses in different facies zones and the fractal dimension of the traps made it possible to correct facies and risk maps.

ABSTRACT We consider the seismicity of the Erguna region in northeast China (48°–51° N, 117°–123° E) which is poorly studied from seismological point of view as it is characterized by a low level of seismic activity. We calculate focal parameters (focal mechanisms, scalar seismic moments, moment magnitudes, and hypocentral depths) for seven regional earthquakes with Mw 4.2–4.6 that occurred in 2000–2017 using global seismic data of Rayleigh- and Love-wave amplitude spectra and P-wave first-motion polarities recorded at regional stations. It has been shown that the study earthquakes are of small magnitudes (Mw 4.2–4.6), of various hypocentral depths (3–37 km), and are characterized by different kinematics in their sources (normal and thrust faults, strike slips). The different faulting mechanisms could reflect local stress redistribution in small-scale crustal blocks bordered by local short-length nonconnecting faults. The available geophysical and geological data evidence that the observed features of the seismic process in the Erguna region—low-seismic activity and inhomogeneity of the stress-strain field—are likely to be controlled by the structure of the crust and the upper mantle.
