Geological Society Memoir 52 records the extraordinary journey of more than 50 years that has led to the development of some 458 oil and gas fields on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). It contains papers on almost 150 onshore and offshore fields in all of the UK's main petroliferous basins. These papers range from look-backs on some of the first-developed gas fields in the Southern North Sea, to papers on fields that have only just been brought into production or may still remain undeveloped, and includes two candidate CO2 sequestration projects.These papers are intended to provide a consistent summary of the exploration, appraisal, development and production history of each field, leading to the current subsurface understanding which is described in greater detail. As such, the Memoir will be an enduring reference source for those exploring for, developing, producing hydrocarbons and sequestering CO2 on the UKCS in the coming decades. It encapsulates the petroleum industry's deep subsurface knowledge accrued over more than 50 years of exploration and production.

The United Kingdom Oil and Gas Fields has been produced to commemorate the first 25 years of hydrocarbon exploration and production in the United Kingdom North Sea. The result of this exploration has produced many benefits for the UK, its government and industry but above all for geologists and geophysicists, Articles on the 64 oil and gas fields discovered on the United Kingdom Continental Shelf are given in a standardized layout to provide easy to use databook for the petroleum geologist and geophysicist. The producing oil and gas fields have been arranged into:the Viking Graben, the Central Graben and Moray Firth, the Southern Gas Basin and Morecambe Basin. Also included are two introductory articles, the first sets the fields in a historical perspect!ve and the second places them in a stratigraphic framework.

AbstractThis volume was conceived when one of us (JG) returned to the UK in mid-1996. Having not worked the UK offshore since the late 1980s it was clear that there had been many changes, not least in the number of fields on production. During that first year back in the UK, JG's copy of Abbots (1991) UK Oil and Gas Fields, 25 Years Commemorative Volume became exceedingly well used. A casual comment to Wendy Cawthorne of the Geological Society library to this effect solicited the response that JG was not alone in finding Abbots (1991) useful. Memoir 14 was the Geological Society's 'best seller'. However, although Abbots (1991) continues to sell well, it was by 1996 out of date insofar as it contains papers describing only about half of the fields then on production.A combination of egotistical zeal, wishing for a bestseller and altruism towards the UK industry led us to make an offer to the Geological Society to revise Memoir 14. The offer was accepted and by April 1998, editors had been appointed and letters of invitation to contribute to the memoir were sent to exploration managers in all the UK operating companies. The responses to those letters were for the most part positive. A request was made to authors for manuscripts to be sent to the editors by June 1999. The first to arrive was six months ahead of schedule (thanks A. Yaliz & N. McKim for their paper on the Douglas Field). However, neither the editors

For the first time there is reconstructed the history of creation of the Memorial Flat of the Doctor of Geological and Mineralogical Sciences, Professor Andrey Yakovlevich Krems, Hero of Socialist Labor, Laureate of two State Prizes of USSR (Ukhta town, Komi Republic). There is presented the characteristic of his private library, which reflected his professional interests and which he collected for several decades. A.Y. Krems developed and implemented mine oil extraction method, discovered several oil and gas fields of global impact and contributed to the industrial development of the European North-East.

The study field is located in the Nizhnevartovsk district of the Khanty-Mansi autonomous region. The deposit is located in the Nizhnevartovsk crest zone. The geological section of this deposit features a thick layer (2740-2870 meters) of Meso-Cenozoic era sedimentary rocks starting from the Jurassic period up to and including the Quaternary period, and rests unconformably on the surface of the deposits of the folded Paleozoic basement. The pay zones of study oil and gas fields features mainly sandstone-siltstone reservoirs. The study formation XX11-2 features interleaved rocks with a high clay content. In the west and south-west of the field, the oil-saturated thicknesses vary on average from 5-10 m, and in the north, the thickness increases to 10-20 m. This field has a long-lasting production history as a result of drilling vertical and horizontal wells but is currently at production decline stage. The existing reservoir pressure support system assumes that the water-cut trend at the wells will increase. In recent years, there has been advanced flooding in some areas, resulting in a drop in oil production, while the reasons for the advanced flooding are not always clear. This is often due to the progressing spontaneous fracturing in the injector wells (Aslanyan, Akimov et al., 2020).

The article discusses the history of the geological study of the Aldan-Maya oil and gas region, during which numerous signs of oil and gas potential were identified. The description of oil and gas bearing complexes of sedimentary strata is given. It is shown that the prospects for the discovery of new oil and gas fields in the Aldan-Maya oil and gas bearing area were assessed quite high.

The Permian succession in the southern Taroom Trough is generally believed to be the source of hydrocarbons in the Roma Shelf oil and gas fields and the Moonie oil field. The succession is characterised by complex relationships between marine and fluvio-deltaic facies which reflect marked differences in the depositional history of the Trough.On the basis of transgressive events, the succession has been subdivided into four sedimentary cycles, the boundaries of which do not always correspond to formation boundaries or seismic horizons. Notably, the top coal in any area forms a prominent seismic reflector, but coals in individual areas can be demonstrated to occur at different stratigraphic positions relative to the major interval of coal development. These higher coals reflect changing depositional settings with time.Palaeogeographic reconstructions demonstrate a complex depositional history of sediment input onto a shallow shelf from differing directions and with different rates of input.
