The article is devoted to the elucidation of the nature of the wave field recorded below the supporting-dominant seismic horizon «P» in the Middle Kura depression of Azerbaijan. A brief overview of the work carried out here is given; it is indicated that some geologists and geophysicists of our country, in our opinion, mistakenly assume that the observed wave field below the specified horizon is formed mainly by multiple reflections. Since the introduction of the common depth point method into the practice of seismic exploration, individual areas of the Middle Kura depression in Azerbaijan, including the Yevlakh-Agjabedi trough, have been repeatedly studied with varying degrees of frequency tracking. On the basis of this, a fairly large number of promising structures have been identified and mapped. But the structure of the Mesozoic, in particular the deposits of the Upper Cretaceous, still remains insufficiently studied. The study of the geological structure of the Mesozoic sediments, which are considered promising in terms of oil and gas content, is an urgent geological task; exploration work was carried out in the studied areas of the Middle Kura depression using a complex of geophysical methods at the modern technical and methodological level and new results were obtained. The constructed seismic sections show a dynamically pronounced and well-traceable seismic horizon corresponding to the Mesozoic surface and located deeper than it, relatively weak, short, discontinuous reflective boundaries that characterize the structure within the Mesozoic deposits. The studies carried out on the basis of modeling and velocity analysis made it possible to prove that the wave field in the time interval corresponding to the Mesozoic deposits owes its origin to intermittent single reflections from volcanic-carbonate deposits of the Upper Cretaceous age.

In the established practice of geological exploration for oil and gas conclusions about the facies belonging of the rocks of oil and gas basins and individual exploration areas were made mainly on the basis of the study of core material. Recently for this purpose the results of seismic exploration and well logging have been used. Geophysical methods despite their obvious progress are indirect and intermittent core sampling and incomplete coring make facies analysis difficult. Тhe study of cuttings during the well logging process makes it possible to fill this gap through direct continuous observations along the well section. The use of the whole complex of geophysical methods allows one to mutually compensate for the limitations and disadvantages of each of them and more fully and reliably assess the genetic characteristics and reservoir potential of productive deposits. Sequential accumulation, comparison and analysis of heterogeneous geophysical data make it possible to continuously refine apriori facies models and forecast oil and gas content which ultimately allows to optimize the directions and volumes of drilling.

The paper describes the geological structure and oil and gas content in Nadym depression, which is almost entirely located over the oil-and-gas geological zoning in the oil and gas bearing area Yarudey of Frolovskaya petroleum bearing region. The generalization of the results of drilling, regional seismic exploration, core studies, well logging and well tests lead to identification of potential productive formations in the Jurassic-Cretaceous platform complex and in the Paleozoic basement. Some recommendations for further direction of exploration are proposed.

В данной статье даны особенности геологического строения района газопроявления «Цущар» в Кулинском районе на отложениях среднеюрского возраста, предлагается геолого-структурная схема возможного формирования залежи нефти и газа. Незначительные проявления газоносности, связанные обычно с минеральными источниками и подчиненные мощной толще юрских сланцев, развитых на значительных площадях нагорного Дагестана, начали обращать на себя внимание с 1931 г., в связи с поисками месторождений легких редких газов. Анализы газов показывают повышенное содержание легких редких газов в целом ряде месторождений нагорного Дагестана. Кроме группы месторождений Южного Дагестана известен пока только один выход горючего газа в Центральном Дагестане – Кулинском районе. На него указывает в своем рукописном отчете Дагестанскому Совнархозу геолог Н. М. Леднев. Этот выход подчинен юрским сланцам, связан с нарушениями неотектонического характера, образованными в результате сейсмической активизации региона. Цель исследования. Целью наших исследований является обоснование перспектив газоносности Горного Дагестана. На изучаемой территории отмечается наличие неправильных куполовидных складок с неожиданными направлениями их осей, пересекающими основное направление складчатости, частичными местными уклонениями в залегании пластов. Методы исследования. Основными методами исследования при изучении перспектив газоносности Горного Дагестана являлись геолого-структурный, стратиграфический, морфологический, тектонический и дешифрирование аэрофотоснимков. Результаты исследования. По сравнению с Предгорным Дагестаном и Прикумским районом, Горный Дагестан был подвержен более интенсивным геотектоническим движениям, неоднократно подвергался складчатости, испытал инверсию, со значительно большей амплитудой, что привело к усиленной денудации, развитию трещиноватости и разрывов, метаморфизму пород и органических образований. Все это отрицательно влияло на сохранение нефти и газа. Можно предполагать, что многие залежи, сформировавшиеся при прохождении продуцирующими толщами главной фазы нефтеобразования, были разрушены в периоды активизации тектонической деятельности на рубеже юры и мела, мела и палеогена. В дальнейшем шла генерация, преимущественно, газообразных углеводородов, которые при особенно благоприятных условиях могли сохраниться до настоящего времени. По результатам исследований можно утверждать, что газовое проявление Цущар могло проявиться в 1622, 1652 гг. в результате сильных землетрясений, эпицентр которых располагался в пределахисследуемого района This article describes the features of the geological structure of the Tsushar gas show area in the Kulinsky region on the Middle Jurassic deposits, and proposes a geological-structural diagram of the possible formation of oil and gas deposits. Minor manifestations of gas content, usually associated with mineral springs and subordinate to a thick stratum of Jurassic shales, developed over large areas of highland Dagestan, began to attract attention from 1931, in connection with the search for deposits of light rare gases. Gas analyzes show an increased content of light rare gases in a number of fields in highland Dagestan. In addition to the group of fields in Southern Dagestan, only one outlet of combustible gas in Central Dagestan is known – the Kulinsky region. It is pointed out in his handwritten report to the Dagestan Economic Council by the geologist N. M. Lednev. This outlet is subordinate to the Jurassic shale and is associated with neotectonic disturbances formed as a result of seismic activation of the region. Aim. The purpose of our research is to substantiate the prospects for gas content in Gorny Dagestan. In the study area, there are irregular dome-shaped folds with unexpected directions of their axes crossing the main direction of folding, partial local deviations in bedding. Methods. The main research methods in the study of the prospects for the gas content of Mountainous Dagestan were geological-structural, stratigraphic, morphological, tectonic and additional aerial photographs. Research results. Compared to Piedmont Dagestan and Prikumskiy region, Gorny Dagestan was subject to more intense geotectonic movements, repeatedly underwent folding, experienced inversion, with a much higher amplitude, which led to increased denudation, the development of fracturing and fractures, metamorphism of rocks and organic formations. All of this negatively affected the conservation of oil and gas. It can be assumed that many deposits, formed during the passage of the producing strata of the main phase of oil formation, were destroyed during periods of intensified tectonic activity at the boundary between the Jurassic and Cretaceous, Cretaceous and Paleogene. In the future, there was the generation of mainly gaseous hydrocarbons, which, under especially favorable conditions, could persist to the present day. According to the research results, it can be argued that the gas manifestation of Tsushar could have manifested itself in 1622, 1652. as a result of strong earthquakes, the epicenter, which was located within the study area

Despite the recent increased interest of researchers in the pre-Jurassic deposits of Western Siberia, this complex of rocks still remains relatively unexplored. In this paper, we consider fields that are in close proximity to each other, but have. fundamentally different geological structure and criteria for the oil and gas content of rocks that form the top of the pre-Jurassic complex.

The structure and seismogeological characteristics of the Achimov strata of the Gydan Peninsula are considered. Geological and geophysical criteria for the regional forecast of oil and gas potential, taking into account the clinoform structure of the Berriasian-Lower Aptian deposits, are proposed. Based on the interpretation of drilling data and 2D seismic exploration, predictive maps of the thickness of sand bodies were constructed, depocenters of accumulation of sandy material were mapped. Seismostratigraphic studies, which are based on a comprehensive analysis of the wave pattern of time seismic sections, dynamic and seismic facies analyzes, as well as paleotectonic and paleogeomorphological reconstructions, made it possible to identify the Salmanovskaya and Yuzhno-Gydanskaya oil and gas zones in the Achimov strata of the Gydan Peninsula.

The X oil and gas condensate field is located in Parabel district of Tomsk region; the field is large in terms of recoverable reserves. Oil and gas content is confined to Jurassic sediments of Tyumen suite and Vasyugan suite. The reservoirs of the Vasyugan suite are marine and coastal-marine sediments, characterized by alternating sandstones, mudstones, siltstones, clays and exhibit complex internal aging. The productive deposits of the Tyumen suite are of continental origin and are distinguished by significant lithological variability. One oil deposit (J11 stratum), one gas and oil deposit (J12 stratum) and three gas condensate deposits (J13-4, J3, J4-5 strata) were identified in the productive formations. The article analyzes the features of the geological structure and conditions of sedimentation of productive strata. In terms of its phase state and physicochemical proper-ties, the fluid of the J11 deposit is a "volatile oil", phase state of which is close to the near-critical. Reservoirs of productive formations are of terrigenous type, porous, low-permeability, while the oil productivity of the formations is high due to the ultra-low oil viscosity.

On the Kara Sea shelf, there are two sedimentary basins separated by the North-Siberian sill. Tectonically the southern part of the Kara Sea covers the South Kara regional depression, which is the northern end of the West Siberian geosyncline. This part of the water area is identified as part of the South Kara oil and gas region, within which the Aptian-Albian-Senomanian sedimentary complex is of greatest interest in terms of gas content, in terms of liquid hydrocarbons - Neocomian and Jurassic deposits. The northern part of the Kara Sea is an independent North Kara province, for the most part of which the prospects of petroleum potential are associated with Paleozoic sedimentary complexes. Oil and gas perspective objects of this basin may be associated with anticlinal, non-structural traps and reef structures.

Статья посвящена новым извержениям самых активных грязевых вулканов Шамахи-Гобустанского региона Восточного Азербайджана – Шихзарли и Гушчу, характеризующихся частыми проявлениями. Так, начиная с 1844 г. зарегистрировано 26 извержений грязевого вулкана Шихзарли, одно из которых, наиболее интенсивное произошло в феврале 1902 г. после катастрофического Шамахинского землетрясения. Цель исследования. Рассмотрены геологическая позиция грязевых вулканов, сейсмологические данные, определившие глубину очага и энергию извержения, дан краткий исторический обзор извержений. Методы исследования. Геологическое строение площадей расположения грязевых вулканов изложено на основе новых данных, полученных в последние годы о тектонике грязевулканических районов Азербайджана, в частности Гобустана, с выделением разломных структур и расположенных между ними микроблоков, а также тектонических единиц – аллохтон, паравтохтон и автохтон. В одном их таких микроблоков (Баянатинский) расположен грязевой вулкан Шихзарли, относящийся к паравтохтону. Почти все извержения грязевых вулканов Шихзарли и Гушчу, а также последние их проявления спровоцированы землетрясениями, происшедшими в близкорасположенных к ним районах и отмечены 5–7 сейсмостанциями. Предыдущее извержение грязевого вулкана Гушчу в Шамахинском районе в январе 2020 года явилось следствием подземных толчков в соседнем Исмаиллинском районе. В историческом обзоре рассматриваемых грязевых вулканов отмечены характерные и отличительные особенности их проявлений. Последнее (16-е) извержение грязевого вулкана Гушчу произошло из нового эруптивного центра, на расстоянии 700 м к северу от основного действующего более ста лет кратера вулкана. Результаты работы. Приведены результаты геохимического анализа вулканической брекчии, особенно нефтеносных пород – песчаников и горючих сланцев эоцен-миоценовых отложений для оценки перспектив нефтегазоносности площадей расположения изученных грязевых вулканов. В пределах Баянатинского микроблока нефтегазовые скопления могут быть открыты под грязевулканическим очагом The article is devoted to new eruptions of the most active mud volcanoes Shikhzarli and Gushchu in the Shamakhi-Gobustan region of East Azerbaijan. These volcanoes are characterized by frequent manifestations. Thus, since 1844, 26 eruptions of the Shikhzarli mud volcano have been recorded. The most intense eruption occurred in February 1902 after the catastrophic Shamakhi earthquake. Aim. The geological position of mud volcanoes, seismological data that determined the depth of the source and the energy of the eruption are considered. A brief historical review of the eruptions is given. Methods.The geological structure of the areas where mud volcanoes are located is presented on the basis of new data obtained in recent years on the tectonics of mud volcanic regions of Azerbaijan. In particular for this reason was used Gobustan, with the identification of fault structures and microblocks located between them, as well as tectonic units - allochthon, parautochthon and autochthon. In one of these microblocks (Bayanata), there is the Shikhzarli mud volcano, which belongs to the parautochthon. Almost all the eruptions of the Shikhzarli and Gushchu mud volcanoes, as well as their last manifestations, are induced by earthquakes that have occurred in the regions close to them and are registered by 5–7 seismic stations. The previous eruption of the Gushchu mud volcano in the Shamakhi region in January 2020 was the result of tremors in the neighboring Ismayilli region. In the historical review of the considered mud volcanoes, characteristic and distinctive features of their manifestations are noted. The last (16th) eruption of the Gushchu mud volcano occurred from a new eruptive center, at a distance of 700 m to the north of the main crater of the volcano that has been active for more than a hundred years. Results. The results of geochemical analysis of volcanic breccias, especially oil-bearing rocks - sandstones and oil shales of Eocene-Miocene deposits are presented to assess the prospects for oil and gas content of the areas where the considered mud volcanoes are located. Within the Bayanata microblock, oil and gas accumulations can be discovered under a mud volcanic chamber
