The presence of areas of accumulation of hydrocarbons in the sedimentary strata is genetically related both to the conditions of sedimentation and to secondary changes in the properties of the geological environment, caused along with other and geodynamic processes. At the same time, it is the stress-strain state that is the key characteristic of the environment, the analysis of which makes it possible to predict the influence of geodynamic factors that cause deformation processes in the sedimentary stratum, on the formation of zones of decompaction and increased fracturing, areas of increased filtration-capacity properties of reservoir rocks, the direction of natural migration of hydrocarbons. Using the example of 3D seismic data obtained at the Akshabulak area, the possibility of integrating geomechanical modeling and additional express analysis of seismic data in solving problems related to determining the probable places of accumulations and directions of natural migration of hydrocarbons is shown.

The relevance of the article is associated with the importance of the object of the research. Dozens of unique and giant oil and gas fields, such as Urengoyskoye, Medvezhye, Yamburgskoye, Vyngapurovskoye, Messoyakhskoye, Nakhodkinskoye, Russkoye, have been identified within the Cenomanian complex. The main feature of Cenomanian rocks is their slow rock cementation. This leads to significant difficulties in core sampling and the following studies of it; that is the direct and most informative source of data on the composition and properties of rocks that create a geological section.The identification of the factors, which determine the slow rock cementation of reservoir rocks, allows establishing a certain order in sampling and laboratory core studies. Consequently, reliable data on the reservoir and estimation of hydrocarbon reserves both of discovered and exploited fields and newly discovered fields that are being developed on the territory of the Gydan peninsula and the Bolshekhetskaya depression will be obtained. This study is also important for the exploration and development of hydrocarbon resources of the continental shelf in the waters of the Arctic seas of Russia as one of the most promising areas.As a result of the analysis, it was found that the formation of rocks of the PK1-3 Cenomanian age of the Bolshekhetskaya depression happened under conditions of normal compaction of terrigenous sedimentary rocks that are located in the West Siberian basin. Slow rock cementation of reservoir rocks is associated with relatively low thermobaric conditions of their occurrence, as well as the low content of clay and absence of carbonate cements. Their lithological and petrophysical characteristics are close to the analogous Cenomanian deposits of the northern fields of Western Siberia and can be applied to other unconsolidated rocks studied areas.

Despite the ever-increasing use of 3D seismic data in today’s exploration and production activities, 2D seismic data continue to play an important role in the oil and gas industry. Interpretations of 2D regional and megaregional surveys are essential elements of integrated exploration programs, establishing frameworks for basin analysis, structural synthesis, and play fairway identification and mapping. When correlating and mapping horizons on 2D migrated seismic data, interpreters use certain practical techniques for handling structural misties, which are caused by the fundamental limitation of 2D migration to account for out-of-plane components of dip.

Energy-researched analysis of the wave field (ERA-WF) on the example of 3D seismic data Drobyshivska area is investigated. Results of the study are compared with the results of analysis of the wave field, made by the frequency Fourier method, Prony, Gilbert, wavelet functions, and the results of the parametric interpretation of geophysical parameters derived using a software system Petrel. We prove that the ERA-WF summarizes the methods mentioned and allows to determine the geophysical parameters of geological medium (GM) to study it before drilling and well logging concerning oil and gas saturation.
