In connection with the need to increase the energy resources of Ukraine, it is essential to expand the areas and depths of prospecting, as well as to improve the methodology and technology of oil and gas exploration. The most promising area for the search for new oil and gas fields in Ukraine remains the Pripyat-Dneprovsko-Donetsk oil and gas province. Increasing the depth of new energy sources because of the increasing cost of exploration and deep drilling requires more accurate and efficient predictions, which should be based on a more rigorous scientific substantiation of new directions of work and the application of new efficient technologies. The article develops the concept of deep degassing of the Earth, which is of great importance for the development of modern ideas about the formation and geological history of the Pripyat-Dnieper-Donetsk oil and gas province. The authors considered the nature of oil and gas accumulation areas and their relationship with the “pipes” of deep degassing of the Earth, as well as the possibilities of structural-tectonic, lithological-geochemical and remote sensing methods in identifying new oil and gas fields in the Pripyat-Dnieper-Donetsk oil and gas province and signs of their connection with «pipes» hydrocarbon deep degassing of the Earth. To implement new methodology and technology of prospecting, exploration of oil and gas fields, the article proposes to make wider use of the modern capabilities of satellite methods, which make it possible to quickly cover large areas with multiple surveys, increase the efficiency of solving geological problems, and also significantly reduce the cost of oil and gas exploration.

Subsea production systems have been an accepted method of developing offshore oil and gas fields since the installation of the first subsea trees in the early 1960s offshore California. Generally subsea completions have been done from floating drilling vessels on wells with subsea wellhead equipment. A number of wells have been completed subsea by bottom supported jackup rigs on wells drilled using mudline suspension equipment. The subsea completion equipment and methods utilised to adapt mudline suspension wells for a subsea production tree are described. This method of completion offers important benefits as it allows completion of wildcat or delineation wells, it can be used in areas of small, scattered reservoirs, and it can be used in conjunction with floating production systems. The cost associated with these subsea completions is roughly equivalent to those of standard subsea completions from floating vessels. An overview of a typical completion system is presented and compared.

Indonesia is one of the countries in the world that have potential of natural resources such as oil and gas. As a resource, that plays an important role in the economic life, the use of oil and gas needs to be managed properly. One of the resources of oil and gas that have significant production value and impact to the economy of Indonesia is the “X” field at East Kalimantan. This study aims to provide analyze policies that can encourage the management of the remaining oil and gas fields more optimally. Data used in the study came from the results of the discussions, field observations, literature review government policies and company documentation on 2019. The analytical tool used is the multi criteria decision analysis (MCDA) method. Based on the analysis of policies for the development of the "X" field by taking into account economic, social, and HSE (Health, Safety and Environment)  criteria results in a conclusion that Gross Split policy alternative has the highest value compared to the Cost Recovery policy and the Cost and Fee policy for the design of oil and gas management policies.

Trapped concentrations of oil and natural gas in the earth will sometimes release vapors, whose presence and motion might be used to help infer where resources are located. Tests for carbon anomalies may be applied to search for hydrocarbons in the earth, and alterations in [Formula: see text] in the earth can be used to locate regions of subsurface gas flow. In a recent report we have observed both such anomalies over the Cement, Oklahoma oil and gas fields (Fleischer and Turner, 1984). Because of this result, whose generality is not yet known, it is of interest to know where other similar carbon and gas‐flow anomalies exist. (We should note that extensive examples of carbon anomalies in the soil have been presented; many of these are referenced in Fleischer and Turner, 1984.) This short note describes one such geochemical anomaly that has been observed using three methods of mapping—one radiometric, one isotopic, and one chemical. Testing whether this anomaly is associated with hydrocarbons is a logical next step that has not been taken.

The article focuses on consideration of complex aerospace monitoring of aggregated territories. It is made to assess the processes took place in "lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere" system when exploration of oil and gas fields. The research is based on the remote aerospace sounding's method. As a result of this research we have an access to the complex analysis of huge range of data. We have an opportunity to calculate a "convolution operation" in the systems of complex aerospace monitoring in order to identify the signs that can help to indicate the territory having oil and gas deposits. To sum up, the research reveals the correlation between the huge range of anomalies of the nature and the presence of oil and gas deposits in the earth on the basis of remote aerospace monitoring sounding method.

The article deals with the research of the potential of oil-and-gas content within the Western Ukrainian oil and gas region.  The main directions and ways of increasing oil and gas production are determined. Consequently, the discovery of new hydrocarbon fields is the major direction to boost oil and gas production. The issue of the discovery of new oil and gas fields is suggested to divide into the following directions: a search for oil and gas fields at shallow depths (short-term prospect), a search for oil and gas fields at mid-depths and a search for oil and gas fields at great depths (the main prospects of increasing oil and gas production). The geological and geophysical data were thoroughly analyzed throughout structural and tectonic units within the Western region of Ukraine with the aim of substantiating the prospects of their oil-and-gas content and introduction of new directions of oil-and-gas exploration. The prospects of oil-and-gas content of the Neogene and the Mesozoic deposits of the exterior of the pre-Carpathian depression and flysch of the interior of the pre-Carpathian depression are provided. The prospects of oil-and-gas content of the Cretaceous and the Paleogene deposits of folded Carpathians are characterized. The promising directions for further oil-and-gas exploration within indicated tectonic elements of Carpathian region are identified; the top priority project sites are suggested. Wildcat drilling and further oil-and-gas exploration are strongly recommended for all identified project sites. The research has identified the most promising exploration project sites. All of them are illustrated with appropriate maps and cross-sections. Thus, the most promising ones at shallow depths (up to 2000 m) are the following ones: South-Slyvkinske, Anhelivka, Hoshiv and Verkhnii Hutyn elevations. At mid-depths there are Pechenizhyn, Kliuchiv, Uhilnia and Boratychi elevations. At depths over 4000 m there are the following ones: Horodyshche structure, Posada, Dubliany, South-Lopushnia, Biskiv, Sloboda-Dolyna and Mizhrichchia elevations, Pidrezhzhia and Dobromyl-Strilbychi structures. The assessment of the resource potential of identified exploration project sites was done.

Kajian geologi migas di Cekungan Tarakan relatif sangat kurang dibandingkan dengan Cekungan Kutai, diantaranya mengenai analisis stratigrafi sekuen yang lebih detil dan komprehensif, tingkat variasi lapisan sedimen di daerah transisi dengan laut dangkal sampai sedang dan keterkaitan dengan penentuan potensi migas. Padahal eksplorasi minyak dan gas bumi di Cekungan Tarakan, Kalimantan Timur telah mengalami proses waktu yang sangat panjang bahkan termasuk salah satu eksplorasi tertua di Indonesia. Namun eksplorasi di wilayah lepas pantai termasuk di timur Pulau Tarakan masih belum ditemukan lapangan migas yang bernilai ekonomis. Ini sangat berbeda dengan hasil eksplorasi Cekungan Kutai di lepas pantai dan laut-dalam yang telah mengalami kemajuan signifikan dalam 10 tahun terakhir setelah ditemukan beberapa lapangan migas laut-dalam seperti West Seno dan Gendalo. Berdasarkan pada pemerolehan data yang terdiri dari penampang seismik 2D, log sumur, rangkuman data biostratigrafi dan data check-shot, kajian dilakukan secara bertahap mulai dari analisis sekuen dan korelasi log sumur, interpretasi dan analisis seismik stratigrafi, pemetaan bawah permukaan, dan penentuan lokasi yang berpotensi migas. Tahapan metodologi kajian ini menggunakan beberapa perangkat lunak yang diproses secara integratif. Hasil akhir kajian dari integrasi peta struktur kedalaman dan peta isopach serta dukungan data petrofisik dari aspek kualitas batuan reservoir diperoleh dua lokasi yang berpotensi migas: Potensi Migas-1 di bagian tenggara dekat Pulau Tarakan merupakan jebakan struktur antiklin yang dikontrol sesar-sesar inversi dan Potensi Migas-2 di lepas pantai bagian timur wilayah kajian berupa jebakan struktur hidrokarbon sebagai sebuah antiklin yang memanjang relatif arah SEE – NWW. Kata kunci: Tarakan, sekuen, seismik, potensi migas Study of Petroleum geology in the Tarakan Basin is relatively less than in the Kutai Basin such as detailed and comprehensively sequence stratigraphy, variation of sediment layering from transition to outer-neritic zone and its related to determination of oil and gas potential locations. Oil and gas exploration in Tarakan Basin, East Kalimantan, has been carried out for the last a hundred years ago and its include as the oldest basin in Indonesia. Unfortunately, oil and gas field in eastern part of offshore Tarakan Island has not yet been discovered significantly. In contrast, offshore and deep-water oil and gas fields of Kutai Basin has been discovered significantly i.e. West Seno and Gendalo Fields. Based on data of 2D seismic in SEGY-files, well log in LAS-file, biostratigraphy and check-shot data, then steps of research followed by a sequence analysis, wells correlation, interpretation and analysis of seismic stratigraphy, subsurface mapping and determination of oil and gas potential locations. The results of this study are oil and gas potency 1 and potency 2. Potency 1 is located in south-eastern part of Tarakan Island where anticlinal traps are controlled by inversion faults. In contrast, potency 2 is an anticlinal trap located in offshore at the eastern part of the study area. Key words: Tarakan, sequence, seismic, oil and gas potential
