There are very few tectonic maps of oil and gas areas of the Republic and explanatory notes to them. They contain, in large numbers, factual material and important theoretical and applied conclusions. However, the results of seismic surveys carried out over the past 25 years indicate some shortcomings in these maps. The paper provides specific examples that prove the correctness of this conclusion and recommendations for their elimi nation.

2D And 3D

The desire to conduct onshore seismic surveys without cables has been an elusive dream since the dawn of seismic exploration. Since the late 1970s, seismic surveys were conducted with cabled multi-channels acquisition systems. As the number of channels steadily grew, a fundamental restriction appeared with hundreds of kilometres of line cables dragged on the ground. Seismic surveys within rugged terrain—across rivers, steep cliffs, urban areas, and culturally and environmentally sensitive zones—were both challenging and expansive exercises. Modern technology has made different cable-free solutions practical. High-resolution analogue to digital converters are now affordable, as are GPS radios for timing and location. Microprocessors and memory are readily available for autonomous recording systems, along with a battery the size and weight of a field nodal now promising to power an acquisition unit for as long as required for normal seismic crew operations. Many successful 2D and 3D seismic data acquisition using cable-free autonomous nodal systems were attempted in the past few years; however, there remain a number of concerns with these systems. The first concern queries whether the units are working according to manufacturer specifications during the data acquisition window. The second is the limited or no real-time data quality control that inspires sceptics to use the term blind acquisition to nodal operations. The third is the traditional question of geophone array versus point receiver acquisition. Although a string of the geophone can be connected to autonomous nodes, the preference is to deploy a single or internal geophone with the nodes to maintain the proposed flexibility of cable-free recording systems. This case study elaborates on the benefits of the cable-free seismic surveys, with specific examples of 2D and 3D exploration programs conducted in Australia in the past few years. Optimisation of field crew size, field crew resources, cost implications, and footprint to the environment, wildlife and domestic livestock will be discussed. In addition, the study focuses on the data quality/data assurance and the processes implanted during data acquisition to maintain equivalent industry standards to cable recording. Emphases will also include data analysis and test results of the geophone array versus the cable-free point receiver recording.

Background. The West Siberian basin which is one of the main oil and gas regions of Russia is characterized not only by classical structural traps but also by extremely complex geological objects of Achimov sequence. Thereby, it is quite difficult to evaluate perspectives of license areas within which we can discover those Achimov type of deposits, especially at regional stage exploration in terms of a complete absence of 3D seismic data and uneven coverage of area by 2D seismic surveys. Aim. This article is devoted to the methodology description for probabilistic assessment of the resource base of non-structural traps in the Achimov strata in areas with different 2D-seismic exploration degree. Materials and methods. The methodology based on the “density” method which in relation to the evaluated area uses statistics of estimated parameters and number of bodies in the field analogs. The general line of this paper is how to use this methodology for resource base evaluation in the zones of Achimov deposits intersection as the most promising from the point of further development. Results. As part of the project evaluation according to the proposed approach, the resource base was divided into components — resources of objects in areas of possible intersection and resources of single, non-intersecting objects. Conclusions. It provides an opportunity to spot and conduct a technical and economic assessment of previously uneconomic reservoirs.

The article presents the development history of the oil and gas industry in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). It is shown that during the first seismic exploration, prospecting for fields was carried out exclusively in the lower reaches of the Vilyui River. These works made it possible to identify the large Khapchagai gas region in Mesozoic deposits in the eastern Vilyui syneclise and discover a number of gas fields. Traps on them are typical platform structures - brachyanticlines with first degrees of dips, without any traces of disjunctive tectonic dislocations. The latter are predicted here lower in the section, starting from the Permian top. Scientific concepts of oil and gas traps revealed in various years in Western Yakutia in the course of geological exploration, from the period of inition of the oil and gas geophysical service in the republic (1950) to the present, are considered. The evolution of concepts of the oil and gas trap structure is shown, using the example of Srednebotuobinskoye and Verkhnevilyuchanskoye fields. This evolution was carried out in the process of geological exploration due to a more complete record-keeping of disjunctive disllocations and their role in the structure of traps.

The prospects of oil and gas potential of the Aldan-Maya depression, located in the south-eastern part of the Siberian platform, are considered. The lithological-stratigraphic characteristic of the Riphean-Cambrian section has been given, and the compositional features of the organic matter and its bituminous part have been considered. Based on the analysis of geological development history and the seismic exploration results (2014), the platform part territory of the Aldan-Maya depression along the western border expanded to the middle flow of the Amga River. Three main oil and gas potential reservoirs were separated in the cross section of the depression on base geological and geochemical data. The most prospective areas are the middle flow of the Ingili River (the right inflow of the Maya River), where crystal basement is on the surface (Khabarovsk region), and row anticline structures at adjacent platform part near the Aldan-Amga interfluve of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). According to the seismic exploration data of “Yakutskgeofizika” OJSC (2014-2016), six local low-amplitude structures of submeridional strike were identified: Belkachy, Bilir, Taryng-Elga, South-Bilir, Mil, Taryng. In our opinion the Belkachy local structure located on the western margin of the Aldan-Maya depression could be the most prospective object. In its western pericline, an oil seepage is detected on the surface. In conclusion we suggest at a long-term perspective to prolong research on oil and gas potential of the upper part of the Malgin suite of the Middle Riphean as a prospective area of shale oil and gas.

Seismoacoustic entropy analysis (SAE-analysis) and the method of frequency compositions (MFC) are methods of seismic exploration aimed at solving problems of direct search for hydrocarbons based on the results of seismic exploration in promising areas. Both methods use the seismoacoustic response of a hydrocarbon deposit when interacting with the incident wave front as a search criterion. The location of the deposit is determined through dynamic processing and statistical analysis of the spectral characteristics of the wave field. The article presents the results of the forecast of oil saturation by the methods of MFC and SAE-analysis on the territory of Kazakhstan.

What is—or makes a place—a ‘historic battlefield’? From one perspective the answer is a simple one—it is a place where large numbers of people came together in an organized manner to fight one another at some point in the past. But from another perspective it is far more difficult to identify. Quite why any such location is a place of battle—rather than any other kind of event—and why it is especially historic is more difficult to identify. This book sets out an answer to the question of what a historic battlefield is in the modern imagination, drawing upon examples from prehistory to the twentieth century. Considering battlefields through a series of different lenses, treating battles as events in the past and battlefields as places in the present, the book exposes the complexity of the concept of historic battlefield and how it forms part of a Western understanding of the world. Taking its lead from new developments in battlefield study—especially archaeological approaches—the book establishes a link to and a means by which these new approaches can contribute to more radical thinking about war and conflict, especially to Critical Military and Critical Security Studies. The book goes beyond the study of battles as separate and unique events to consider what they mean to us and why we need them to have particular characteristics. It will be of interest to archaeologists, historians, and students of modern war in all its forms.

The Right

Through the case of the New Right movement in South Korea in the early 2000s, this article explores how history has become a battleground on which the Right tried to regain its political legitimacy in the postauthoritarian context. Analyzing disputes over historiography in recent decades, this article argues that conservative intellectuals—academics, journalists, and writers—play a pivotal role in constructing conservative historical narratives and building an identity for right-wing movements. By contesting what they viewed as “distorted” leftist views and promoting national pride, New Right intellectuals positioned themselves as the guardians of “liberal democracy” in the Republic of Korea. Existing studies of the Far Right pay little attention to intellectual circles and their engagement in civil society. By examining how right-wing intellectuals appropriated the past and shaped triumphalist national imagery, this study aims to better understand the dynamics of ideational contestation and knowledge production in Far Right activism.
