Abstract

In the innovative development of oil and gas geology of sedimentary basins of ancient platforms, a complex analysis of Earth remote sensing data from space and geological and geophysical information in the search for deep oil from the standpoint of the abiogenic-mantle genesis of hydrocarbons is of particular relevance. In order to increase the efficiency of geological exploration for oil, special attention is paid to identifying the relationship of oil and gas content with mantle foci of generation of hydrocarbon fluids and zones of their localised discharge in the Earth’s crust. As a result of structural and tectonic interpretation of space information and seismic data, it is possible to map the geofluidodynamic structures of unloading deep hydrocarbons in the sedimentary cover. This makes it possible to identify oil-promising areas within certain areas of oil and gas basins and thereby contributes to the conduct of oil prospecting.
