Geoinformatika, Issue 4

ISSN 1684-2189

Reviews the use of Earth remote-sensing equipment and direct-method contouring of hydrocarbon deposits to depths of 5,000 m. Methods are presented for identification, delineation and preliminary express-evaluation of recoverable hydrocarbon reserves from the measured geophysical characteristics of reservoirs. Practical work confirms that the developed remote-method workflow simplifies drilling-point selection.

UDC 550-837.3

Analyses self-ignition, volumetric explosions and detonation of hydrocarbon-gas mixtures in coal mines. A method for detecting high-pressure (>100 kg/cm²) accumulations of hydrocarbon gases under coal seams is described, with preventive measures proposed.

Experience of forecasting geological research of hydrocarbon anomalies with the help of remote resonance-test equipment of the geophysical complex "POISK"

UDC 550.837.3

Reports the use of POISK deep-Earth-sounding equipment for remote search and direct-method delineation of hydrocarbon-deposit areas to depths of up to 6,000 m, including reservoir-rock porosity. Practical work confirms effective drilling-point selection at depths up to 6 km.

Application of the remote geophysical complex "POISK". Solution of engineering and geological prospecting tasks (monograph, 5 parts)

Lambert Academic Publishing, Düsseldorf

ISBN 978-3-659-60461-4

Comprehensive monograph on the use of the POISK remote-geophysical complex for engineering and geological prospecting. Covers identification and delineation of hydrocarbon anomalies, depth and porosity measurement before drilling, and applied case studies including Black Sea coastal cleanup of dumped ammunition and chemical weapons.

Natural sea-water desalinators in the territory of the Crimea and the Russian Federation

N. I. Kovalev, S. V. Soldatova, L. I. Lukina

Sevastopol State University, Russian Federation

Reports the discovery and characterisation of natural sea-water desalination systems formed by secondary magmatic foci of extinct volcanoes in coastal regions. Includes proposals for use and recommendations for environmental protection.

Results of studying the mechanism of formation of underground fresh water near secondary magmatic focals of extinct volcanoes

N. I. Kovalev, V. A. Pukhliy, S. V. Soldatova

Sevastopol State University, Russian Federation

Reports the use of POISK deep-Earth-sounding equipment for remote search and contouring of groundwater accumulations and sources, including possible debit, temperature and salinity. Examines the link between groundwater sources and zones of past volcanic activity across multiple regions.
