OOO Gazprom geologorazvedka completed seismic exploration in the North – Kharasaveysky subsoil plot in the Kara Sea. The research area was almost 2,000 square kilometers. Of these, about a thousand passed in shallow water. Work on this section of the Arctic shelf was carried out in two stages on two vessels – "Academician Nemchinov" in the shallow part and "Akademik Primakov" in the deep water. The results will give a complete picture of the structure of the region along the section of the Cretaceous and Middle Jurassic deposits, with which the main share of the oil and gas potential of Yamal is associated. completed 20 thousand square meters. km of 3D seismic. Obtaining high-quality geophysical data in licensed areas, where exploratory drilling will be carried out in the future, greatly increases its accuracy and efficiency. Seismic exploration within the North-Kharasaveysky subsoil area should provide a study of the geological structure of the area of work on the section of Cretaceous and Middle Jurassic deposits, with which the main share of the oil and gas potential is associated.
