Abstract

Over the recent decades, gas and oil fields have been intensively explored in the seas and oceans of the world. As part of the expedition of the Ukrainian research ship "Professor Vodyanitsky", gas flows from the bottom of the Black sea of the continental shoal located on the territory of Georgia were studied. In this article, we conducted an environmental study of the results obtained during the expedition. The analysis revealed the dangers that gas emissions found in this region may pose. The article presents map of the coastal shelf of Adjara with gas release points; Similar places of gas emissions on the black sea coast of Crimea are discussed; The results of gas extraction in the Caspian sea are presented; The nature of environmental changes caused by the removal of a layer of hydrogen sulfide from the sea depths to the upper layers of the sea during a gas eruption is analyzed.
