Abstract New values of orbital elements for ten hyperbolic comets discovered during the past few years were determined on a basis of all their observations selected and weighted according to the objective mathematical criteria. For four comets the best representation of the complete observational material is given by the nongravitational model of their motion. The original and future orbits of the comets were computed by numerical integration of equations of motion. The Oort effect (a tendency for original 1/a values to range from 0 to + 100 x 10 exp -6 AU) is clearly seen for six comets. Modifications in original (1/a) values due to the nongravitational effects are discussed.
