Abstract

Global geodynamic processes have a significant influence on the tempo of human society development and can cause the complete devastation of large areas of the Earth and mass mortality in a number of catastrophic cases. Technogenous factors can sometimes trigger geodynamic events. The potential consequences of natural and technogenous disasters became apparent during the catastrophe on the Deepwater Horizon platform on April 20, 2010. This paper takes a brief look at some aspects of this disaster. The possibilities of preventing the similar events in the future are discussed here. For this purpose, the development of a geodynamics information system (IS-Geodynamics) based on a network of global (subglobal) monitoring of the Earth’s hydrogeodeformation (HGD) field, is suggested.
