Participation in the Cutting of Productive Layer Sediments of the Palchig Pilpilesi Structure to Build a 3D Geological Model of Separate Horizons and Layers to Increase the Efficiency of Field Development Analysis of Reservoir Indicators

The analysis of existing geological, geophysical researches and excavation works shows that, despite the fact that the Productive Layer (PG) sediments of the South Caspian Basin (SCB) have been the object of search and exploration for a long time, their hydrocarbon reserves have not been fully studied until now. Examination and summarization of geological-geophysical, drilling data, as well as the established 3D geological model show that the distribution of oil and gas deposits within local elevations is related to certain regularities. First of all, tectonic processes played a big role in the formation of these regularities. In the 3D geological modeling of the Palchig Pilpilesi deposit, the tectonic processes that took place in the sedimentation basin of the sedimentary complex, the development of uplifts, their complication with tectonic disturbances, and the effect of the change in the lithological composition and thickness of the horizons and layers that make up the productive layer section on the accumulation of hydrocarbon resources were considered.

Tracking the formation and evolution of the Ordos Block basement, North China Craton: U-Pb age and Lu-Hf isotope record of detrital zircons from the early Mesoproterozoic sandstones

The Ordos Block (OB) is generally considered to be an important micro-block concerning the early geological evolution of the North China Craton (NCC). Previous geophysical and limited geological researches for the OB basement have provided a preliminary understanding of the lithological assemblages and geological structure of the basement, but little was discussed about its formation time and early Precambrian evolution. In this contribution, to better understand the formation and evolution of the OB basement, the new LA-ICP-MS U-Pb ages, Lu-Hf isotope, and trace element composition have been carried for the detrital zircons from the sandstones of the Changcheng System overlying the OB basement. The youngest concordant U-Pb age constrains the Changcheng System to be deposited after ∼1.7 Ga, consistent with the Changcheng System in the other regions of the NCC. The 3.6–3.3 Ga detrital zircons preserved in the sandstones from the Changcheng System, associated with the 3.4 Ga inherited zircon in basement rocks, indicate the potential presence of Paleoarchean crustal materials in the OB. The 2.8–2.6 Ga zircons with positive εHf(t) values (+0.6 to +6.4) have the two-stage model ages (TDMC = 3.23–2.75 Ga) close to their formation ages, combined with the crustal thickening during this period, suggesting a major crustal growth in the early Neoarchean. In addition, the main age clusters of the 2.5–2.4 Ga, 2.2–2.0 Ga, and 1.95–1.8 Ga yield εHf(t) values of −6.9 to +7.7 with TDMC of 3.39–2.47 Ga, −13.4 to +7.5 with TDMC of 3.49–2.19 Ga, and −14.0 to +2.2 with TDMC of 3.41–2.40 Ga, respectively, indicative of three main stages of crustal reworking associated with two stage of minor juvenile crustal growth around 2.5–2.4 Ga and 2.2–2.0 Ga. They were corresponding to partial melting of the continental crust in the late Neoarchean, magmatism resulting from the plate subduction in the mid-Paleoproterozoic, and the collision and amalgamation between eastern and western blocks in the late Paleoproterozoic, respectively. All demonstrate that the OB was an ancient block formed mainly in the early Neoarchean and then subjected to three strong tectonothermal events of 2.5–2.4 Ga, 2.2–2.0 Ga, and 1.95–1.8 Ga, which occurred in the peripheral orogenic belts.

Geophysical Researches of Portals Will Allow to Discover Invisible Universes and Explore Them

The article proves that the version of the special theory of relativity (STR) presented in physics textbooks is incorrect. This is because in the early 20th century science lacked experimental knowledge required for the STR to be created, and the postulate (called the principle of light speed non-exceedance) that replaced the knowledge turned out to be incorrect and has been experimentally refuted in the 21st century. It is explained that tsunami and piano music would not exist, church bells would not ring and even swings would not swing on playgrounds, if the generally accepted version of the STR were true. Moreover, this version of the STR also implies that Ohm’s law as interpreted by Steinmetz used daily by millions of radio and electrical engineers in their practice does not exist, and therefore radio engineering and electrical engineering should not exist either. That is why, an alternative version of the STR has been created instead of the incorrect one. It follows from this that there is an invisible Multiverse whose universes are interconnected by numerous portals, including those located on Earth. And at least some of anomalous zones are entrances to portals. Geophysical exploration of portals is very necessary, as they will allow us to obtain new valuable knowledge about our Multiverse and confirm the correctness of the alternative version of STR.

Вивчення малоамплітудної тектоніки вугільних родовищ геофізичними методами

An analysis was made as to the usage of geological-geophysical methods for studying of low-amplitude tectonic dislocations in coal-enclosing massifs. As a result of geophysical researches conducted at coal fields, mine fields and mine workings of the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin, the methods of field observations by means of natural electromagnetic and electric fields were worked and their results were processed for prediction and diagnostics of tectonic dislocations with a break of continuity and zones of unstressed state. To raise the efficiency of the methods of electromagnetic fields it is recommended to carry out measurements at wide frequency range (from 5 to 50 hz) with orientation of the antenna according to the world sides (azimuthal surveying) and at narrow frequency range (5; 12.5; 17 khz) with the southern orientation of the antenna (frequency sensing). According to azimuthal surveying one can calculate the vector of maximum intensity of electromagnetic radiation. It was ascertained that over distinctive dislocation one can observe the variation in the direction and absolute value of vectors. Displacement of the anomaly of electromagnetic radiation intensity at different frequency range by profile indicates the direction of dipping of the area of displacement of dislocations with a break of continuity. The method of natural electromagnetic impulse field of the Earth fixes both the dislocations, distinguishes by geological-geophysical methods before, and new low-amplitude dislocations and stressed zones.Tectonic dislocations, that are displayed only in Paleozoic deposits, are distinguished by contrast anomalies of electromagnetic radiation in electromagnetic field, but dislocations with a break of continuity that cut the Mesozoic thickness and in most cases are accompanied by zones of rock fracturing in the Cretaceous deposits: by wide destructive anomalies. Plots over worked-out lavas with stressed deformational state are characterized by strongly differential abnormal values of the intensity of natural impulse electromagnetic field of the Earth. The method of natural electric field allows us to detect zones with water-bearing fracturing rocks in the upper part of the geological section. Methods of natural impulse electromagnetic field of the Earth and natural electric field may be used both independently and in the complex with other geophysical methods for detection and tracing of tectonic dislocations and dynamically-unstressed zones. Thus, the optimum apparatus-methodical complex for detection and diagnostics of low-amplitude dislocations with a break of continuity of coal-enclosing series by electromagnetic methods (NIEMF, NEF) was formed and effective methods of field observations, processinf and interpretation of data were developed.

Stress and strain state of the Kazakh shield from the earthquake focal mechanisms data

The paper presents the results obtained during the study of seismicity of the Kazakh shield based on the data from seismic stations of the Institute of Geophysical Researches of Kazakhstan which are a part of the international monitoring systems. Emphasis has been placed on seismic activation in 2016–2018 in the middle part of the Central Kazakhstan arch, previously considered aseismic. The earthquake focal mechanisms determined for 40 seismic events recorded in the investigated area are based on the displacement directions of the first arriving P waves.On the basis of the analysis of the earthquake focal mechanism data set, an assessment has been made of the present-day stress-strain state of the Earth’s crust of the low-seismicity Kazakh shield. It is shown that a system of stresses in the investigated area is characterized by conditions for near-horizontal compression whose direction is consistent with the direction of movement of the Alpine geomorphostructures. It has been found that the earthquake sources in the investigated area are dominated by reverse faults and reverse-slip faults which correspond structurally to the northeast-striking and submeridional tectonic faults, thus testifying to present-day seismic activation of the northeastern thrusts.This study allowed for concluding that the seismic events considered are human-induced, i.e. technogenic-tectonic, earthquakes. A long-term technogenic impact reducing the strength of rocks in fault zones can be a cause of critical stress drop in earthquake sources located in the Kazakh shield. The data on the character of motions and stresses in the earthquake sources influencing on shaking intensity will be used in combination with other methods for the assessment of natural and technogenic hazards related to geodynamic processes.

Geodetic characterization of active Katrol Hill Fault (KHF) of Central Mainland Kachchh, western India

After the M7.7 earthquake in 2001, the Kachchh rift basin became the focus of various geological and geophysical researches on the western Indian plate. As an essential technology, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has been utilized to study the deformation pattern in the central mainland Kachchh. We select the east-west striking Katrol Hill Fault (KHF) as the study area and analyze the crustal deformation pattern using the datasets from 2014 to 2019. The geodetic results along the KHF reveal a mean deformation of about 2.1 mm per year, which is higher in the eastern part and lower in the central and western parts. The investigation of deformation and derived strain reveals the segmented behavior of KHF, while the dominance of compressive strain (maximum 22 nanostrain/yr) in the eastern segment makes it the most active segment of the KHF. A higher deformation rate along the eastern KHF can be considered significant in terms of seismic hazard for this part of the Indian plate.

PROBLEMS OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATIONAL PETROLEUM INDUSTRY

Development of the country’s economy, industrial and economic infrastructure is impossible without the use of oil and gas, as well as their products. Ukraine does not fully meet its own needs for fuel and energy resources. An important role in the solving of this issue belongs to geophysical research methods, their integrated complex and the types of geological and geophysical researches. In many cases, the materials of geophysical research methods are the main ones with respect to the geological documentation of wells that were drilled for the search and exploration of productive reservoirs. Domestic oil and gas service companies need government support to increase quality of geological and geophysical services, updating the equipment fleet, and ground equipment, introducing modern technologies to enable the development of equal competition with foreign companies both in the domestic and global markets.

Novel non-magnetic steel for high-performance drilling and logging operations

The paper presents the results of realized project aimed on development of the Russian non-magnetic steel for borehole equipment. Development specialists of high-tech equipment for the RF fuel and energy complex (FEC) have noted the complete dependence on deliveries of foreign non-magnetic steels from EU countries, China, USA. This dependence on delivery of import products increases the risks of both operating activity (due to trade restrictions) and economical efficiency of the FEC enterprises (Russian ruble exchange rate grew by ~30 % to Euro in 2020). It concerns users of mineral resources, oil service companies, developers and manufacturers of high-tech equipment for boreholes drilling as well geophysical researches. Possibility of establishment of non-magnetic steel production in Russia was analyzed, the plan for realization of this project was prepared, the technical and project risks were evaluated, the industrial demand for non-magnetic steel was assessed, the industrial technical requirements and testing techniques were developed. The cooperation chain including purchaser, manufacturer of bar products of non-magnetic steel and producer of non-magnetic steel itself was formed in 2020. Three pilot melts of non-magnetic steel (totally 18 t) were conducted and bars of different diameters (from 35 to 140 mm) were forged. The plant laboratorial testing displayed the following bar parameters: yield strength 1,093 MPa; tensile strength 1,155 MPa; impact energy 242 J. This steel as also characterized by resistance to intergranular corrosion. Relative magnetic permeability made 1.003. The laboratorial tests were conducted in accordance with ASTM techniques. The following equipment range was fabricated: non-magnetic subs Flow-Sub, non-magnetic heavy-weight drill collars etc. At present time the field testing takes place in the oil and gas provenances of Western Siberia, Yamal and in Volga-Ural region within the framework of drilling of oil and gas wells.

Electrical resistivity tomography and digital aerial photogrammetry in the research of the “Bachledzki Hill” active landslide – in Podhale (Poland)

Podhale is a region in Poland at high risk of landslide. Sudden activation of landslides is the greatest threat to the local infrastructure. This work describes the joint use of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and aerial photogrammetry in the study of the active “Bachledzki Hill” landslide. In order to determine landslide dynamics, a digital version of stereo-pairs of aerial images from 1972 and 2004, as well as the airborne laser scanning (ALS) results from 2014 were used. Based on the data, first, three photogrammetric digital elevation models were generated. Then, in the ArcGIS software two differential models were generated (2004–1970 and 2014–1970) ground surface displacements in the landslide area and two other models illustrating the volume of the displaced material. Our research has shown that the landslide has been active to varying degrees since 1970. The landslide geometry, as well as the structure and lithology of the flysch bedrock were characterized using the ERT method. The resistivity images allowed the interpretation of the faults and lithology of the bedrock, as well as the determination of the depth and geometry of the landslide slip surface. Areas with water-logged rocks or rocks containing clay in the structure of the landslide are located. In this areas further movements may be generated. In addition, a voxel 3D ERT model of landslide and a model of rupture surface were generated. Both models allowed the spatial interpretation and visualization of the landslide structure and the geological structure of flysch rocks, as well as the spatial imaging of the surface rupture. The results of geophysical surveying made it possible to understand the cause of the activity of the landslide. The proposed comprehensive application of geophysical researches, geological modeling and digital aerial photogrammetry methods may become a common research methodology in the detailed study of landslides. • The aim of the photogrammetric research was to describe and understand the kinematics of landslides. • Geoelectrical methods, such as Electrical Resistivity Tomography, can be successfully used in landslide studies. • The 3D ERT voxel model facilitated geological interpretation. • Based on geophysical data and archival wells the surface of rupture model was developed using geostatistical methods.

ГЕОЭКОЛОГИЧЕСКИЙ МОНИТОРИНГ ВОЗДУШНОЙ СРЕДЫ ГОРОДСКИХ АГЛОМЕРАЦИЙ

The article investigates the problems of geoecological impact of radon irradiation on human life within the agglomeration. The World Health Organization considers radon to be an element with latent carcinogenic properties. Currently, determining radon hazards at the regional level is a complex problem. Regional radon monitoring has not developed a geo-ecological strategy for assessing the complex impact of the radon hazard of residential premises. The statistical materials of Rospotrebnadzor and experimental geophysical researches of radon content in inhabited rooms and soil air are used. The purpose of the research is the development of geoecological approach for estimation of radon hazard of the dwelling premises surveyed in the territory of Voronezh and Voronezh region. The collected bank of information about radon concentration in the dwelling premises was subjected to statistical analysis on the basis of which the degree of their radon protection was found out.

Performance of special engineering and geological researches in the territories of industrial and urban agglomerations

Formulation of the problem. The article is devoted to the description of the implementation of special engineering-geological researches in the territories of industrial and urban agglomerations. The purpose of the article is to show the possibilities of special geophysical researches while studying hazardous geological processes and the determination of the physical and mechanical properties of soils under the foundations of buildings in conditions of dense urban development. Materials and methods. To achieve the main goal, special equipment was used in the work – a horizontal sounding and logging unit. It is intended for mass and most reliable research of soil properties at the base of existing buildings and structures. Using this installation, the following tasks are solved: drilling horizontal wells; selection of soil monoliths; static sounding using «Pika» equipment; radioactive logging; pressiometric researches of soils; immersion of injectors to consolidate the soil. Results. Analysis of the performed engineering and geological surveys at the site of the emergency workshop № 22 of PA «Krasitel» in the city of Rubezhnoye, Lugansk region and at the site of reconstruction of the hostel on the street Studencheskaya, 4 in Kharkov showed the possibility of using special geophysical research in the conditions of industrial and urban agglomerations. To find out the cause of the emergency deformation of the structure of the emergency workshop № 22 of PA «Krasitel», a study of soils was carried out using the method of radioactive logging. Obtained results are presented in the form of a diagram of the isodensity of the base soils. Zone of decompaction of the base soils has been identified and delineated. Based on the materials obtained, it was concluded that the main reason for the collapse of a part of the building is the additional subsidence of the foundations as a result of mechanical removal of soils into the destroyed sewer collector located below the base of the foundations. On the site of reconstruction of the hostel on the street Studencheskaya, 4 in Kharkov, the density of soils under the foundations of the existing building was determined by the method of gamma-gamma logging. It was found that under the foundations in the zone of stress development, an increase in the density of the foundation soils is recorded. Outside the stressed zone (between foundations), the density of soils is significantly reduced and corresponds to the background values. Scientific novelty and practical significance. Scientific novelty – the choice of a complex of special geophysical studies in researches of hazardous geological processes and to determine the physical and mechanical properties of soils under the foundations of buildings in conditions of dense urban development of industrial and urban agglomerations is scientifically substantiated. Practical application of the proposed results – the validity of the use of geophysical methods in the practice of exploration work on a par with the traditionally used equipment has been confirmed.

Factors of gas accumulations formation in oil-bearing sediments and in casing annulus of wells

Gas component study is one of the important tasks of petroleum geology. Gas component can exist in various forms in sedimentary rocks. Of great interest is nitrogen, the gaseous accumulations of which are formed in oil-bearing strata, causing complications during the oilfield development. The problem of abnormal nitrogen accumulations had great relevance in the fields of the Volga-Ural petroleum province, which is one of the long-term developed with a large stock of wells for various purposes. This article discusses possible sources of gaseous nitrogen and the reasons for its accumulations in oil-bearing reservoirs. The main purpose of the article is to clarify the reasons for the gaseous nitrogen and its deposits formation. The main patterns of the areal distribution of nitrogen gas accumulations in oil-bearing strata are revealed on the basis of field, hydrogeological, geological and geophysical researches data analysis. It has been established that during the gas caps formation, the source of gaseous nitrogen is its dissolved compounds in groundwater and oil, biochemical decomposition of which leads to the dissolved molecular nitrogen accumulation in a liquid medium. The release of free gaseous nitrogen and the formation of its accumulations is associated with the decompression of formation waters for natural (geological) or man-made reasons (hydrocarbons extraction). Disturbance of the natural hydrodynamic regime in oil-bearing formations leads to the release of gaseous nitrogen and the formation of its accumulations under favorable conditions (the presence of reservoirs, structures and impermeable rocks in the top of the formation).

Geophysical researches in mine

Introduction. Geophysical methods of rock mass research are among the most effective ways of solving various mining problems being widely used in mining, gas and oil industry, as well as in science. They allow to conduct prospecting and prospect evaluation remotely, to reveal structural heterogeneity, cavities, zones of contacts of various environments in the rock mass with rather high precision. The article contains an example of solution to the problem of finding a fallen and spread through three-tier shelf in an operated shaft. Research methodology. Spectral seismic profile (SSP) method and GPR were used for prospecting. SSP is based on the dependence between the spectral composition of the oscillatory process occurring when rock mass exposed surface undergoes impact effect, and the structure of the rock mass. GPR method is based on the reflection of the electromagnetic wave from boundaries between media with different electrophysical properties. Research results. Geophysical methods have made it possible to identify the following boundaries of the metal shelf filled with rock mass inside the vertical shaft: 5.5–6.0 m, 10.5–11.0 m, 15 m. Combined results of the two measurement methods and their comparative analysis show rather high convergence therefore confirming the reliability of the obtained results. Exploration drilling of downholes from the level working confirmed the obtained results.

2D INVERSION OF DIPOLE-DIPOLE AXIAL ARRAY WITH LINEAR CAPACITIVE ELECTRODES FOR ENGINEERING TASKS

Abstract: at present, the range of tasks solved by geophysical methods is expanding. This is facilitated by the progress in the development of geophysical equipment, methods for performing field work and data processing. At the same time, the conditions of research are complicated. Often it is the site of industrial facilities or urban areas. The main factors complicating the implementation of the geophysical researches at urban areas are the high level of industrial noise and solid coverage. The article discusses the possibility of using resistance technology with 2D data inversion when solving engineering problems in urban areas. The conditions of the use of the measurement technique with capacitive electrodes for approximation by grounded electrode array at a direct current are shown. The results of the comparison of the dipole-dipole method with capacitive electrode array and its equivalent with galvanic grounded electrodes are presented. To assess the effectiveness of using of the capacitive electrodes array for solving engineering tasks in the city, the authors carried out researches on a site of regularly emerging subsidence of pavement in the center of St. Petersburg. According to the research results, a 2D resistivity section of the pavement deformation was constructed. The results were interpreted using geological information. The studies revealed a spatial correlation of the identified anomalies of specific electrical resistances with the local site of the embankment pavement destruction. The possible causes of the identified anomalies are described. The results of electrical prospecting with linear capacitive electrodes can be used for detailing engineering geological structure of urbanized areas.

Geophysical researches for identification of hidden faults in the western region of Banesh, Fars, Iran

Possessing seismic information on active faults is required for earthquake risk estimation. In earthquake prone areas such as Zagros Mountains in which active basement faults are covered by Phanerozoic sedimentary cover, we can use geophysical data such as special resistivity and employ Schlumberger array as an inexpensive and quick method to identify blind faults with high accuracy. For this purpose, 30 vertical electric soundings and 10 profiles were implemented on Banesh Plain in Fars Province of Iran. Using data from geoelectric sections combined with qualitative data, we determined blind faults and sub fractures. The results show two faults zones along east-southwest and northwest-southeast lines and some sub faults and fractures along the Zagros flow.

Determination of hydrocarbon potentials in Masu area northeastern Nigeria using forward and inverse modeling of aeromagnetic and aerogravity data

Aeromagnetic and aerogravity data covering Masu area, which lies within latitudes 12°00′ to 13°00′ North and longitudes 12°30′ to 14°00′ East in Nigerian sector of Chad Basin have been interpreted qualitatively and quantitatively. Regional-residual separation was carried out by applying polynomial fitting (first order), which was fitted by least square method. First order was used because it is the best regional fit for our data as it reflected the available geological information of the area. The residual values of both magnetic and Bouguer anomalies obtained were used to produce the residual magnetic intensity and residual gravity maps respectively. These maps show intrusive basement rocks in the eastern part of Masu. The forward and inverse of aeromagnetic data modeling estimated basement depths for profiles P1 and P2 were 4300 and 1195 m, with respective magnetic susceptibility values of 0.0003 and 0.0250, which indicate minerals like limestone and marble. Similarly, the estimated basement depths from the forward and inverse of aerogravity data modeling are 6524 and 4312 m for P1 and P2 with density contrasts of 0.72 and 0.255 g/cm3. The results from this work indicate that the area has some geologic features suitable for hydrocarbon and mineral deposits. Hence, further geophysical researches need to be carried out to ascertain the type of minerals existing in the area.
