Trapped concentrations of oil and natural gas in the earth will sometimes release vapors, whose presence and motion might be used to help infer where resources are located. Tests for carbon anomalies may be applied to search for hydrocarbons in the earth, and alterations in [Formula: see text] in the earth can be used to locate regions of subsurface gas flow. In a recent report we have observed both such anomalies over the Cement, Oklahoma oil and gas fields (Fleischer and Turner, 1984). Because of this result, whose generality is not yet known, it is of interest to know where other similar carbon and gas‐flow anomalies exist. (We should note that extensive examples of carbon anomalies in the soil have been presented; many of these are referenced in Fleischer and Turner, 1984.) This short note describes one such geochemical anomaly that has been observed using three methods of mapping—one radiometric, one isotopic, and one chemical. Testing whether this anomaly is associated with hydrocarbons is a logical next step that has not been taken.

Income approach based on the method of discounted cash flows (DCF) seems to be the main instrument to evaluate economic efficiency of investment projects when developing oil and gas fields. However, at early stages of exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbon resources, uncertainty and risks of investors are very high, which limits the use of traditional methods. It is necessary to develop valuation tools accounting high uncertainty of input data on the exploitation of oil and natural gas resources, flexibility of their development by formation of rational production strategy with volatility of the operating parameters such as the world oil prices and the size and value of oil and gas reserves. In this article presents the real options approach which accounts the potential of flexible and adaptive project management providing advantages in assessing development projects as compared to the traditional income methods. Implementation of this method is exemplified by the case of oil and gas fields in the east of the Siberian platform.

Significance Despite coal’s decline, overall US energy exports hit record levels in 2016 after years of strong domestic output growth and major investments in new infrastructure to link US oil and gas fields with international markets. US-produced refined fuel products, crude oil and natural gas liquids are shaking up energy trade routes and posing new challenges to established exporters in the Middle East and Russia. Impacts OPEC oil exporters will have to compete directly with US shale producers for market share in high-growth regions such as Asia. Major LNG exporters like Qatar and Australia are likely to see low global gas prices for many years as new US supply hits the market. Midstream companies will see strong growth opportunities reshaping US energy infrastructure for exports. Washington’s efforts to boost coal in other advanced economies’ energy mixes are unlikely to meet with success.

The article focuses on consideration of complex aerospace monitoring of aggregated territories. It is made to assess the processes took place in "lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere-magnetosphere" system when exploration of oil and gas fields. The research is based on the remote aerospace sounding's method. As a result of this research we have an access to the complex analysis of huge range of data. We have an opportunity to calculate a "convolution operation" in the systems of complex aerospace monitoring in order to identify the signs that can help to indicate the territory having oil and gas deposits. To sum up, the research reveals the correlation between the huge range of anomalies of the nature and the presence of oil and gas deposits in the earth on the basis of remote aerospace monitoring sounding method.

Many, if not all of the oil and gas fields under development, have leaking wells. There are a lot of so-called abandoned, ownerless wells. Subsoil users, by one way or another, make efforts to eliminate leakage in such wells. At the same time there are no universal and reliable techniques. The problem of well leakage is seriously increasing when wells are decommissioned (plugged and abandoned, P&A), and even more so when the development of the field is finished. The techniques of plugging and abandonment do not guarantee the integrity of the abandoned wells for centuries. Obviously, then the abandoned field would become the object of a local ecological catastrophe. As the development of all oil and gas fields is completed, the Earth will enter the era of the Global Environmental Disasters. In this article authors propose innovative techniques and technical solutions for sealing procedures and plugging and abandonment operations on wells.

In connection with the need to increase the energy resources of Ukraine, it is essential to expand the areas and depths of prospecting, as well as to improve the methodology and technology of oil and gas exploration. The most promising area for the search for new oil and gas fields in Ukraine remains the Pripyat-Dneprovsko-Donetsk oil and gas province. Increasing the depth of new energy sources because of the increasing cost of exploration and deep drilling requires more accurate and efficient predictions, which should be based on a more rigorous scientific substantiation of new directions of work and the application of new efficient technologies. The article develops the concept of deep degassing of the Earth, which is of great importance for the development of modern ideas about the formation and geological history of the Pripyat-Dnieper-Donetsk oil and gas province. The authors considered the nature of oil and gas accumulation areas and their relationship with the “pipes” of deep degassing of the Earth, as well as the possibilities of structural-tectonic, lithological-geochemical and remote sensing methods in identifying new oil and gas fields in the Pripyat-Dnieper-Donetsk oil and gas province and signs of their connection with «pipes» hydrocarbon deep degassing of the Earth. To implement new methodology and technology of prospecting, exploration of oil and gas fields, the article proposes to make wider use of the modern capabilities of satellite methods, which make it possible to quickly cover large areas with multiple surveys, increase the efficiency of solving geological problems, and also significantly reduce the cost of oil and gas exploration.

An hypothesis of the origin and accumulation of oil and gas fields, arrived at from the data of soil analysis, is presented. This hypothesis also offers an explanation of the quite different concentrations of subsurface waters in different geologic provinces. Furthermore, it seeks to explain the variation of type of accumulation with respect to depth below the surface and deformation of the sediments in which the accumulation occurs. Lastly, the value of the method of soil analysis as an exploration device is indicated.
