We present the interpretation of 2D seismic data in the Vilyui hemisyneclise located in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The model identifies structural and tectonic features and tectonic development history of the Mesozoic deposits in the Vilyui hemisyneclise. Structure contour maps for the reflecting horizons of the Mesozoic are qualitatively the same. Traced faults attenuate at various stratigraphic levels. The structures of the hemisyneclise are known to be formed during the Cretaceous stage of development.

For the study of the first ten meters of the ground, instruments operating in the frequency domain are most widely used. The compactness, speed of operation, ease of operation of such equipment, as well as the quality of the information obtained, determine its applicability for solving a wide range of issues: from searching for local objects to identifying structural features of the upper part of the section. The article provides an overview of current hardware and software developments for near surface electromagnetic soundings in the frequency domain. A description of all types of non-contact equipment from major world manufacturers is given. The features of both the hardware itself and the approaches to their implementation are described. Methods of primary processing and data inversion are considered. Conclusions are drawn about the need to find new ways to eliminate of equipment deficiencies.

Whereas the defined velocity model plays a key role in the process of seismic events localization, so selection of the model as much as possible corresponding to the real velocity conditions of the investigated area becomes a crucial task. Basing on the analyses of published results of the Lake Baikal area seismic study a layered P-waves models for two situations defined: For the high velocity consolidated rock on the lake banks and low velocity sediments up to 10 km thick under the lake bottom.

The structure and seismogeological characteristics of the Achimov strata of the Gydan Peninsula are considered. Geological and geophysical criteria for the regional forecast of oil and gas potential, taking into account the clinoform structure of the Berriasian-Lower Aptian deposits, are proposed. Based on the interpretation of drilling data and 2D seismic exploration, predictive maps of the thickness of sand bodies were constructed, depocenters of accumulation of sandy material were mapped. Seismostratigraphic studies, which are based on a comprehensive analysis of the wave pattern of time seismic sections, dynamic and seismic facies analyzes, as well as paleotectonic and paleogeomorphological reconstructions, made it possible to identify the Salmanovskaya and Yuzhno-Gydanskaya oil and gas zones in the Achimov strata of the Gydan Peninsula.

At present due to depletion of reserves in the majority of Western Siberia oil and gas fields, with reservoirs mainly related to lower Cretaceous and Jurassic section interval, the basement intervals present primary scientific and practical interest for prospecting and exploration. At the Bystrovka vibroseismic test site (Novosibirsk region), the Paleozoic basement occurs at depth of about 10 m. This allowed investigating its elastic properties with shallow seismic technique using VSP. Results of these investigations are presented in the present paper.

The directions of horizontal displacement along active geological faults in Central Asia are determined based on data on the mechanisms of earthquake foci that occurred near these faults. The results were compared with geologic materials. In eight cases out of ten, the analysis of calculating the direction of displacement obtained from seismological materials is consistent with the kinematics of faults.

Using experimental data obtained from the network of stations installed on Kambalny volcano in the period from July 2018 to July 2019, a set of correlation functions was obtained and its preliminary interpretation was carried out. Works aimed at quality control of the obtained cross-correlation functions have been performed. We have identified considerable variations of the frequency-amplitude characteristics of the cross-correlation functions at small times, as well as significant shifts of the derived phases in large correlation times. Such variations of the cross-correlation patterns may indicate the existence of distinct time periods with different types of seismicity, as well as strong variations of mechanical properties of rocks. In turn, this might be an evidence for the ongoing activity of the magmatic system beneath the Kambalny volcano.

The paper considers an algorithm for calculating reflection coefficients from boundary between two HTI media. Analysis of the presence of anisotropy above and below the target boundary, as well as variations in the parameters of HTI media, was done. Interpretation of reflection data from the boundary between two HTI media with neglect of anisotropy above or below potentially leads to significant errors in estimation of symmetry axes directions, and hence fracturing orientation. Overestimation/underestimation of an elastic parameter in the overlying HTI medium could lead to a corresponding overestimation/underestimation of similar parameter in the underlying target layer in the result of AVAZ inversion. Furthermore, among the anisotropy parameters Thomsen parameter γ has most significant influence on the reflection coefficients dependences. Thus, the parameter γ could be used foremost as a result of the AVAZ inversion.
