The presented research is devoted to study and establishment of the spatiotemporal change of tritium content in groundwater of CenomanianCallovian groundwater complex in Kyiv and the causes of these changes in order to identify water exchange features and hydraulic interaction between shallow and deep aquifers, as well as between groundwater and surface waters. Due to the excessive use of groundwater, depressive surfaces of hydrodynamic pressures have formed, aquifers are transforming from pressure head to pressureless, and there is a danger of downward filtration and contamination of potable groundwater. Also, one of the effects of these depressions formation is deterioration of water quality. However, to study the conditions of the qualitative composition formation of deep potable aquifers and to identify the causes of changes in groundwater status is a difficult and responsible task at the same time. Methods of isotopic hydrogeology are among the main scientific methods used to track the peculiarities of groundwater movement and assess their age. The new data obtained by isotopic methods help to control water resources and allow to make such decisions that will bring socio-economic benefits. The obtained data of tritium content in groundwater of Cenomanian-Callovian groundwater complex, clearly presented in the form of maps, allow to make informed decisions on sustainable resource management, and regular monitoring of chemical and isotopic composition of groundwater reveals mechanisms of recharge and sources of pollution, which were not taken into account before. The results obtained by the authors through statistical and spatial analysis of tritium content in groundwater during 2014-2017, indicate that currently within the territory of Kyiv there is a positive trend towards a slow gradual return of Cenomanian-Callovian groundwater complex to its natural state.

The article is devoted to a new direction of using the waters of the upper aquifers and open reservoirs for heat and cold supply of residential and public buildings and structures. The theoretical analysis of technologies of construction and features of use of natural accumulators of thermal energy in aquifers is carried out. The general schemes of construction of hydrothermal power systems of closed and open type are described. The hydrothermal experimental heat pump power system developed and constructed at the Institute of Renewable Energy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine consisting of a heat pump and two wells with a depth of 49.5 m and 57.5 m, through which water is pumped or pumped from the aquifer, is presented. The geomorphological, geological and hydrogeological conditions of the study site are analyzed. The peculiarities of the formation of groundwater reserves of the productive horizon are described. Further directions of hydrogeological observations have been determined. The efficiency of the hydrothermal heat pump energy system of the open type is scientifically substantiated. Research methods are described. The characteristics of the measuring equipment and the software which was used for archiving and visualization of the data received in the course of carrying out research work are resulted. The results of experimental researches are presented. A comparative analysis of the efficiency and investment attractiveness of the hydrothermal system of open and closed type, where low-potential thermal energy of water is used as a renewable primary source of thermal energy for the operation of the heat pump was carried out. It is established that the use of renewable low-potential ground energy for the operation of geothermal energy systems is widely used in environmentally safe and economically attractive energy systems. However, the use of hydropower potential in hydrothermal energy systems is not widely used, despite the high technical and economic performance. It is proved that the existing hydrothermal systems are not always adapted to the operating conditions and location of the facility. There is no method of designing open-type hydrothermal systems, methods of conducting preliminary hydrogeological studies of the area planned for the installation of these systems and methods of calculating the parameters of the storage medium. The data obtained during the study are of great scientific and applied importance in the design of hydrothermal energy heat pump systems. In addition, there are prospects for further research into the possibility and effectiveness of using the aquifer as a natural heat accumulator to stabilize the generation of energy from renewable sources, regardless of climatic conditions and time of year.

Groundwater is the most dynamic and vulnerable component of the geological environment, which in real-time responds to changes in natural and natural-anthropogenic factors and defines the emergence and intensification of the dangerous geological processes, particularly such as landslides, ground subsidence, flooding, etc. To assess the impact of various factors on the exogenous geological processes (EGPs) development and intensification, primarily the most fast-changing ones, in addition to meteorological conditions (precipitation amount and its seasonal distribution) hydrogeological conditions, and the most volatile indicator - groundwater level – are taken into account. Continuous territory monitoring requires numerous complex and diverse problem solutions, including reasonable and comprehensive forecasting of changes under the influence of physical, chemical, and biological factors based on modern information technologies. Given that National Kyiv-Pechersk Preserve territory has a complex relief with a height difference of 74.5 m from south to northeast in real terms, it is necessary to conduct constant monitoring and landslide prevention activities, carry out surface water drainage measures, replace water supply and disposal communications, and determine the impact of changes in groundwater regime on the territory to achieve the ultimate objective. This multifaceted process can be optimized by a geodatabase, the use, and maintenance of which will enable to focus on the study of the hydrogeological conditions, in particular the groundwater regime and the nature of aquifers changes.

Based on modern field and laboratory studies, the conditions for the accumulation of some rare and scattered elements in mud volcano breccias have been described in the article, using the example of the most characteristic mud volcanoes of Absheron and Gobustan. A typomorphic geochemical association with boron mineralization of rare and scattered elements in solid products of mud volcanic eruptions has been determined. It has been revealed that mud volcanism is a favorable factor for the accumulation of boron, lithium, cesium and strontium in mud volcano breccias in practically interesting values. The maximum values of these concentrations were noted in the fresh erupted mud volcano breccias with remnants of water-silty mud. Sample variance, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation are the most controlling parameters of the distribution functions of the studied elements in mud volcano breccias. According to the estimates of these parameters, it has been found that the mud volcanic new formations are rich in boron, lithium and cesium, while not being rich in rubidium. The established average values of the concentration of boron (0.216 kg/t), lithium (55 g/t), rubidium (132 g/t) and cesium (50 g/t) can be considered as the first quantitative parameters of the geochemical specialization of mud volcanic eruption products using the example of Absheron Peninsula and Gobustan. These parameters can be used to refine the so-called provincial clarkes of geochemical zoning, prediction of prospecting for boron and rare alkalic, and other problems.

Quantitative analysis of the relationship between surface and groundwater in the area adjacent to Lebedyne Lake (Sumy region) is presented. Preliminary studies do not explain the role and quantification of groundwater runoff in lake level fluctuations. The solution to the problem is proposed by the authors based on the calculation of water balance. The article presents the results of research of hydrogeological conditions of the territory near the lake and the results of quantitative assessment of the underground component of the water balance. It has been established that the level regime of Lebedyne Lake is determined by meteorological factors, terrain and conditions of interconnection of surface and groundwater (primarily groundwater). It was also found that groundwater in alluvial deposits in the area adjacent to the lake is separated from the aquifers below, a thick layer of waterproof rocks. Therefore, the existing long-term operation of the mentioned aquifers and complexes for the purpose of centralized water supply cannot be a direct cause of changes in the natural water balance of groundwater and lakes. Also, low anthropogenic pressure in the surrounding area cannot be considered a factor that significantly affects the natural water balance. Groundwater supply in the study area is due to infiltration of precipitation and the flow of surface water from the lake into the groundwater. Changing the water level in the lake very quickly leads to a change in the water level in the soil aquifer, and vice versa. According to calculations, the total loss from the lake to groundwater supply is about 207.1 m3 /day or 75600 m3 /year. The obtained results are the basis for scientific substantiation of designing a system of local monitoring of groundwater status in the area adjacent to Lebedyne Lake.

The Absheron-Prebalkhan tectonic zone, often called as the Absheron-Prebalkhan ridge, is a link between two large oil and gas basins of the world, which differ in the genetic level of the basement, i.e.: the South Caspian (SCB) and the Middle Caspian basins (MCB). The considered area has been completely covered by detailed seismic and gravity surveys over the past decades. The article presents material illustrating the information content of seismic sections in different parts of the region, which are characterized by different seismogeological conditions. As a result of the analysis of the latter, the author specified and determined four seismic horizons: SH-A (Akchagyl), SH-I (tops of RS), SH-II (horizon VIII) and SH-III (lower RS) based on the dynamic expressiveness, length, and resolution of the record. The tracking quality of these horizons is not the same. The identification of seismic intervals, which correspond to structural levels based on objectively determined seismic parameters, such as the configuration and relative position of reflections, their continuity, as well as the amplitude and frequency of seismic waves were the basis for seismic stratigraphic analysis of the wave field. The compiled schematic structural maps show the geological structure of the red-colored strata and Akchagyl deposits and the correlation of the structural plans of the latter clearly. Comparison of complex geological and geophysical materials allows to determine the character of the distribution of lithofacies features of RS deposits.

The area of the Pologivskiy deposit of kaolins and refractory clays is located on the border of two geological regions: the Azov crystalline massif and the Konksko-Yalynska depression. Precambrian crystalline rocks and sediments of the Cretaceous, Paleogene, Neogene, and Quaternary systems take part in the geological structure of the district. The geological structure of the district is based on the results of field exploration (23–25) and geological surveying works. Deposits of the Quaternary system are widespread in the territory and are similar to mantle on the underlying rocks. The lower border of the Quaternary system is formed at the base of the Berezanskiy climatolite in accordance with the Geological Map of Ukraine legend (the scale 1:200 000) of the 1996 Central Ukrainian series. The underlying rocks are red-brown Pliocene clays in most parts of the territory, in the rest there are rocks of crystalline basement of Cretaceous, Paleogene and Neogene systems. The thickness of the Quaternary deposits is 10–20 m. Deposits of the Novopetrivska Neogene suite are productive for the extraction of clays and kaolins, in the base of which the undivided deposits of the Upper Eocene (Kyivska suite) and Oligocene (Kharkivska suite) lie. These are coastal-marine deposits – marls, calcareous clays, siltstones, weakly cemented sandstones and glauconite quartz sands. The total thickness of the Kyivska and Kharkivska suites varies from 0,0 to 60–70 m. Clays and kaolins are characterized by almost the same mineral composition. Most of them are composed of fine-grained kaolinite, and quartz predominates among impurities. Accessory and ore minerals are represented by zircon, rutile, ilmenite and hematite. Quartz is present in clays and kaolins in the form of rolled, semirolled and unrolled grains. High-quality aluminosilicate products are obtained from the kaolins of the deposit. Pologivskiy kaolin can be used to make chamotte without the clay addition, as well as a binder. The ratio of chamotte and binder is 80–20 %. The refractories obtained in the laboratory meet the requirements of high density for Class A blast furnace bricks and other products of appropriate determination. Pologivskiy clays are recognized as suitable for the production of 100 % refractories, as well as a binder component instead of ChasovYarska clays. Products made entirely of semi-acid clay meet the requirements for semi-acid refractory products of class B. Pologivskiy kaolins and clays have long been used in refractory, machine-building, ceramic, cement and other industries.

The geological structure of the district is based on the results of field exploration (23–25) and geological surveying works. Deposits of the Quaternary system are widespread in the territory and are similar to mantle on the underlying rocks. The lower border of the Quaternary system is formed at the base of the Berezanskiy climatolite in accordance with the Geological Map of Ukraine legend (the scale 1:200 000) of the 1996 Central Ukrainian series. The underlying rocks are red-brown Pliocene clays in most parts of the territory, in the rest there are rocks of crystalline basement of Cretaceous, Paleogene and Neogene systems. The thickness of the Quaternary deposits is 10–20 m. Deposits of the Novopetrivska Neogene suite are productive for the extraction of clays and kaolins, in the base of which the undivided deposits of the Upper Eocene (Kyivska suite) and Oligocene (Kharkivska suite) lie. These are coastal-marine deposits – marls, calcareous clays, siltstones, weakly cemented sandstones and glauconite quartz sands. The total thickness of the Kyivska and Kharkivska suites varies from 0,0 to 60–70 m. Clays and kaolins are characterized by almost the same mineral composition. Most of them are composed of fine-grained kaolinite, and quartz predominates among impurities. Accessory and ore minerals are represented by zircon, rutile, ilmenite and hematite. Quartz is present in clays and kaolins in the form of rolled, semirolled and unrolled grains. High-quality aluminosilicate products are obtained from the kaolins of the deposit. Pologivskiy kaolin can be used to make chamotte without the clay addition, as well as a binder. The ratio of chamotte and binder is 80–20 %. The refractories obtained in the laboratory meet the requirements of high density for Class A blast furnace bricks and other products of appropriate determination. Pologivskiy clays are recognized as suitable for the production of 100 % refractories, as well as a binder component instead of ChasovYarska clays. Products made entirely of semi-acid clay meet the requirements for semi-acid refractory products of class B. Pologivskiy kaolins and clays have long been used in refractory, machine-building, ceramic, cement and other industries.","PeriodicalId":42798,"journal":{"name":"Visnyk of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv-Geology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78455317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study is to investigate and analyze the reservoir properties of the Lower Pliocene sediments of the Baku Archipelago Umid area and its oil and gas potential. One of the latest studies in the Umid area was geological assessment of reservoir parameters for calculation of hydrocarbon reserves. The earlier obtained results made it possible to more reliably calculate hydrocarbon reserves and plan prospecting and exploration works in the right direction. Large gas condensate reserves were identified in 2009 in horizons V and VII of the Productive Series (PS). Thus, well 10 produced 1.2 million m3/day of gas and 150 tons of condensate from the depth interval of 6340-6356m. Considering that hydrocarbon fields of the South Caspian depression (SCD) are, as a rule, multilayered, this is a reason to predict presence of hydrocarbon accumulations in deeper strata as well. Variation patterns of reservoir properties, such as grain composition, carbonate content, porosity, permeability, density, propagation velocity of ultrasound waves in rocks were not comprehensively investigated in the previously conducted studies. The article studies impact of the structural and tectonic properties of the Umid uplift of the SCD Baku archipelago upon formation of a mud volcano on the southeastern periclinal subsidence. Taking into account impact of compressional stresses on the position of the fold vault and the crater of the mud volcano in connection with the syndepositional development of the uplift, a recommendation on the location of prospecting wells to deeper horizons is substantiated. Formation of reservoir properties of rocks is a function of tectonic stresses arising in them. Occurrence of secondary reservoir properties in rocks is highly probable in tectonically active zones. There is a stable inverse relationship between reservoir properties, carbonate and clay content, and a direct one - with the degree of grain sorting that make up the rocks. The issues considered in the article indicate a high probability of presence of hydrocarbon accumulations here in deeper horizons of the sedimentary section. In the future, based on our studies and geological and geophysical methods, it will be possible to thoroughly assess the prospects of deep-lying stratigraphic units of this area, and those identical to it.

The study aims at analyzing the petrographic composition of exotic metamorphic schist clasts in the Oligocene deposits filling the Silesian Nappe in the south-western part of the Ukrainian Carpathians and reconstructing their possible source area. The methodology includes petrographic, sedimentological and comparative geological methods. To achieve this goal, field research was carried out along the first right tributary of the Hysnyi Stream (the village of Uzhok, Velykobereznyanskyi district, Transcarpathian region) and petrographic analysis of the selected samples of the exotic metamorphic schist clasts included in the Oligocene debris-flow deposits was performed. The results of microscopic studies showed that these exotic rocks are represented by mica-quartz schist and garnet-muscovitebiotite-plagioclase-quartz schist with a low content of chlorite, carbonate and epidote. Mineral composition and structure/texture features suggest the rocks were metamorphosed under green schist and epidote-amphibolite facies. Similar exotic rock fragments were identified by Polish scientists in the south-eastern part of the Polish Carpathians in the Silesian Nappe, where possible source area of the exotic rocks is related to the Bukowiec Paleo-Ridge, which had been located between the Dukla and Silesian basins of the Carpathian sedimentary realm. Scientific novelty. For the first time, the petrographic composition and textural and structural features of the exotic schists fragments included in the Oligocene deposits of the Silesian Nappe in the Ukrainian Carpathians (area of the village of Uzhok, Ukrainian Carpathians) are described. These schists are similar to the exotic rocks included in the Oligocene deposits of the Silesian Nappe in the Polish Carpathians, which may indicate the same source area.
