PROBLEMS OF OIL AND GAS POTENTIAL OF CHERNYSHEV RIDGE
According to the author's opinion, in conditions of high exploration maturity of Timano-Pechora province, the Chernyshev ridge is related to weakly studied area. Here period of non-effective exploration activity is extending for many years. To increase efficiency of exploration activity it is necessary to select sites characterized by more high tendency of subsidence in Paleozoic, for example Khosedayusky swell, to reveal areas to a lesser extent subjected to inversion, less disintegrated by dislocation faults and screened by Triassic-Jurassic deposits as well to elaborate evaluation procedures of oil and gas pools preservation.
