Abstract
The analysis of existing geochemical methods of search and prediction of hydrocarbon deposits is given. A critical analysis of existing methods of forecasting oil and gas fields, the recommendations sequence geochemical reference works was made. Specificity of the most effective technologies of the two organizations used today JSC “NPC Geokhimiia” (Russia) and “Petro Geokhim Service” (Germany) was defined. The possibility of modernizing and optimizing existing methods, reducing the cost of field work and analysis is shown. The mathematical apparatus used to create predictive maps on carbonaceous materials is considered. The high quality of the analytical data produced by “Petro Geokhim Service” was noted, which can serve as a reliable basis for mapping the forecast. Practical recommendations on the location of surface geochemical survey in the complex hydrocarbon exploration in general were given; the optimal network testing was proposed and the conclusion about the possibility of a significant reduction in the list of analyzed hydrocarbons was made.
