Abstract
Middle Jurassic deposits within the limits of synclinal depressions of southeast part of Khizi tectonic zone have plunged into MOPH at the beginning of Valanginian stage, and were there up to the end of the Cretaceous period. From the beginning Paleogene up to present time they were in MGPH, where was generation only gaseous HC. In the most subsidence parts of a syncline zones in MOPH was a lower part lower Cretaceous deposits. Oil and gas pools of Mesozoic deposits were formed due to migration HC both in lateral, and in vertical directions. Optimum conditions for formation and preservations of these pools exist within the limits of near arch parts NE and under thrust parts of SW wings of folds in the SE parts Khizi tectonic zone.
