The goal of the article was to analyze the mineral resource base of hydrocarbons of zones promising for the discovery of hydrocarbon deposits, located mainly on the periphery of the territory of the Khanty-Mansy Autonomous Okrug – Ugra. The second, no less important goal was to analyze the efficiency of exploration work in Ugra. Sites of subsurface resources were identified, for which an assessment of the resource base of pre-Jurassic formations and sedimentary cover was given. The most promising prospecting zones in terms of the state of reserves and resources are proposed for their inclusion in the licensing programs of the subsoil fund at the expense of all sources of funding. Information about the prospects for the preparation of «new» oil reserves through exploration drilling is given.
This work is the result of the authors’ own research, including a retrospective analysis of unpublished material and available material of the V.I. Shpilman Research and Analytical Centre for the Rational Use of the Subsoil and the Department of Subsurface Management & Natural Resources of Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra geological and on this topic for the history of discovery and development of subsoil West Siberian oil and gas province.
