In order to replenish oil and gas reserves in the medium term and until the end of the century, it will be necessary to study new sediment complexes in promising regions of the country. One of these areas is the Kara Sea shelf, where large and giant gas condensate fields have already been discovered in the Cretaceous deposits, and the Pobeda field has been discovered on the eastern Prinovozemelsky shelf, with an oil deposit in the Lower-Middle Jurassic deposits and gas deposits in the Cretaceous. The article substantiates the prospects for the oil and gas potential of the Jurassic complex in the central part of the South Kara oil and gas region and the strategic need for geological exploration in the Jurassic and pre-Jurassic deposits of the region.
