The aim of research: an assessment of technogenic changes of components of the natural environment in the impact zone of petrocrafts. Research problems: revealing technogenic transformations to the natural environment in the zone of direct technogenic influences (DTI) and outside of it; an assessment of technogenic variability of geosystems; development of protection of an environment actions on decrease technogenic loadings. The results of researches: the estimation of a condition of components of the natural environment in the impact zone of petrocrafts for the first time carried out; modelling emergency flood of oil carried out.
Development of oil and gas fields is accompanied by emergency oil spills, which leads to unfavorable environmental situations manifested in groundwater pollution and, accordingly, the formation of lithochemical and hydrochemical pollution zones. In this regard, a rational network of groundwater monitoring in oilfield areas was developed for the purpose of timely detection of pollution, which allows minimizing the negative impact of oil and oil products on the hydrogeological environment.
