PROBLEMS OF ECOLOGY OIL AND GAS SOUTHERN URALS REGION ^{[№ 12 ' 2011]}
In the Southern Urals operates Europe's largest oil and gas field Orenburg, and many other oil fields. Meeting the challenges of monitoring and forecasting of geodynamic processes in the areas of oil and gas production possible on the basis of the developed by the Division of Environmental Geoscience Orenburg Research Center of UrD RAS integrated approach for monitoring of geodynamic processes and earthquake activity. A lot of the epicenters of registered events recorded along the fault zones, indicating that these regions of high seismicity, caused by technogenic seismicity is observed. On October 1, 2010 seismic network, "Gas-seismic" start record seismic events — explosions in the vicinity of the landfill Donguzsk Defense Ministry. Blasts increase the natural seismic activity in conjunction with the negative consequences of hydrocarbons, which leads to destabilization of the geodynamics of the upper crust and its water system.
