The book "Methodological recommendations for the use of seismic data for the calculation of oil and gas reserves" by Levant B . B. , Ampilova Yu. P. and others represents an important contribution to the field of geophysics and the oil and gas industry. This publication is aimed at specialists working in the field of hydrocarbon exploration and production, as well as undergraduate and graduate students studying geology and geophysics. The book discusses in detail the methods that allow the effective use of seismic data to estimate oil and gas reserves. The authors offer readers a holistic approach to the analysis of seismic data, which allows not only to improve the accuracy of calculations, but also to optimize the processes of exploration. In today's market, where every drop of oil and gas matters, such methodological recommendations become especially relevant. One of the key topics of the book is the integration of seismic data with other geophysical and geological methods. This makes it possible to create a more complete picture of the geological structure of the deposits and assess their potential. The authors emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, which includes not only seismic research, but also the analysis of geochemical, geological and hydrodynamic data. This approach allows to significantly increase the efficiency of work in the field of exploration and development of deposits .. The book will be of interest not only to professional geophysicists and geologists, but also to managers and analysts working in the oil and gas industry. It will help them better understand how seismic exploration can be used to make strategic decisions and optimize investment. Also, the publication can be useful for students and graduate students who seek to deepen their knowledge in the field of geophysics and oil and gas. The style of the authors is clear and accessible. They use many examples from practice, which makes the material more clear and understandable. The book is filled with illustrations, graphs, and diagrams that help visualize complex concepts and make reading more engaging. Levant B. B. and Ampilov Y. P. They have already established themselves as authors capable of conveying complex scientific ideas to a wide audience, and this publication was no exception. If you are looking for literature that will help you understand modern seismic methods and their application to estimate hydrocarbon reserves, then “Methodological recommendations for using seismic data to calculate oil and gas reserves” is exactly what you need. The book will become an indispensable assistant for both experienced specialists and beginners in this field. In conclusion, this publication is not only a collection of methodological recommendations, but also a real encyclopedia of knowledge that will help readers understand the intricacies of seismic exploration and its application in the oil and gas industry. Do not miss the opportunity to enrich your knowledge and improve your skills with this book, which will be an important step towards professional growth in the field of geophysics and oil and gas .
