Learning outcomes
Analyze the features of natural and anthropogenic systems and objects of the Earth's geosphere. Model geospheric objects and processes, using cartographic and mathematical methods and geoinformation technologies. To know modern methods of research of the Earth and its geospheres and to be able to apply them in production and research activities. Demonstrate the ability to adapt and act in a new situation related to work in the specialty, the ability to generate new ideas in the field of Earth sciences. To be able to communicate with specialists and experts of various levels in other fields of knowledge, including in an international context, in a global information environment.
Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Successful mastering of geological cycle courses: "Structural geology", "Stratigraphy", "Fundamentals of geophysics". 2. Successful completion of the course "Modelling of mineral deposits" or comparable experience in working with systems of three-dimensional modeling of deposits mineral resources. 3. To have basic skills of working with electronic spreadsheets, geo-information systems.
Course content
Familiarization with the basics of modeling the history of the development of sedimentary basins on the Schlumberger PetroMod device is taking place. Students acquire practical skills in building models of oil and gas generation potential, interpreting a large volume of geophysical and geological data, and building a structural model of the territory. As a result of the course, the student acquires the competence to build and defend an uncontroversial geological-geophysical model of the history of the development of a sedimentary basin and to assess the potential of its oil and gas potential.

Assessment methods and criteria
Control is carried out according to the modular rating system and involves: implementation of a practical semester project (where students have demonstrate the quality of acquired knowledge and solve the tasks using the methods and tools outlined by the teacher) and carrying out 2 written modular control works. Final assessment is conducted in written form exam
