IN REGARD TO A METHOD OF REVEALING DEEP STRUCTURES ANOMALIES IN A GRAVITY FIELD (BY INSTANCE OF THE UKRAINIAN CARPATHIANS)

Anikeyev S.G.

In gravity prospecting the forecast of deep structures, having good prospects for oil and gas, is carried out mainly by revealing actual anomalies in an observation gravity field. Actual anomalies are allocated, as a rule, with the help of linear transformations of a potential field. “Residual of averaging” transformation is suggested to apply in order to reveal deep structures anomalies.  In this work the deep and frequent characteristics of the “residual of averaging” are determined. These characteristics allow to estimate a connection between parameters of transformation and depth of geological structures. Also examples of using the “residual of averaging” at tectonic regional of the Ukrainian Carpathians are given.
