SNIIGGIMS AS THE INITIATOR OF SETTING-UP AN OIL-PROSPECTING ELECTRIC EXPLORATION OF NEAR-FIELD TIME-DOMAIN ELECTROMAGNETIC SOUNDING ON THE SIBERIAN PLATFORM (HISTORICAL INSIGHT)

A. K. Zakharkin

Tsikl Geom, Novosibirsk, Russia

The article is devoted to the origin history and development of electric exploration of NFTDES (near-field time-domain electromagnetic sounding) in Siberia. The described historical insight covers the period from the mid-sixties to the mid-nineties of the last century – the period of origin, flourishing and extinction (thank God, temporary), associated with the well-known “reconstruction of our lives”. The main attention is paid to the description of events that took place within the framework of the oil exploration direction, in the midst of which the author was lucky enough to work all this time. Using the traditional terminology of 2020, this was the beginning of the “first wave” of formation and development of the Siberian school of electric exploration, the core of which was the “tandem” of electric explorers of SNIIGGiMS and IGiG SB AS USSR.

Keywords: electric exploration of NFTDES, Siberian Platform, SNIIGGiMS, IPGG SB AS USSR.
