The article describes the influence of gas bubbles released during the underground dis-solution of rock salt during the construction of underground tanks for storage of petroleum products on drilling, oil borehole drilling, operation of tanks, and acceleration of the construction of underground tanks in rock salt with a significant gas content. It is revealed that complex use of oil and salt layers of the oil field allows to obtain a mineralized solution to intensify the extraction of oil from the reservoir and to create an underground reservoir in the salt reservoir for underground storage of associated petroleum gas (APG), i.e. to create an underground gas storage (UGS) in rock salt.
