Currently at the territory of the Udmurt Republic there is a depletion of previously discovered large oil fields. The increase in oil reserves is many times behind production. This problem can be solved by the introduction of oil fields with reserves of up to 300 thousand tons of oil. However the classical methods of prospecting, exploration and development makes identification and exploitation of these deposits economically not cost-effective. This problem can be solved by using the technology of acoustic low-frequency exploration at the search and evaluation and exploration stages of exploration. The forecasting scheme of hydrocarbon potencial of Debesskoe, Vostochno-Tylovaiskoe fields, as well as Staroaleiskaya and Marinskaya structures, studied by this method, has been shown. Advantages of application of technology of acoustic low-frequency investigation at carrying out the prospecting and exploration works on oil in the Udmurt Republic have been presented. The most promising geological structures to predict oil deposits by means of acoustic low frequency exploration in the territory of the Udmurt Republic have been suggested.
