Abstract

A map of deep heat flow of West Siberia has been compiled on the basis of over 6000 heat flow determinations, and the present temperature field has been analyzed in terms of the role of various factors forming the geothermal regime.
Analysis of local temperature fields in the vicinity of 340 hydrocarbon pools shows that almost 80% of them are associated with considerable heat flow variations, of which some are positive anomalies.
