The largest enterprise in Russia with long-term experience in specialized work in the Arctic and subarctic regions of Western Siberia. With the participation of YAGV, many oil and gas condensate fields were discovered in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District.

Founded in 1968 after the privatization of the state geological enterprise for geophysical work.

Seismic exploration using 2D and 3D technology on land and in the transit zone using the following types of sources:

• · explosive;
• · vibration;
• · pulse;
• · pneumatic.

Related research methods:

• · vertical seismic profiling (VSP);
• · study of the upper part of the section (UPS) and low velocity zones (LVZ) by microseismic logging (MSL) and refraction wave method (RWM);
• · magnetic exploration, electrical exploration, gravity exploration;
• · airborne laser scanning (ALS).

Using highly productive systems:

• · Flip-Flop —elastic vibrations are excited by signal sources alternately;
• · Slip-Sweep —signal sources operate simultaneously;
• · wireless seismic exploration — Seismic data are collected and recorded via radio or stored on memory devices inside the blocks and then read via Wi-Fi or when collecting all recording blocks of the NODE type.

Data quality control.
