This publication shows the lithological and tectonic information on the Azov-Black Sea region, the Norwegian Sea, Gulf of Mexico, Taman purpose of showing the need for combining information obtained by various methods of research (geophysical, lithological, stratigraphic, geochemical, etc.) to highlight the main positive criteria search for oil and gas. To improve the resolution of problems in oil and gas geology and tectonic lithologic information may be supplemented by data obtained by remote sensing, used in world practice for detecting oil spills, gas outputs on the sea surface and others.
