Abstract :
The paper describes possible ways of interpreting a complex of geochemical anomalies used in prospecting for oil and connected with the analysis of gas survey. The use of fractal features of power spectra and gas diffusion peculiarities in the fractal medium has allowed constructing a linearized model of spatial hydrocarbon migration. The proposed procedure of the fractal analysis of geochemical data is tested on a number of practical examples.
