Abstract

The physical conditions encountered by Russian industries, such as the oil and gas, in areas such as the Black Sea and the Okhotsk Sea are considered. Microseismicity and earthquakes are important for oil pipelines and cables. The results of the research of Russian workers is described. Marine sediments and sedimentation processes are also considered. The authors propose seafloor processes be monitored by special system of ocean bottom seismic (geoecological) monitoring in which OBSs and tiltmeters can fix the beginning of sediment sliding
