Evaluating geomorphologic conditions in the areas of gullies spreading represents an important step in the capitalization of land and spatial planning. The research was carried out in the Apold Depression (Southern Transylvania, Romania), a submontainous area of approximately 280 km2 characterized by homogeneous physical-geographical and anthropogenic conditions. Gullies (ravines) have been identified on an area of 33 km2 (11.79% of the depression). Morphometric assessment of the conditions of gullies spreading wa...

Authors examined particularities in shelf oil and gas production. Social-economic aspects have been revealed of consequences during underwater production and pipeline transportation of hydrocarbon crude. Volumes of losses from emergencies at pipelines and platforms were analyzed with differentiation of principal world shelf oil and gas production regions. Loss volumes were estimated for the North-Eastern European region with reference to components of hydrocarbon production and transportation systems. Methodical a...

The work given has been aimed at consideration of methodical approaches for the feasibility study of perspective in mineral deposits development, and based on it, preliminary ranking of criteria which should be applied relative to the Arctic solid mineral deposits. Authors used a formal logic method (analysis synthesis). It was revealed that both the domestic and foreign approaches cannot be applied directly for the feasibility studies of the Arctic solid mineral deposits because they consider the arctic condition...
