Dynamics of reserves and production of hydrocarbons in the Ustyurt region
The article briefly outlines the results of exploration activity for oil and gas within the Ustyurt region of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Information is presented on the history of discoveries and development of fields in the Ustyurt region for the entire period of geological exploration activity for oil and gas, information on annual production, growth of hydrocarbon reserves and cumulative production for the entire period of development. The authors divided the entire period of geological exploration into 3 stages, in each of which the initial reserves and cumulative production are distributed over stratigraphic sections.
The article attempts to justify such a division based on the analysis and generalization of the state of the hydrocarbon resource base, the degree of its exploration and development.
As a result of summarizing the initial geological and geophysical information on individual accumulations of hydrocarbon, the authors performed a brief analysis of exploration activity and made proposals on the prospects for further increasing their resource potential with subsequent development, requiring the involvement of modern methods in the process.
It is concluded that in the Ustyurt region, in which in recent years, thanks to the initiatives of the heads of state, large-scale exploration activity has been launched, which allowed increasing hydrocarbon reserves almost annually, due to the discovery of new accumulations and exploration of previously identified sites, which was the basis for the development petroleum industry of the country.

Keywords: petroleum field, hydrocarbon reserves growth, hydrocarbon production, geological exploration activity, Ustyurt region, Republic of Uzbekistan.
