development and features of the formation of the sedimentary complex of the south of the Caspian sedimentary basin are presented. The complex geological structure of the region is mainly due to the influence of tectonic, volcanic and denudation processes on sedimentation. The introduction of terrigenous material deep into the sedimentary basin (Matken-Ushmolinsk, Biikzhal and South Embin zones) by paleorubic flows contributed to the emergence of accumulative shafts and interbranch uplifts composed mainly of clay rocks with alternating siltstone-sandstones. In the paleorusls themselves, coarser sediments were deposited – gravelites and sandstones. The reconstruction of the conditions of formation of sand bodies made it possible to predict their facies composition, morphology and identify patterns of spatial placement, and are also of great interest in the search for oil and gas deposits in deep-lying lithological traps. The prospects of these structures and their resource potential are evidenced by the world experience in identifying large deposits of hydrocarbon raw materials. This is a new highly promising direction of large accumulations of hydrocarbons for the Caspian Basin. The results of drilling deep wells conducted in recent years have made it possible to refine the internal structure, substantiate new facilities in the Late Paleozoic sedimentary complex, and reassess the prospects of oil and gas potential and forecast oil and gas resources of the south of the Caspian Basin.
