Annotation:

The paper presents the results of Monte Carlo modeling when interpreting low-frequency seismic sounding data. The Monte Carlo method makes it possible to determine and contour a hydrocarbon reservoir based on the spectral characteristics of the detected low-frequency anomalies. The complete calculation algorithm is implemented in the Python programming language using free libraries. The method of deposits contouring can be widely used in the oil industry at different stages of geological exploration and at existing fields.
