Geological investigation and the researches of petroleum in territory of our country were intensively developed in 1940 years. Since 1960 years, the research stopped for 30 years and the new stage of rise of development began since 1990. Our country in difficult economic conditions supports the foreign investment in geological investigation of our petroleum and conclusion of a bilateral sharing of production. Today, is revealed as a whole 220,000 km2 of oil area, which is divided into 24 platforms. As the most perspective areas our experts consider deposits Tamsagbulag and ZuunBayan. On accounts of the USA scientists and experts the effective resource of petroleum of our country from 95 % by probability is estimated in 350 million barrels, from which the deposit Tamsagbulag is estimated in 50-60 million barrels. However, it is necessary to note that for today we have only assumptions in an estimation of the sizes of our petroleum resource. In the future before us there is a purpose of intensive study of a large deposit of petroleum in territory of our country, as exact resources of deposits of the Mongolian petroleum till now are not determined.
