by Quaternary deposits of 8-12 m thickness and descending gently to the 

 sea. For exploratory drilhng it was necessary to obtain reconnaissance informa- 

 tion on the structure of this area.

Surveying by the loop method gave an accurate structure of the north- 

 western pericline of the Makhachkalinskian fold and determined the position 

 of the axis in the crestal part <^®). The nature of the connection of the south- 

 eastern periclinal nose of the fold with the raonoclinally dipping layers 

 which form the coastal plain was established. According to the data of the
