Currently the super-viscous oil deposits are under active development in the Republic of Tatarstan. The general method of production is Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD). The problem of creation the complex of methods to monitor and control the reservoir processes caused by steam injection is of a great importance for increasing the development efficiency. Traditional control methods of shallow deposits development are normally based on seismic survey and whether insufficiently adatped for shallow deposits of super-viscous oil or very expensive. Thus, the special modifications of geophysical methods are required. The paper discusses general approaches used for creation of complex of methods for steam chamber monitoring the oil production from the shallow deposits of super-viscous oil by SAGD. The methods developed include seismic and geoelectric survey. In context of integrated monitoring technique creation the set of special core survey was conducted to define the possibility of detection of the steam chamber distribution by seismic methods. The distinguishing feature of the monitoring technology developed is the use of downhole monitoring tools to receive the seismic signal and to perform the geoelectrical field establishing. The article contains the description of the seismic data obtained processing methods and the results of the seismic data interpretation. The study was made with the financial support of Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation (project № №02.G25.31.0170)
