Abstract
Joint research Russian-Finnish expeditions have been carried out to eastern Pechora Sea, in order to investigate the setting of Pleistocene-Holocene sediments and to locate areas with hazardous shallow permafrost and accumulation of free gas. In the obtained seismo-acoustic data, there are reflective events from deep Mesozoic horizons to shallow Holocene layers with signs on shallow gas and permafrost. The stratigraphy iscontrolIed by penetration testing and core sampling. Samples are analyzed for their physical, mechanical, and chemical properties according to both Russian and Western methods and classification charts. Furthermore, the main differences between these GOST and ASTM standards are demonstrated.
