Two-dimensional basin simulators (like PetroMod, TemisPack etc.) use 
as a framework both 2-D seismic interpretation results and digital images in 
other formats derived from widely used structural modeling software depicting 
paleo- and present-day sections. 
3-D modeling has a number of advantages. This can be especially useful 
when studying the effectiveness of different petroleum systems. If several 
hydrocarbon-forming intervals are involved in the basin through 3-D models 
complex synthesis of the processes and quantities can be conducted and 
quantitatively expressed [3]. 
Conclusion 
The estimation methods of undiscovered resources may be combined 
into three major directions: empiric, statistical and basin modelling methods. 
Traditional methods are comparatively simple; however, in their application 
subjective definition of parameter values is inevitable. Since selection of input 
parameters and reference areas is largely subjective process, personal 
visions of the experts heavily impact estimations. Accordingly, the range of 
uncertainty in prognosticated values are not always easily understood by 
others. There is a certain connection between the reliability degree of 
predictive estimation and uncertainty degree of input parameters. Particularly, 
this feature caused the occurrence of statistical methods realizing the 
definition of supposed boundaries of predictive estimation reliability. 
Software means of basin modeling can generate geological, geophysical 
and physical-chemical processes taking place in sedimentary series in the 
form of specific numbers and values. Innovative approach to their usage may 
provide a notable contribution to the solution of fundamental issues in oil and 
gas geology, exploration and survey of hydrocarbons as well. They may be
