Shared Research Facilities "Petrophysics, Geomechanics and Paleomagnetism", created based on actively developing divisions of the Schmidt Institute of Physics of the Earth RAS, has advanced research equipment and unique methods, which determines the possibility of solving a wide range of applied and fundamental problems in Earth sciences. The main activities of the Shared Research Facilities "Petrophysics, Geomechanics and Paleomagnetism" are in the field of geomechanical modelling and petrophysics, paleomagnetism, rock magnetism and applied analytical studies of the composition and structure of minerals, rocks and materials. The research results carried out at the Center are used to solve actual problems of prospecting and exploration of oil and gas basins, mineral deposits, tectonics, global geodynamics and tectonophysics. The article presents the scientific equipment of the Center and its key characteristics, describes the methodological and analytical capabilities, and the most significant results of research groups.
