Purpose. Review and analysis of the most informative and advanced geophysical methods for studying natural and anthropogenic processes that affect the design and safe operation of pipeline transportation systems of Ukraine. Methodology. It is suggested to use a complex of geophysical studies for engineering surveys while designing and operating linear underground structures of Ukrainian pipelines. The use of conventional electrical methods of in conjunction with a new method of resonant acoustic profiling significantly increases informative value of the research. Findings. The analysis of traditional electrometric and new resonant acoustic geophysical methods of research is performed. There is shown a possibility of selecting the best sites for the construction and operation of pipeline transport systems. The effectiveness of integrated application of geophysical methods for substantiating protection measures of pipeline transportation systems from the impact of natural and anthropogenic processes is disclosed. Originality. For the first time it is demonstrated how to use the new geophysical method of resonant acoustic profiling in conjunction with a set of conventional electrical methods on such complex and demanding engineering structures as the pipeline transport system of Ukraine. Practical value. Using the method of resonant acoustic profiling to study the geological section, mapping of landslide areas, collapses, water cut areas, allocation of aquifers and zones of tectonic disturbances, detection of karst zones, and for examining the possible sites of leaks of liquid or gaseous filler through damage in pipelines. Identification of possible areas of corrosion on the pipeline transport systems with electrical methods - VES (vertical electric sounding), "Remote electrode", measurement of potential gradient and SEP (symmetrical electrical profiling).
