The Caspian Sea differs from other seas by its physical-geographical and hydro-meteorological conditions. The research of wind, wave and stream parameters on oil-gas producing aquatory of the sea, especially in the zones of laying pipelines is of great importance. The wind, wave and stream parameters on aquatories of Baku archipelago were studied based on long-term field data and 1 and 5 % guaranteed wave parameters calculated.
