The paper deals with the basin analysis of Middle Caspian and evaluation of geological risks in mentioned area as well. Based on regional seismic-geological profile, well columns and geological data by cross-border areas, a chronostratigraphic chart has been developed and mega-sequences outlined. Geological risks for all stratigraphic units of Mesozoic and Cenozoic, as well as for each element of hydrocarbon system have been evaluated.
