ACTIVE WATEREXCHANGE ZONES AND THEIR PETROLEUM POTENTIAL IN THE WESTERN SLOPE OF CANADIAN SHIELD 
In the Canadian shield western slope, there are giant oil and gas fields which reserves are equal to 12 902 billion m3 of natural gas and 695 billion m3 of heavy oil at the depth of 0—6000 m in the Mesozoic and Paleozoic beds as well as Precambrian granites under the active waterexchange conditions there. 
Keywords: oil, gas, reserves, monocline, Precambrian, active waterexchange.
