Abstract
In the early 1960s, the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug entered a new phase of its development.
As a result of the discovery of colossal oil fields, the region has become the country’s largest industrial complex for the extraction of hydrocarbons. A sharp change in the demographic structure of the population, the reorientation of the district’s economy to a new branch of the economy led to one of the most striking examples of urbanization in the Soviet Union. Surgut, which later became the largest oil center, was one of the first to feel the need to change the situation in landscaping. The government has faced the goal of creating a comfortable and pleasant settlement for living.
As a methodology, the study uses the concept of environmental history, which considers the process of interaction between man and nature in a historical context, and also uses the concept of «urban environment». The main source of the research is the activities of the settlement Council of the workers’ settlement of Surgut, studied in the R‑40 Fund (Executive Committee of the Surgut settlement Council of Workers’ Deputies, the workers’ settlement of Surgut of the Khanty-Mansiysk National Okrug of the Tyumen Region) of the Municipal Archive of the city of Surgut.
The conclusion is made about the weak involvement of citizens, employees of the oil and gas industry and representatives of local authorities in solving the issue of improvement of Surgut at the initial stage of industrial development.
