How to produce hard-to-recover oil, to optimise the development of giant fields and train modern specialists? These and other questions were discussed by the participants of the congress, one of the main platforms of the VII International Youth Scientific and Practical Forum "Oil Capital", which ended the day before in Khanty-Mansiysk.
"This is a big and important event for Yugra. Representatives of oil companies, education system, science from all over Russia participate in the congress", - said the moderator of the plenary session, head of the Higher Oil School of Yugra State University Maksim Korolev.
The plenary session and round tables of the international congress are traditionally devoted to the consideration of the problems of modern technologies of production, preparation and processing of hydrocarbon raw materials in the complicated conditions of field development, taking into account the increased requirements to environmental safety. An important modern challenge to the sustainable development of the Russian fuel and energy complex is technological and energy independence of the Far North and Arctic regions. The Congress opened with a plenary session, where the ways to Russia's technological sovereignty were discussed.
Addressing the congress participants and students of Yugra State University, Rector of the University Roman Kuchin emphasised that Yugra and the entire educational community provide the maximum opportunity to implement the ambitions of young researchers and innovators.
"A very powerful technological load sets new questions related to safety, ecology. Yugra and Yugra State University are the frontrunners in this area. For the third year our okrug has been implementing a regional project to create the "Carbon Data Centre", where Yugra State University, university partners, research organisations, industrial partners also take an active part. Two districts of Yugra have received the status of arctic districts. This is also new prospects for the development of our region, new challenges that you, the young generation, will face. Our strength lies in unity. We need to unite to solve important strategic issues for the Russian Federation, to create and preserve the technological sovereignty of the country. It is all in your hands," noted Roman Kuchin, Rector of YuSU.
The speakers of the congress are world-class experts in the field of nature management and energy, heads of the leading oil universities of Russia, leading researchers. Scientists from Ukhta State Technical University, St. Petersburg Mining University of Empress Catherine II, V.I. Shpilman Scientific and Analytical Centre for Rational Subsoil Use, and the Russian Academy of Sciences presented their reports. V.I. Shpilman, Samara State Technical University, Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University, LLC "PETROGECO", Lomonosov Northern (Arctic) Federal University, L.N. Gumilev Eurasian National University (Astana, Republic of Kazakhstan), as well as Zhejiang International Maritime Vocational Technical College (China).
The research results presented by the congress participants were of the widest scope - from the prospect of developing hard-to-recover oil reserves in Yugra, optimising the development of giant fields at a late stage to maintaining hydrocarbon production levels in accordance with the Energy Strategy of Russia for the period up to 2035. The topic of modern personnel training was raised.
"We fully support the format according to which a modern engineer should have completely different competences than 5-7 years ago. From this year our students will have the opportunity to choose from free additional professional competences, retraining and several working professions within the educational process," Maxim Korolev noted.
The round table "GIS tools in solving problems of the oil and gas sector" was also held, where such topics as space monitoring of forest felling with the use of GIS technologies and neural networks, the use of GIS for monitoring environmental pollution in the territories of traditional nature management of indigenous peoples, analysis of domestic and free software used in the oil and gas sector and what GIS is better to use when using UAVs were discussed. Scientists from the Ammosov North-Eastern Federal University, Tyumen Industrial University, Institute of Petroleum Chemistry of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Samara State Technical University, Kazan (Privolzhsky) Federal University, UNIIT shared their research. The round table was attended by Tatiana Antyufeeva, Head of the Higher Ecological School of YuSU, Alexander Zaikin, Associate Professor of the Higher School of Ecology, and Daria Bibikova, a specialist of the Higher School of Ecology.
Two round tables were held at YuSU. The first of them was devoted to clean and affordable energy for the Arctic and Far North regions. It was moderated by Vladimir Kovalev and Alexander Shepelev, professor and associate professor of the Polytechnic School of YuSU. Representatives of Nizhnevartovsk State University, Toraigyrov University (Pavlodar, the Republic of Kazakhstan), JSC "YURESK" and YSU presented their reports at the round table. Dmitry Osipov, Head of the Polytechnic School, also presented a report on monitoring of power quality indicators. And Alexander Shepelev, Associate Professor of the Higher School, spoke about models and methods of analysing the permissible modes of electrical systems taking into account thermal processes in current-carrying parts. As the speaker noted, this topic is relevant and is of special interest for Yugra, because the ambient temperature in the region is quite low.
They also discussed forecasting of electric energy consumption, modern digital tools for advanced training of engineering personnel in the energy sector, as well as international cooperation between the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan in this field, and more. Students of the Polytechnic School of YuSU were also familiarised with the reports.
Another round table was devoted to topical solutions in the field of production, preparation and transport of hard-to-recover hydrocarbon reserves. It was moderated by Dmitry Korneev, Associate Professor at the Higher Oil School of YuSU.
"It is no secret for most of you that hard-to-recover hydrocarbon reserves are one of the topical topics in oil production. And TRIZ is most likely the future. There are a lot of them, and especially against the background of declining reserves of relatively 'light' oil, this area is becoming the most significant," the moderator noted.
Here the researchers presented innovative technologies to intensify field development and increase oil recovery, improve well productivity, as well as their vision of how to make science at universities even more useful for the real economy. The results of their research were shared by scientists from the Lomonosov Moscow State Academy of Sciences, Samara State Technical University, Tyumen Industrial University, Institute of Petroleum Chemistry of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University. Professor of the Higher Oil School Lyubov Klemenko and senior lecturer of the Higher Oil School Evgeny Osnitsky and students of the Higher Oil School were also familiarised with the reports.
