Oil Production Technology

Increasing energy efficiency is included in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to be achieved by the year 2030. Enhancing energy efficiency is also one of the priority areas for improving the operational efficiency of any oil production enterprise. The energy management system of enterprises has been founded and implemented on the basis of the international standard ISO 50001:2018 and it works successfully. The energy efficiency strategy is formulated in the energy policy and integrated into the business model of the companies. Companies receive significant energy savings in the exploration and production segments through technical, technological, and organizational measures. This article shows the main directions for improving the energy efficiency of the artificial lift well stock and the results of their implementation. The main constraints on the implementation of the energy efficiency policy of oil-producing enterprises have been identified and directions for improvement of energy-saving structure have been proposed. The article proposes strategic-level classification of energy-saving measures, which is based on assessment and comparison of implementation costs, payback period, and takes into account investments into artificial lift technology, therefore allowing investment priorities in the energy management sphere to be distinguished. Advanced directions for investment in oil-production technology have been identified, and an algorithm of development and implementation of key indicators of energy consumption efficiency has been proposed.

Innovative Capacity

Few small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have undertaken an energy audit to date and even fewer have taken action to implement energy-saving measures. Lack of time, knowledge, and finance, coupled with the low priority that SMEs give to energy management, are the most commonly cited barriers to effective energy management in SMEs. Four projects funded by Horizon 2020 (SPEEDIER, SMEmPower Efficiency, E2DRIVER, and Innoveas) have developed innovative capacity-building programmes designed to eliminate these barriers and encourage SMEs to undertake energy audits and implement the recommended energy efficiency measures. This paper presents an overview of the innovations being tested and suggests a series of policy recommendations that could help to drive uptake of energy audits in SMEs.

The Impact

Energy efficiency improvement in industrial companies is an essential prerequisite for the enhancement of their competitive positions in the national and global markets. Yet, the approaches currently employed in respect of the energy management do not fully utilize the innovative potential of energy technologies to achieve strategic goals. One way to further develop energy management is theoretical justification of the use of new approaches based on the suggested concept of the energy saving and energy efficiency processes’ positioning in the system of a company’s management priorities. In this article, we consider the applied use of the developed conceptual approach from the perspective of the energy saving and energy efficiency program development at the company. The main purpose of this paper is to justify the relations between energy management and strategic decision making in industrial companies. The results of the research conducted, firstly, make a certain contribution into the research of strategic multiple benefits of energy efficiency in a company; secondly, they expand understanding of the impact of energy saving and energy efficiency improvement on the achievement of operational, tactical and strategic results of the company’s activities; thirdly, they provide methodological decision support for the development of energy saving and energy efficiency programs taking into account the management and organizational barriers.

Energy Efficiency Improvement

AbstractDirective (EU) 2018/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Directive 2012/27/EU on energy efficiency sets a target of 32.5 % energy efficiency to be achieved by 2030, with a possible upward revision in 2023. The directive also stipulates that the obligation to achieve annual energy savings must continue to be met after 2020. In addition, a revised directive on the energy performance of buildings was adopted in May 2018. It includes measures to speed up the renovation of buildings and the transition to more energy-efficient systems, as well as to improve the energy efficiency of new buildings, thus using smart energy management systems [1].Buildings consume the most energy and have the greatest energy saving potential. They are therefore crucial to achieving the European Union’s energy saving targets. The EU allocated around 14 billion EUR to improve the energy efficiency of buildings in the period of 2014–2020, of which 4.6 billion EUR was intended for residential buildings. In addition, the Member States have earmarked 5.4 billion EUR of public co-financing for the improvement of all types of buildings, of which around 2 billion EUR is allocated to residential buildings.Multi-apartment residential buildings in Latvia are in a technically unsatisfactory condition. In Latvia, the service life of multi-apartment residential buildings has been artificially extended. In addition, there is also the problem of reduced construction quality. Housing problems affect all layers of society, but they are most acute for low- and middle-income people.The aim of the research is to study, using the co-financing of the European Union Structural Funds, the activities performed during the renovation process of multi-apartment residential buildings in Latvia and to identify the shortcomings.

It is established that there exists a significant possibility for energy savings, on the basis of application of induction motors with YY/D connection change proposed in this paper, especially for power to 30 kW. In connection D (0.866Un), total losses and reactive loads are reduced to loads up to 75-85%. Benefits of such motors would be significant because more than 80% induction motors are light loaded (mean value ? 70%). In such manner one motor with two characteristics is attained, but that is better than to offer to the market two different motors, because only in exploitation it is possible to accurately select the one which is working with greater efficiency values in given conditions. However, at the motor with YY/D winding it is always possible, by selection of corresponding connection for (mean value) load measured in operation. Even, with connection change it is possible to adjust to load changes in future. Moreover, at loads ? 30%, energy saving by induction motors with YY/D connection is greater than the one using induction motors with thyristor controllers. Induction motors YY/D connection application may be economical in cases where it is not recommended to use higher costs of energy efficiency of motors.

Subject: automated energy management systems.Purpose: identification of the main prospects for the use of automated energy management systems.Materials and methods: in Russia each year, due to the scornful attitude towards energy saving, about 400 million tons of reference fuel are lost, while only every third company approaches the energy efficiency systemically. Savings of fuel and energy resources largely depend on the proper organization and feasibility of rationing fuel and energy costs. One of the priorities of the strategy of transition to energy-efficient production is to carry out systematic work on the implementation of a system of resource and energy saving — the formation of the energy policy of the enterprise. The introduction and development of energy metering systems (AIIS TUE) for the sake of increasing the transparency of consumption and distribution of energy resources is an integral part of the implementation of the company’s energy policy. Minimizing the influence of the human factor at all stages is easily amenable to mathematical description and, accordingly, automation. The paper shows that without automation of management processes and monitoring energy efficiency it is impossible to count on success. The main stages of the implementation of the energy management system at the enterprise are given.Results: it is shown that the main result of the introduction of an automated energy management system is to reduce costs by more than 10 %, with the identified potential for further savings of at least 15...20 %, which is achieved by cre­ating a completely transparent energy consumption environment, with its characteristic reliability determined efficiency of the processed information.Conclusions: automated energy management can become the core in which all information flows from all management systems that have an impact on energy efficiency will be consolidated. Properly constructed automated energy manage­ment systems are a universal tool for implementing the energy policy of an enterprise, a serious investment with a clear payback horizon and an positive financial result over a long period.
