This paper investigates the composition of geopolymer cement for thickening time under elevated temperature and pressure. Geopolymer based-cement becoming popular in construction industries because of its improved properties either chemically and physically as compared to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). At the same time, replacement of OPC with geopolymer cement able to eliminate CO2 emission due to calcination burning process. However, applications of geopolymer cement to oil and gas industry for cementing job are not well recorded. Fly ash based geopolymer cement with different percentages of slag from 0% to 10% were mixed using sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate as alkali activators. Density, fluid loss and compressive strengths were determined. The sample were cured at 3,000 psi and 65°C for 24 hours. Results show that the addition of slag reduces the thickening time from 30 minutes to just only 18 minutes with almost 40% reduction in time. In terms of density and compressive strength, an increment of slag is directly proportional as the value increased from 14.3 ppg to 15.0 ppg for density and 1,120 psi to 2,155 psi for compressive strength. For fluid loss test, increment of slag results in decrement of fluid loss from 0.64 ml to just only 0.38 ml.

Activated Slag (AAS) and Fly Ash (FA) based geopolymer concrete a new blended alkali-activated concrete that has been progressively studied over the past years because of its environmental benefits superior engineering properties. Geopolymer has many favorable characteristics in comparison to Ordinary Portland Cement. Many base materials could be utilized to make geopolymer with the convenient concentration of activator solution. In this study, the experimental program composed of two phases; phase on divided into four groups; Group one deliberated the effect of sodium hydroxide molarity and different curing condition on compressive strength. Group two studied the effect of alkali activated solution (NaOH and Na2SiO3) content on compressive strength and workability. The effect of sand replacement with slag on compressive strength and workability was explained in group three. Group four studied the effect of slag replacement with several base materials Fly Ash (FA), Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), pulverized Red Brick (PRB), and Meta Kaolin (MK). Phase two contains three mixtures from phase one which had the highest compressive strength. For each mixture, the fresh concrete test was air content. In addition the hardened concrete tests were the compressive strength at 3, 7, 28, 90, 180, and 365 days, the flexural strength at 28, 90, and 365 days, and the young's modulus at 28, 90, and 365 days. Moreover; the three mixtures were exposed to elevated temperature at 100oC, 300oC, and 600oC to study the effect of elevated temperature on compressive and flexural strength.

An Arrhenius relationship is employed to develop a model for prediction of gas permeation in the polymeric materials. A permeation cell was designed to measure the gas permeation. The permeation of Helium was examined over a range of low to high temperature and pressure conditions. The results of the experiments were used to verify the accuracy of the prediction model. The obtained model was successful in predicting gas permeation rate at two different pressures. The results showed that pressure’s effect is insignificant on models. The predicted results for different pressure were close, and both models can be used to obtain an approximation for gas permeation rate for the examined material where no experimental data exists.

Currently, there is a strong need of high-performance and environment-friendly paving materials in Russian Federation. Sulfur dumps near the oil industry enterprises consumes area which otherwise could be occupied by vegetation, contributing to the improvement of the environmental situation. Incorporation of sulfur in bulk building materials contributes to decrease of load to the environment. The results of numerous studies of sulfur-extended asphalt concretes are summarized in the present work. For the suppression of hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide we propose to use the complex nanoscale modifier. The application of such modifier leads to several positive effects. Both amount of sulfur in constructional mix and mobility of the mix can be increased. The values of operational properties, notably compressive strength and resistance to rutting, can also be increased. Due to consumption of industrial by-product, the environmental load decreases in regions near the oil and gas industry enterprises.

Federal tax revenues from the main sectors of the Russian economy after the 1998 crisis are examined in the article. Authors present the structure of revenues from these sectors by main taxes for 1999-2003 and prospects for 2004. Emphasis is given to an increasing dependence of budget on revenues from oil and gas industries. The share of proceeds from these sectors has reached 1/3 of total federal revenues. To explain this fact world oil prices dynamics and changes in tax legislation in Russia are considered. Empirical results show strong dependence of budget revenues on oil prices. The analysis of changes in tax legislation in oil and gas industry shows that the government has managed to redistribute resource rent in favor of the state.

The article deals with the issues of political and economic power as well as their constellation on the market. The theory of public choice and the theory of public contract are confronted with an approach centered on the power triad. If structured in the power triad, interactions among states representatives, businesses with structural advantages and businesses without structural advantages allow capturing administrative rents. The political power of the ruling elites coexists with economic power of certain members of the business community. The situation in the oil and gas industry, the retail trade and the road construction and operation industry in Russia illustrates key moments in the proposed analysis.

The article is devoted to the consideration of geopolitical challenges for the analysis of geoenvironmental risks (GERs) in the hydrocarbon development of the Arctic territory. Geopolitical risks (GPRs), like GERs, can be transformed into opposite external environment factors of oil and gas industry facilities in the form of additional opportunities or threats, which the authors identify in detail for each type of risk. This is necessary for further development of methodological base of expert methods for GER management in the context of the implementational proposed two-stage model of the GER analysis taking to account GPR for the improvement of effectiveness making decisions to ensure optimal operation of the facility oil and gas industry and minimize the impact on the environment in the geopolitical conditions of the Arctic.The authors declare no conflict of interest
