Dung Quat refinery is under the management of Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical Joint Stock Company (BSR). Currently, Dung Quat refinery is facing opportunities and challenges from macroeconomic policies as well as the development trend of the oil and gas industry including the issue of improving product quality, enhancing operational efficiency and competitiveness to be able to survive and develop in a new situation. In this article, the authors suggest solutions to upgrade Dung Quat refinery gasoline products to satisfy more stringent standards and environmental regulations. Standards here mean the Euro V standards set out in the EN 228:2008 applicable to gasoline/petrol respectively. Solutions proposed to overcome problems relate to benzene, sulfur and olefin content in BSR gasoline products. The article proposes two basic solutions to upgrade the gasoline product quality of Dung Quat refinery with some preliminary estimates. Each solution has its own advantages and disadvantages. Depending on specific situations, the more suitable one will be selected. Detailed calculation will be performed if the product quality upgrading project is implemented.

Currently, questions about digitalization, namely the digital transformation of the fuel and energy complex, are often raised in the Russian Federation. The relevance of the topic lies in the importance and necessity of introducing digital tools in the oil and gas industry. The arguments, substantiating the effects of digital transformation in the oil and gas complex are presented. The interpretation of the digital transformation of the Russian fuel and energy complex is given. The statistical data of the Ministry of Energy on the assessment of the total effect of digital transformation by 2035 are presented. The influence of digital technologies is analysed on the example of the oil and gas company Public Joint Stock Company “Lukoil”. The necessity of the National Infrastructure Investment Project, the importance of creating a center for hard-to-recover reserves and the introduction of an intelligent field are shown.

Paper analyzes the prospects of biofuels second and third generation in the structure of the global energy balance, demonstrates a sharp decline in oil and gas revenues in the Russian budget, describes advantages and disadvantages of biodiesel and bioethanol production. The connection between the growth of Russia’s export potential in terms of hydrocarbon products processing with EU standards implementation has been proved. The problems of the realization of programs on the oxygenate technologies development in the Union State of Russia-Belarus were revealed. The capacity of the market of 3-4 generations fuel with using non-food raw materials and various types of biomass was estimated. Was proved that at a high level of growth in business value and profitability of production there are incentives to organize deep processing in Russia’s hydrocarbon production. It is proved that the oil and gas industry in a creative economy should increase its science intensity and depth of raw materials processing, including ones in related industries.

Abstract The article is devoted to the use of electron beam welding for connecting pipelines in the oil and gas industry. The analysis of the proposed approach and equipment for creating permanent pipe-flange connections is carried out. The advantages and disadvantages of the proposed approach are considered. During the work, the welded seam was calculated. A set of interchangeable attachments for the turntable has also been developed. Thus, the purpose of this work is to improve the quality of welded joints of oil and gas equipment through the use of electron-beam welding technology and design of replaceable nozzles for a turntable for an electron-beam welding unit.

The oil and gas production sector in Western Australia has grown dramatically in recent years and now represents the largest resource sector in the State economy. The industry has a very promising future but it faces a number of challenges if it is to achieve its full potential. Its production location in remote parts of the State confers both advantages and disadvantages. Chief among the disadvantages is the challenge of convincing the community and government of the benefits from the industry when many of those benefits are not apparent to the majority of the population. The emphasis in this paper is on economic impacts, social benefits and community attitudes.WA has produced about 820 million barrels of oil and 2000 million barrels of natural gas when gas is calculated in energy equivalent terms. Petroleum energy production has increased dramatically over the last 15 years and the State is now a substantial energy exporter. Petroleum sources provide the energy for over 85% of the final energy used in the State. Total industry investment over the last 18 years has been nearly $21,000 million for an average of $3.2 million each day. Direct employment by petroleum companies is around 2,500 people with flow-on employment in the services sector estimated at over 17,000 people. Petroleum companies have been major contributors to government revenue and to the development of remote regions in WA.

The Improvement of automation technology and its application in drilling rig have increased the drilling rig safety and efficiency. The petroleum drilling rig in China has been increasing as China is the fourth-leading oil producer in the oil and gas industry. However, there is a low percentage of automation equipment and the automatic catwalk still remains at the traditional stage compared to other countries. This paper introduced the present situation of the domestic well drilling rig, automatic catwalk technologies and the development trend is summarized.

The paper contains an analysis of advantages and disadvantages of oil service outsourcing for national oil and gas industry. It is demonstrated that the dependence on foreign oil service providers may lead to technological obsolescence of national oil and oil service industries and enables foreign operators to regulate implicitly the effectiveness of the national economy. It is shown that the dependence of Russian oil companies on foreign oil service providers in 2014 is not corporate, but sectoral. This fact, due to high importance of oil and gas industry, produces high risks for Russia’s economy in general. Main ways of development of the Russian oil service industry under sectoral sanctions are described.

According to the results of the study, we found that increasing the pressure in a stabilization column improves the sharpness of separation of butanes from pentanes. As a result, the product quality is getting better. The pilot-industrial runs confirm the possibility of improving the effectiveness of the stabilization columns in various processes by increasing the pressure within the permissible limits.

The article considers the features of the business model for managing oilfield service processes in big oil and gas companies using the example of PJSC Oil Company «Rosneft». The purpose of the article is to study current business models in oil and gas industry, identify their advantages and disadvantages, and develop recommendations for improving sourcing procedures in accordance with the dynamics and changes in the external environment of companies' functioning. The research applies a variety of scientific methods which include analysis, synthesis and systematization of conceptual and practical aspects of sourcing in the context of the Russian oil and gas industry. The authors provide a critical analysis of theoretical aspects related to the concepts of sourcing, outsourcing and insourcing, which have been in the focus of Russian economic science since the mid-2000s. Special attention is paid to the insourcing model, which is available and used by large companies in capital-intensive industries with long-term investment and production cycles, such as oil and gas. The signs of production and management inefficiency of insourcing are formalized. In terms of transaction costs, a comparison is made between the efficiency and effectiveness of outsourcing and vertical integration. Taking into account the peculiarities and distinctive features of modern business environment, its uncertainty and new challenges for oil and gas producing companies, the authors conclude that strategic outsourcing is most in demand. The results obtained in the study can be used in practice of oil and gas companies, as well as by government bodies in the process of developing a regulatory policy in the relevant area.
