Resource-Saving Technologies for Oil Field Development in the Arctic

To ensure rational consumption of resources when developing oil and gas fields in the conditions of hard-toreach regions of the Arctic zone is, undoubtedly, an urgent task. To solve this problem it is necessary to analyze the consumption of the main type of fuel – diesel one, to identify the causes and quantitative characteristics of losses in the generation and consumption of electricity and thermal energy, the possibility of using associated petroleum gas. Technical solutions are presented, aiming to improve the processes of electricity generation, utilization of thermal energy during its generation and in distribution networks. Potential opportunities for resource saving and new trends of use of alternative energy sources for the objects under consideration are revealed.
