The fact that the largest oil reserves are in Saudi Arabia, knows even a high school student.Just like the fact that Russia is right behind her in the list of countries with significant oil reserves.However, in terms of production we give to several countries.
largest oil field in Russia is practically in all regions: the Caucasus, in the Urals and West Siberian District, in the north, in Tatarstan.However, developed far from all of them, and some, such as "Tehneftinvest" whose plots are located in the Yamal-Nenets and neighboring Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug, are unprofitable.
Therefore, April 4, 2013 was the opening of the transaction with the Rockefeller Oil Company, which is already beginning to produce oil in the area.
However, not all Russian oil and gas fields are unprofitable.Proof of this - the successful extraction, which several companies are in the Yamal-Nenets district, on both banks of the Ob River.
Priobskoe considered one of the largest not only in Russia but also in the whole world.Open it was in 1982.It turned out that the stocks of the West Siberian oil and are located on the left and on the right bank of the Ob River.Working on the left bank began six years later, in 1988, and the right - eleven years later.
Today we know that Priobskoe - more than 5 billion tons of high-quality oil, which is at a depth of no more than 2.5 kilometers.
enormous reserves of oil and associated gas allowed to erect near the mine Priobskaya gas turbine power station, which works exclusively on the associated fuel.This station is not only fully meets the needs of the field.It is able to supply the produced electricity in the Khanty-Mansiysk region for the needs of residents.
Today developing Priobskoe several companies.
Some believe that during the extraction from the ground comes ready purified oil.It is a profound mistake.Reservoir fluid that comes to the surface (crude oil) enters the shop, where she will be cleared of impurities and water, and normalize the amount of magnesium ions, the department associated gas.This - a large and high-precision work.For its performance Priobskoe provided by a complex of laboratories, shops and transport networks.
finished products (oil and gas) are transported and used for its intended purpose, are only waste.It was they who created the biggest problem today for the field: they have accumulated so much that it is impossible to eliminate them.
The company was created specifically for the recycling processes today only the most "fresh" waste.From the slurry (so-called waste products) manufactured in the company expanded clay, which is highly demanded in construction.However, so far from the resulting expanded clay building only access roads to fields.
field has another meaning: it provides a stable, well-paid employment to several thousand workers, some of whom are highly qualified specialists and workers without qualifications.
