Experience in the Implementation of Drilling Waste Utilization Technology on the Example of a Large Oil and Gas Region of Russia

The oil industry is characterized by an intense impact on the environment, which inevitably causes its change. In the production process, the existing state of the environment in the territories of industrial facilities is completely or partially disturbed. Today, the result of the negative environmental impact of the fuel and energy industry on the nature of the regions of northern Russia has resulted in millions of tons of drilling and oil production waste stored in sludge pits and causing colossal damage to the atmosphere. hydro- and lithosphere of the country's oil-producing territories. The aim of this work is to improve the technological process of utilization of drilling waste in the fields with the receipt of an inert building material that does not have a negative impact on the components of the natural environment. In the course of work, based on the analysis of the proposed disposal methods, the most optimal option was selected and a technology for disposal of drilling waste at an oil field was developed, a situational map of the object was presented, and an estimate of the cost of the proposed disposal technology was carried out. Based on the results of the work carried out, a conclusion was made about the effectiveness of the utilization technology under consideration since it was revealed a decrease in the amount of generated and accumulated waste, a decrease in the costs of maintaining and reclamation of waste accumulation / disposal facilities.
