Rational Usage of Associated Petroleum Gas

In article is considered the problem of associated petroleum gas (APG) combustion in the oil companies based in Russia. At the moment, the utilization percent of the gas extracted together with petroleum, does not reach does not reach necessary indicators normalized by the legislation. According to official data no more than 80% of produced APG are rationally utilized (a rated value - 95%). Due to combustion of APG is followed by an oxygen consumption and an excessive heat generation it negatively affects on the environment and as a result leads to enhanced greenhouse effect. In article is set a task to reveal main directions of associated petroleum gas utilization and to determine possible efficiency of applied technologies on the example fields of the oil and gas production department Yamashneft. During the research most common methods of APG usage within industrial base were studied. (C) 2018 "Oi1GasScientificResearchProject" Institute. All rights reserved.
