Optimization of the Oil and Gas Companies Energy Strategy

The paper considers ways to optimize contractual relations with grid companies for the supply of energy sources. At present, the most common form of relations between suppliers and consumers of resources causes penalty payments not only with increased energy consumption, but also with reduced values of resource consumption. Analysis of operational data showed that almost half of all equipment failures occurs without the appearance of any characteristic trends. It is extremely difficult to predict interruptions in the energy consumption of the corresponding equipment by parametric methods. Taking into account the probabilistic nature of the work and failures of the pumping and power equipment of oil and gas enterprises, the use of game theoretic methods is most expedient for forecasting the volumes of energy consumption.
