Development of oil and gas industries on the base of innovative trends is indicator of sustainable development of the economy of any state. Advancement of innovative trends in the development of the Russian oil and gas industry is the only way to preserve and hold favorable positions on the home and international markets. The authors propose to apply an integrated approach to the design and implementation of innovative development projects at oil and gas enterprises. First, oil and gas enterprises should widely introduce a wide range of innovative technologies with a high potential for internal reserves. Implementation of innovative technologies by empowerment of the energy resources allows for significant economic benefits and upgrading the efficiency of an enterprise within a short term. Another aspect of the problem is related with supporting innovation technologies interconnected with managerial technologies or managerial innovations being the changes aimed at providing a favorable environment for the outcome of innovative technologies. Creation of a favorable management environment as the basis in innovative processes is one of the key factors for successful development. The proposed solution will contribute to innovative development of domestic enterprises and the Russian economy as a whole.
The intensification of innovation processes in Russia is a challenging task that requires a continuous search for solutions to make possible the many required changes in economics. We consider the major factors needed to advance an innovative activity at all levels in the national economy to have a freely exchanged flow of innovative ideas between all actors involved. As practice shows, the currently existing models in the country to deal with open innovations are mostly based on a cluster development approach, which is still limited. The authors propose synergizing the cluster approach with an ecosystem innovation model, which should ensure an effective collaboration and an accelerated rate for the diffusion of innovations between various actors while involving various regions. The purpose of the study was to develop a conceptual model for implementing open proposals from participants in the innovation economy. The research methodology is based on numerous works in the field of open innovation theory, cluster and ecosystem approaches. The study utilizes empirical and dialectical methods of scientific knowledge. The methodological toolkit covers information processing with historical analysis, a literature review using the Russian Citation Index and Scopus databases, analysis and diagnostics of innovative activity in domestic regions, the comparison method, modeling and correlation analysis. We concluded that the interaction of participants in the Russian regions through implementing the cluster model is not sufficiently effective and requires the development of new methodological approaches. Therefore, we propose combining the cluster approach with the ecosystem innovation model, which should ensure an effective cooperation and accelerate the rate of innovation dissemination among various subjects involving several regions. To determine the approach’s efficiency, the proposed concept should be tested in one or more regions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
