Assessment of The Impact of Services and Digitalization Level on The Infrastructure Development in Oil and Gas Regions

Abstract

The relevance and feasibility of studying the problem lie in increasing the investment attractiveness of oil and gas enterprises by activating regional services in mineral resource specialization based on the extensive infrastructure being created. The purpose of this study is to establish a typology for infrastructure services catering to oil and gas enterprises by enhancing the service component and implementing digitalization programs in the regions specializing in mineral resources in Russia. The work substantiates the conceptual foundations of an integrated approach to the formation of infrastructure for economic systems of mineral resource specialization and related services in the form of a synthesis of concepts of reproductive, structural-functional, and systemic approaches. An analysis of the current state of the methodology for implementing a typology of infrastructure services for oil and gas enterprises in the Russian Federation and abroad was carried out. The formation of innovative infrastructure facilities was substantiated through economic modelling of the influence of oilfield services and the level of development of the territory's digitalization on the development of infrastructure facilities in oil and gas regions.
