Development of digital economy in Irkutsk region

Abstract

For several years, the digital economy has been implemented into the economic system of Russia. The group of promising digitalization areas are as follows: transport, housing and utilities, banking, education, healthcare, etc. Currently, the digital economy is a project aimed at improving the efficiency of the regional policies. Implementation of new nanotechnologies makes it possible to implement the “smart city” or “digital region” system. The regional authorities are solving the problems of implementation of new and unknown technologies that can reduce costs without increasing the unemployment level. The government is ready to support all projects aimed at changing social spheres. For successful implementation of digital technology projects, it is necessary to analyze all sectors that need special attention. The development of the region will depend on the solution of these tasks. Today, Irkutsk region is ready to perform priority tasks set by the President of the Russian Federation in the economic and social spheres (industry, agriculture, construction, urban economy, transport and energy infrastructure, financial services). For this purpose, they are implementing digital technologies and platform solutions.

Designing trenchless technologies in oil and gas engineering

“… access to the pipeline (e.g., depth, traffic volume, other underground utilities);  construction constraints (e.g., groundwater, section lengths, side connections and need for bypass piping) [16][17]. During the installation, precautions must be taken to prevent undue stretching of the tubular polyethylene jacket.…”

“…Because of this, the loads from the ground and ground transport tend to be of much less importance, and the designer should pay more attention to the effects of groundwater pressure in conjunction with negative internal pressure (vacuum). For pressure pipes, the material and SDR class depend on the working pressure in accordance with international standards EN 1555 and EN 14401 [16]. The basis for designing is the relationship between internal pressure and geometric characteristics calculated by Barlow's formula:…”

Development of an algorithm for creating RES-based facilities

“…The main requirements for the development of power supply systems are I. Insurance of energy security by:  Constructing fuel-free power plants, partial diversification of electricity production;  Creating a distributed generation system based on local energy systems using renewable sources and modern intelligent energy distribution and storage systems;  achieving the minimum level of losses of the electric power during the transportation and distribution through the distributed generation using the RES [22];  improving the reliability of energy supply by increasing the degree of its decentralization.…”

Problems and conditions for using renewable energy sources in the energy supply systems of the Far North

“…The special conditions of the Far North areas and areas equated to them, which must be taken into account when implementing projects, are:  Economic isolation of territories, no connections between neighboring areas;  Seasonality and non-permanent duration of navigation, depending on the timing of the ice drift, abundance of rivers and other non-permanent factors;  Complex, multi-link transport schemes of fuel delivery (up to 7000 thousand km), a large percentage of lost and damaged cargo;  Need for the long-term storage of large stocks of goods and fuel [18];  Long heating season (9-11 months);  Severe climatic conditions: extremely low temperatures, polar night, high wind loads;  Permafrost and its degradation due to the global climate change;  Low population density [19].…”
