Innovative approaches to the formation of environmental safety at the objects of oil and gas production

Abstract

The innovative approach to environmental safety upgrade of pumping-circulatory equipment of drilling rigs based on the analysis of life history and continuous perfection principles. Examples of implementation of innovative approach in environmental safety investigation of oil and gas wells in order to define environmentally hazardous units of equipment and technological processes are given. In order to solve the problem of environmental safety improvement and the effectiveness of flushing out of well that are being drilled a modernized scheme of drilling rig pumping-circulatory system has been designed. System approach of modernizing separate elements of pumping-circulatory system has been used. The maximum air-tight pumping-circulatory drilling rig system has been designed. The proposed model takes into account the necessity of hazardous evaporations outlet with the aim of their further utilization. Such an approach will avoid the entry harmful substances into the environment and prevent harmful effects of aggressive substances on health personnel of drilling rig, environment and on state of the technological equipment.

Principles of natural capital preservation in the context of strategy of state environmental safety

“…Scientists highlight following conditions for principles improving of state environmental policy and state regulation of environmental safety in Ukraine [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]:…”

Environmentally-efficient approaches to oil and gas producing sites

“…There is a set of conceptual approaches for maintaining environmentally safe production process at oil and gas producing sites [9,10,11]. The important measures that make it possible to prevent environmental pollution and to cut the material costs -are modernizing equipment [2,12,13]. Environmental aspect of modernizing equipment includes cutting expenditure resources during equipment manufacturing as well as during man-caused operations with the use of this equipment.…”

“…The complexity of the issue lies in the fact that those oil and gas producing sites may be located close to protected or recreational areas [1]. Alongside with this negative effects may last for a long time and be dangerous to the environment [2], which calls for the search of innovative technical solutions, as well as alternative energy sources development. [3,2] When industrial objects function in their normal mode it has a set of consequences: sickness rate increase, disturbance of natural environment functioning, resource capacity influence.…”
