RN-Uvatneftegaz (part of Rosneft's oil and gas production complex) has launched the modern 110 kV Yarus substation. This is a key infrastructure facility for the Yuzhno-Venikhyartskoye field, ensuring reliable and high-quality power supply to a group of new wells, thereby increasing hydrocarbon production and preparing the infrastructure for the development of promising areas.
The new substation will meet the field's growing energy consumption due to well drilling and the commissioning of high-tech raw material processing facilities. Previously, the facilities were supplied with power from remote sources.
The 110 kV "Yarus" substation, with a capacity of 25 MVA, consists of two modules mounted on mobile platforms. The facility is equipped with modern domestically produced power and switching equipment. High-tech microprocessor relay protection and a telemetry system ensure full integration into the existing operational information system. This allows for remote real-time monitoring of all key parameters, prompt response to network changes, and control of operating modes from the company's central control center, minimizing on-site personnel presence.
The equipment and design enable operation at temperatures down to -55°C. The substation's design utilized solutions that minimize the impact on the Uvatsky District ecosystem. Eco-friendly materials were used, an oil collection system is included, and the access roads are laid without damaging vegetation.
The creation of energy infrastructure to support the drilling of new wells in the Uvat project's license areas continues. Today, the company operates over 540 substations of various voltage classes, 90 distribution units, and power lines of various voltage classes, with a total length of over 3,200 kilometers.
