On February 27, universities participating in the second wave of the federal project "Advanced Engineering Schools" presented reports on their work through 2025, including representatives of the RosGeoTech Advanced Engineering School, which is being implemented at the M.D. Millionshchikov State Petroleum Technological University in collaboration with the State University of Management.

The project implementation results were assessed by a Council chaired by Russian Minister of Science and Higher Education Valery Falkov. Reports from 20 schools opened in December 2023 were presented at the meeting.

The RosGeoTech Engineering School team presented results on engineering training, research, new technology development, and objectives for 2026.

The team included: Andrey Luzhetsky, Head of the RosGeoTech School of Industrial and Applied Sciences; Magomed Mintsaev, Rector of the State Petroleum Technical University; Maria Karelina, Vice-Rector of the State University of Management; Khusain Betiev, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of the Chechen Republic; and Boris Nikishin, Chief Specialist of the HR Department of Rosneft Oil Company.

The speakers noted that the mission of the RosGeoTech school is to ensure Russia's leadership in innovative solutions for the sustainable development of oil-producing regions, including the efficient exploitation of fields at the final stage of their life cycle.

The team presented significant results from research projects implemented in the interests of sustainable development in Russia's oil and gas producing regions:

A mobile pilot plant for reagent-free removal of solid deposits from industrial pipelines; "Geothermics-5" – a pilot plant for generating electricity using a low-potential carrier – oil well water; production of rare elements for industry – promising flooded oil wells have been identified, results have been obtained for extracting iodine from produced water using environmentally friendly oxidizers; conversion of oil-contaminated areas of the North Caucasus Federal District to agricultural use through bioremediation technology.

The school is particularly proud of the opening of three special educational spaces, which have no analogues in the country:

An educational and scientific oil and gas testing ground based on real oil wells; the TOP-Engineer interactive complex center with digital twins and simulators; and the ABRIS robotics and video analytics laboratory.

The total amount of extra-budgetary funding raised over the two years of the PIS's operation amounted to over 500 million rubles. In 2025, R&D contracts worth over 127 million rubles were signed and implemented, double the previous year's figures.

The RosGeoTech PISh team successfully completed the final assessment, maintaining its position in the second group of Advanced Engineering Schools and receiving an annual development grant.
