Bashneft improves oil transportation efficiency

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Bashneft Oil Company (part of Rosneft Oil Company) has begun pilot operation of its first pipeline made from composite materials, replacing traditional steel pipes. The first pipeline, at the Munir Gallyamov field, is 10 kilometers long. It has significantly improved oil transportation efficiency, environmental safety, and industrial safety.

The composite pipeline is the first stage in the creation of a large-scale production infrastructure using innovative developments in Bashkortostan's new oil-producing region. The pipeline was installed at the Munir Gallyamov field using pipe screwing. Installation speed is five times faster than traditional steel pipe welding.

Composite pipelines are corrosion-resistant and require no electrochemical protection, corrosion inhibition, or cleaning. The guaranteed service life of such "pipes" is three times longer—up to 50 years. The smoother internal surface of composite oil pipelines significantly reduces hydraulic losses during oil pumping and eliminates deposits on the pipe walls, which over time reduce the throughput of steel pipelines.

The transition to pipes made from this innovative material will significantly accelerate the construction of new oil pipelines and the development of reserves. The project was initiated by specialists from Bashneft-Dobycha, Bashneft's hydrocarbon field development operator.

Implementing innovation and maximizing technological potential is one of the key priorities of Rosneft's strategy. The company strives to improve production efficiency by relying on advanced domestic developments and technical solutions.

Reference:

Bashneft Oil Company is one of the oldest companies in the country's oil and gas industry, producing and refining oil and gas. The company's key assets are located in the Republic of Bashkortostan.

Hydrocarbon exploration and production is also carried out in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, the Orenburg Region, and the Republic of Tatarstan.

PGConf is the largest annual conference held by Postgres Professional, a Russian developer of database management systems (DBMS) and other data products. Developers and administrators present their developments and best practices for using the system. One of the topics of discussion is the object-relational database management system PostgreSQL. This year, Anton Chumak, a fourth-year student, participated in the conference. Faculty of Information Technology, NSU.

"At the conference, I talked about my patch for PostgreSQL, which adds composite parameters to the configuration system. A patch is a set of changes made to the codebase. I wrote some code that I'm adding to the existing code, and this code changes the program's behavior. Since PostgreSQL is an open system developed by a global, international community of developers, I can't simply add my code as if it were a personal project; I have to take it through multiple stages of community approval. So, I created the patch and contributed it to the community," said Anton Chumak.

At the conference, Anton presented a paper titled "How to Easily Configure Parameters of Complex Types." Prior to this, he spent six months working on a project within the PGLab database management systems lab, which opened this year at the NSU Faculty of Information Technology in collaboration with Postgres Professional. The results of his work became the topic of his thesis.

"My thesis is about implementing composite data types into the PostgreSQL configuration system. The result of my work is a patch that I'm contributing to the vanilla version. Vanilla is the open-source community version of PostgreSQL. But I also plan to implement these changes in Post Group's commercial product," Anton explained.

The conference was attended by over 1,400 participants and 36 speakers—all of them high-level specialists, database administrators, architects, developers, testers, and IT managers.

"Conferences like these feature people with cutting-edge ideas, and hearing about their work is invaluable. I was particularly interested in Anton Doroshkevich's presentation, Project Manager at InfoSoft, on information security and how to properly protect data. I generally enjoy the topic of PostgreSQL compilers and optimizers, and it was interesting to learn something new from the presentations by Postgres specialists," Anton shared.
