... Dyukov. The new complex will enable the plant to increase production levels of motor fuels, as well as commence production of petroleum coke in Serbia for the first time. The construction of this facility is a key project in the second phase of a major modernisation programme at the NIS refining facilities, total investment in which stands at more than €300 million. Following the launch of the new complex with its delayed coking technology, the refining depth (“conversion rate”) at the Pančevo ...

Gazprom Neft has obtained a patent for its SUprID (СупрИД) — Engineering Data Management System (EDMS), its own proprietary digital solution. The system generates electronic models of production facilities — “digital twins” — containing engineering and technical documentation and 3D models of facilities. The SUprID EDMS currently covers Gazprom Neft’s Moscow and Omsk Refineries, and is delivering a 20% reduction in time spent on routine operations, maintenance and repairs. The economic benefit of...

Gazprom Neft’s Moscow Refinery has further improved the operation of its “Biosphere” biological water treatment facilities, with water — now reaching 99.9% purity — being used for steam generation in line with the plant’s requirements. This technological solution — unique to oil refining in Russia — will further reduce heat and electricity consumption. The economic benefit from these initiatives is expected to reach more than RUB120 million per year. The Biosphere is one of the key projects in the...

... offline. Representatives from oil refining and engineering companies, R&D organisations and state agencies discussed the current state of the industry, the deployment of digital technologies, improving efficiency, and environmental performance. Refinery modernisation is an important element in Gazprom Neft’s strategy to 2030. Speaking during the plenary session, Mikhail Antonov, Head of Gazprom Neft’s Oil and Gas Refining Directorate, made a presentation on ...

The Gazprom Neft Moscow Refinery has increased capacity at its automated tanker-loading terminal by 25%, further enhancing the security of fuel supplies to the capital and its suburbs. This cutting-edge complex, constructed in 2019, is designed to handle shipments of aviation and motor fuels to road-tankers. Terminal capacity has been increased in line with higher production at the high-tech Euro+ refining complex, thanks to which the Moscow Refinery has increased gasoline, diesel and aviation fuel...

... tonnes. Total gasoline production is down to H1 2019 levels, at 3.91 million tonnes. Refining depth (the conversion rate) at Gazprom Neft’s Moscow and Omsk Refineries increased by 2.5 percentage points, to 84.4% and 94.0%, respectively. The ongoing modernisation programme currently being undertaken across Gazprom Neft’s refining facilities has ensured efficient production in the face of current market trends. Production of marine fuels at Gazprom Neft refineries ...

A digital industrial-safety control system has been put into commercial operation at the Gazprom Neft Omsk Refinery’s gas fractionation unit. Using neural network elements it is now possible to obtain information on this production facility’s condition and status online, and to predict and prevent potential deviations from norm, in advance. This project has been implemented together with Rostechnadzor (the Russian government’s supervisory agency for ecological, technological, and nuclear issues)...

... country — being both interesting and profitable for business and investors, and leading to the creation of highly-skilled, well-paid jobs for engineers, production staff, and other specialists. In which context, we should be talking about extensive modernisation and capacity-building across our entire industrial base — in import-substitution projects, and in creating efficient production facilities in both traditional and new and promising industries. The Moscow Refinery, and the solutions utilised ...

Gazpromneft-Catalytic Systems, operator of the company’s catalyst business, has supplied a commercial batch of diesel-fuel hydrotreatment catalysts to the Omsk Refinery — this 35,000-tonne consignment being intended for use at a diesel-production hydrotreatment facility at the refinery. Test results show this catalyst to demonstrate high activity, allowing a longer service life in comparison with foreign alternatives. Gazprom Neft began active construction of its cutting-edge catalyst facility in...

Remote-control technologies for managing construction and installation works (CIW) have been successfully tested at the Gazprom Neft Omsk Refinery. This new digital package, developed by Gazpromneft-Digital Solutions,* together with the company’s Digital Transformation Directorate, offers a platform for “on-site” collaboration between construction specialists and external experts, including equipment producers. An augmented-reality (AR) headset transmits audio and video signals to external experts...
