Scientific and Technical Problems in Natural Gas Recovery, Transport, and Processing

Resumo

One of the priorities in Russia’s scientific and technological development is the transition to environmentally friendly and sustainable energy and increasing efficiency in the recovery and advanced processing of hydrocarbon raw materials. Realization of this aim will not only create a balanced, stably developing R&D sector in this field, but also ensure competitiveness among companies operating in the global gas market. This necessitates the close cooperation between PJSC Gazprom, the largest transnational energy corporation, and the Russian Academy of Sciences. Back in 2002, the company’s board and the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences adopted the Program of Fundamental and Applied Research of RAS Institutes, within which research teams of the Academy carried out a set of studies on the most important problems in the development of Russia’s gas production. In 2017, the Research and Development Program in the interests of Gazprom was updated and aimed at further development of Russia’s energy and industrial infrastructure, the creation of a fundamental basis for new technologies, and the elaboration and implementation of innovative products and services at gas recovery, transport, and processing facilities.
