Capital construction expenses make a significant portion of the oil field development costs

Conceptual engineering of infrastructure is an essential component of conceptual field engineering. It includes development of technological solutions for field facilities construction and subsequent feasibility study based on the selected development concept. This process takes into account the influence of processes occurring in the reservoir, wells and surface infrastructure

Development of new oil regions (Yamal, East Siberia and Arctic offshore areas) involves delivery of major capital projects that require prevention of risks of cost and schedule impacts. This, in turn, requires initial adequate assessment of necessary investment, cost control during construction, and consideration of external economic conditions

Gazprom Neft's Science and Technology Center experiments with all the new technical solutions in field infrastructure and tests new equipment, alternative materials and technologies used during construction of infrastructure facilities

Gazprom Neft's Science and Technology Center possesses the necessary experience and qualification for private (non-state) expert reviews of design documentation, with exception of engineering surveys, as required by applicable laws. Such expert reviews are mandatory for design documents of all capital construction projects
