Abstract
The article is devoted to the problem of reserves and opportunities for further improvement of oil refineries in the field of energy efficiency and energy conservation. The results of rational use of energy resources and their savings, as well as improvement of the process of energy consumption management in the implementation of all typesof the company’s activities are shown on the example of the production activities of PJSC «NK «Rosneft».The assessment of the existing methods and approaches used to analyze the energy efficiency of technological processes and aggregates in terms of their functionality is given. From the considered set of methods, the Pinch method is singled out as the most promising for a comprehensive analysis of production in order to optimizethe consumption of various energy resources when designing new enterprises or production units, as well as modernization of production facilities.
