Abstract

The oil and gas complex is one of the main triggers of the industrial potential of the Russian Federation. An extremely important aspect for the Russian economy is the analysis of the introduction of intelligent digital technologies in the oil and gas industry, since it is necessary to immediately organize the transition from the traditional economy to the modern one – information, intellectual, digital. The use of digital technologies in the oil and gas industry is reduced to the automation of the entire process of oil and gas production and processing, and they are successfully integrated with digital control systems that are developed to solve the tasks of oil and gas processing enterprises in general. The article examines the features of the use of digital technologies by enterprises of the oil and gas complex at the stages of search and development of new oil and gas fields. The empirical basis of the study was made up of data on the reporting on the sustainable development of oil and gas companies of PJSC Gazprom Neft, PJSC Lukoil, PJSC NK Rosneft, PJSC Tatneft. The author identifies the problems of using digital technologies in the oil and gas industry, including: bimodal age distribution of the labor force; a significant increase in applications and data formats; global division of working groups; instant receipt of a huge amount of data in real time; a stable decrease in the number and size of new field discoveries; an increase in the cost of advanced technologies for restoring oil and gas production. In the context of the economic assessment of the search and development of new oil and gas fields, the use of an integral index of the use of digital technologies by oil and gas companies is proposed, which includes a number of indicators: the share of digital assets in the company's asset structure; the ratio of capital expenditures for digitalization of activities to the company's net profit; the share of employees with digital competencies; the share of new developed fields with the use of digital technologies; the profitability of the use of digital technologies (coefficient). The conclusion is substantiated that it is advisable for oil and gas companies to use the proposed conceptual model in order to identify the level of digitalization of the search and development of new oil and gas fields, which will allow improving the mechanism of state regulation of the country's oil and gas complex.
