Abstract

Background. In conditions of variability of external and internal factors that directly affect the loading of the existing hydrocarbon transport system, the risks arise associated with the productive capacity of the existing infrastructure and noncompliance with the requirements for the quality of delivered oil. Objective. To create a tool allowing to assess the degree of loading of existing infrastructure facilities and indicators of the commercial quality of oil at commercial delivery sites in the near and long term, the availability of which is essential for risk minimization. Materials and methods. An integrated model in combination with automation tools is an effective tool for making strategic decisions in order to develop the assets of a subsurface user company. Results. By the example of transport infrastructure, the paper describes an approach to using the gathering system model, which jointly with automation algorithms allows solving a number of strategic tasks of oil and gas producers, such as performing multivariate hydraulic calculations and monitoring oil quality in order to verify compliance with the requirements. Conclusions. An integrated model in combination with the developed automation tools is an auxiliary tool for management decision-making. The tool helps to significantly reduce the labor costs for performing calculations and primary processing of the results. The implemented approaches can be used for hydraulic calculations and monitoring of limitations of transportation networks of similar configuration.
