Abstract

The disturbed balance of the “society-nature” system has led to the fact that the production of output usually involves environmental pollution. The reason is that most technological processes are far from perfect and involve formation of intermediate substances or end products that do not participate in further production process and consequently become waste. Therefore, the authors analyze the methodological approaches of integrated environmental and economic assessment of environment protection measures during the construction of gas industry facilities, which is a relevant issue in terms of ecology. The authors claim that the extraction of fuel and energy resources disrupt the biogeocoenosises’ components during the survey, development and exploitation of deposits, leading to the manifestation of dangerous natural management processes and destruction of flora and fauna. Therefore, the environmental-economic mechanism for the formation of environmental measures during the construction of gas facilities should be improved within the framework of the strategy of sustainable economic development of society and ensuring its environmental safety. Analysis of methods for assessing the environmental and economic impact of gas industry enterprises on the environment has shown that enterprises need further instrumental and methodological improvement.

Highlights

  • The modern intensification of the development of the raw materials complex of the Russian economy is accompanied by the inefficient use of the natural resources potential, an increase in the release of industrial substances into the environment, which leads to the destruction of ecosystems

  • The Russian economy is distinguished by exceptionally high environmental intensity, which is reflected in the enormous expenditure of natural resources to obtain the final economic results, in a significant level of specific pollution per unit of production

  • The process of examination of a complex of environmental measures during the construction and operation of gas industry facilities should be automated and include the estimation of possible economic damage for the project elements, calculation of the efficiency of the complex of environmental measures, as well as prevented and residual losses, which allow to adjust a project at the pre-design stage

Summary

Introduction

The modern intensification of the development of the raw materials complex of the Russian economy is accompanied by the inefficient use of the natural resources potential, an increase in the release of industrial substances into the environment, which leads to the destruction of ecosystems. As a result of their activity, harmful substances are released into the atmosphere, polluted wastewater is discharged into the hydrosphere, and land is contaminated with solid industrial waste This defines the main goals and objectives of the gas industry in the field of environmental preservation and the development of environmental measures: introduction of resource-saving and environmentally friendly technologies, organization of production processes in environmentally friendly setting, reclamation of disturbed and contaminated lands, etc. One of the basic principles for the future operation of gas industry facilities should be the approach of a systemic view of nature and production as a whole, consisting of environmental and social factors that will help to prevent the formation and increase in waste processing and, reduce the anthropogenic influence to a level that does not adversely affect the natural environment.
