Abstract
Peru experienced the oil rush due to the discovery of reserves, but since the Camisea project was found in the Cuzco region, oil has been in decline, Peru is rated too low competitiveness rates below countries such as Ecuador and Colombia. The hydrocarbons sector accounted for 54% of the total energy tender in 2012. The oil and gas industry has advanced technologically. Today, the technological challenges are focused on taking advantage of unconventional resources having a strong focus on process safety, environmental management, and fuel quality. In a new era of high volatility in the oil and gas price, technology is crucial to maximizing the value; among them, the Modernization Project of the Talara Refinery and its process is announced. Peru is perfecting technologies to take advantage of gas and oil that are difficult to access so that its role in the Peruvian economy is fundamental.
Highlights
The oil and gas production worldwide has a great energy demand
Technological challenges are focused on exploiting unconventional resources, increasing the recovery of existing fields, and using the increasingly powerful and portable resources of mass computing and wireless technologies
In the 1950s, the industry focused on technologies to find and produce oil in areas with significant surface oil manifestations, processing the lightest possible crudes in refineries whose operation was very manual
Summary
The oil and gas production worldwide has a great energy demand. Significant changes towards new forms of exploration and production of hydrocarbons entail a great technological and environmental challenge. Technological challenges are focused on exploiting unconventional resources, increasing the recovery of existing fields, and using the increasingly powerful and portable resources of mass computing and wireless technologies Peru has witnessed important changes in the hydrocarbon industry during the last 20 years , taking into account the discovery of the natural gas reserve at Camisea in the Cuzco region causing an energy revolution in Peru. The consumption of oil was displaced along with other primary energies due to its good development possibilities
