Abstract

Operation of oil and gas fields has significant influence with the territory of traditional environmental management. Environmental principles are basis on the concept of sustainable land and environmental management of the northern oil and gas regions. The aim of these principles is to keep the native habitat and traditional way of indigenous peoples’ life. Taking into account environmental principles, an environmental-economic framework of Yamal district of Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug was formed in order to maintain a balance between natural complexes and human economic activities. The coefficient of ecological stability, calculated taking into account the functioning of the elements of the framework, and the coefficient of ecological tension characterize the relative stability of the territory. An environmental-economic framework of Yamal district should act as a way of management of the territory through the established modes of using its main elements to ensure sustainable land and environmental management.
