USE OF NEW INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE OIL-REFINING INDUSTRY

Abstract

The application of new information technologies in the field of automation of oil refining and petrochemistry has not yet been carried out at the proper level. At modern oil refineries, big data technologies are being introduced. Big Data is one of the key areas of digital production and can serve as a tool for integrating technological installations and equipment that have a wide range of information about the technological process and the main production as a whole. The fourth industrial revolution, which is based on the global "internetization" of technological installations and equipment, is closely related to the use of the Internet of things and cloud storage. The transition to Industry 4.0 in the refinery implies the ability of the refinery to integrate digital and physical technologies to improve operation and increase productivity. But, unfortunately, the oil refining industry has a low activity in the implementation of digital technologies. The emergence of new cyber-physical production systems will radically change the traditional logic of oil production. The work is devoted to the use of information technologies of the oil refining industry in the field of integrated automation of the refinery as a whole, and individual technological processes, including for the production of polypropylene, by leaching, washing and drying, which is part of the refinery, these issues are almost not considered. Keywords: big data, industry 4.0, security, information technologies.
