Authors examined particularities in shelf oil and gas production. Social-economic aspects have been revealed of consequences during underwater production and pipeline transportation of hydrocarbon crude. Volumes of losses from emergencies at pipelines and platforms were analyzed with differentiation of principal world shelf oil and gas production regions. Loss volumes were estimated for the North-Eastern European region with reference to components of hydrocarbon production and transportation systems. Methodical a...

The work given has been aimed at consideration of methodical approaches for the feasibility study of perspective in mineral deposits development, and based on it, preliminary ranking of criteria which should be applied relative to the Arctic solid mineral deposits. Authors used a formal logic method (analysis synthesis). It was revealed that both the domestic and foreign approaches cannot be applied directly for the feasibility studies of the Arctic solid mineral deposits because they consider the arctic condition...

In accordance with the developed methodology for a comprehensive solution of issues of mineral deposits development in the Russian Arctic zone, a list of criteria has been established that allow evaluating the priority of nuclear power sources in solving problems of power supply to the Russian Arctic regions while developing the deposits and performing a ranking of the various reactor plants. The list is based on information technologies modeling objects, production and processing of raw material and geoecotechnol...
