Contest purposes and goals
The main objective is to let talented young people join the oil-gas area for dealing with tasks of Russian oil-producing companies.
The contest goals include getting Russian higher educational institutions students and young specialists involved into production, and also promoting creation of conditions for carrying out the projects containing offers on solving urgent problems in this area.
Who can participate?
The program is carried out for students, postgraduates of Russian technical higher educational institutions, and also for young specialists no older than 35.
Projects can be prepared either individually or by an author team (not more than 3-5 participants).
Individual participation. Project is presented for the contest by one author. A main emphasis is made on the depth of a topic considered and completeness of the solution presented.
Team participation. Project is presented for the contest by a team of 3-5 participants. The participation of various specializations specialists is preferable for more broad coverage of the topic considered and for its presentation from different points of view.
Projects theme orientation
Developing of technologies of oil gas processing at the extent of 1-10 billion m3 a year, acceptable for using on low-tonnage block-modular devices straight on the deposit:
1. oil gas refinement from hydrogen disulfide and mercaptans;
2. oil gas separation;
3. oil gas processing into gas synthesis;
4. gas-chemical technologies of processing oil gas into liquid synthetical fuel;
5. energy using of oil gas;
6. other ways of oil gas cost-effective using
To the participation in the Program are allowed: projects, researches and analytical works, including undergraduate and graduate theses
Group of experts
Group of experts is created with the purpose of defining the topics of the contest, selection, estimating the best works and identifying the winners according to the methods and criteria of works estimation, determined by the Statement given.
The group of experts is formed from engineers of the area by the contest initiators. The quantity of members of the group is odd-numbered and consists of 7 or more members.
The decisions are taken by a simple majority of all the present.
Works acceptance
The terms of handing in the works
