The Effect Of Implementing The Energy Saving Program Of RN-Yuganskneftegaz Amounted To 1.8 Billion Rubles
RN-Yuganskneftegaz, the largest oil-producing enterprise of Rosneft, saved 398 million kWh of electricity following the implementation of an energy saving program in 2023. In monetary terms, the effect amounted to about 1.8 billion rubles.
Increasing the operating efficiency of production assets is one of the key priorities of Rosneft’s strategy. The company’s enterprises systematically implement measures aimed at increasing energy efficiency, reducing energy consumption, optimizing electrical loads and thermal processes.
RN-Yuganskneftegaz introduces advanced technological solutions to optimize the operating mode of production facilities, and also modernizes pumping equipment at its well stock. Savings from the introduction of energy-efficient electric motors in the production stock in 2023 amounted to more than 42 million kWh. It was possible to reduce energy consumption by another 7.5 million kWh thanks to the modernization of centrifugal sectional pumps in the reservoir pressure maintenance system.
A significant contribution to saving resources is increasing the efficiency of electrical networks by reducing the flow of reactive power, which leads to losses in electrical lines, voltage drops and sags. To reduce the flow, filter-compensating devices are used.
As a result of modernization of the lighting system of RN-Yuganskneftegaz, more than 90% of lighting fixtures were replaced with LED ones. The effect of the implementation of this program exceeded 30 million kWh.
RN-Yuganskneftegaz confirmed the certificates of compliance of the Energy Management System with the requirements of the GOST R ISO 50001-2012 standard and the requirements of the international standard ISO 50001:2018. Certification confirms transparency and objectivity in assessing energy efficiency, reducing environmental impact and preserving natural resources, and reducing costs. Thanks to the implementation of the energy saving program, greenhouse gas emissions in electricity consumption in 2023 were reduced by 3%.
An important component of the energy efficiency program is to improve the energy consumption culture of enterprise employees. In 2023, more than 500 specialists were trained and became acquainted with the best practices in the field of conservation and rational use of fuel and energy resources.
The company monitors energy consumption and analyzes new opportunities for further improving the energy efficiency of production.
