The Concept of Autonomous Oil and Gas-Condensate Field of Gazpromneft-Yamal

BACKGROUND OF THE PROGRAM Gazpromneft-Yamal LLC (until 2016 – Gazprom Neft Novy Port LLC) is an associated company of Gazprom Neft. The company was established in 2011 within the Novoportovskoye oil and gas-condensate field development project. Novoportovskoye is one of the largest oil and gas-condensate fields under development on the Yamal Peninsula. The Novoportovskoye oil and gas-condensate field is located at southeastern part of the Yamal Peninsula, the field lies 250 km north of Nadym and 30 km from the Gulf of Ob (Fig.1). Recoverable reserves are estimated at over 250 million tonnes of oil and condensate, and over 320 billion cubic meters of gas. Business transformation today is an integral part of the development and maintenance of the competitiveness of any company. Gazpromneft is continuously working to improve the efficiency of existing production, to introduce new technologies and digital transformation. In 2019, we launched the ‘Asset of the Future’ Program aimed at ensuring efficiency growth of upstream assets by transfer to a new operating model and maximizing the digital solutions value and predictive analytics implementation. As part of the development of the ‘Asset of the Future’ Program, we shifted focus on improving the efficiency of the field processes, building correlation between manufacturing and office processes. Therefore, Gazpromneft-Yamal launched the Program ‘The Autonomous Oil and Gas-Condensate Field’.
