Current state and prospects for the development of smart field technologies (general review)

This article provides a brief analysis of the current state of the problem of creating the scientific foundations for the "smart field" concept which is considered as a system. It is noted that the objectives according to this concept are accomplished in four stages. Using the experience of various companies as examples, the results of this system functioning are given. In terms of support, the "Smart Field" system mainly includes three subsystems: information support, mathematical support and software, and organizational support. The obtained information allows you to make operational and correct management decisions, to ensure effective planning and implementation of geological and technical measures, repair and maintenance of equipment. In general, the focal point in the system is decision-making. At the same time, decisions are made under conditions of uncertainty. The development of the scientific foundations of the system therefore also includes the analysis of uncertainties which can be of a various nature.
