Drill cuttings control system in oil and gas companies

Abstract

The problem of ensuring environmental safety in the handling of drilling waste oil production is relevant throughout the world, but is particularly acute in Russia in almost every oil-producing region. The importance of the problem is determined not only by a significant amount, but also by the negative impact of oil waste on virtually all components of the natural environment. As a result of their impact, there is a significant change in the natural state of the geoecological environment, a decrease in the natural protection of groundwater, activation of geochemical and geomechanical processes, and a change in the natural microbiocenosis. The threatening growth of hazardous oil waste accumulated annually in the absence of the necessary scale of their utilization leads to the seizure of land resources for long periods. At the same time, oil waste belongs to the secondary material resources and by its chemical composition and useful properties can be used in the national economy instead of primary raw materials
