The Tyumen Industrial University team has reached the finals of the International Engineering Case-in Championship and will compete in Moscow for the title of the best in the oil and gas league among 20 Russian universities.
According to the results of the qualifying stage of the Case-in championship, which was held at TSU, the first place was taken by a team from the Siberian Light Institute of Geology and Oil and Gas Production. The winning team includes students of the Department of "Development and Operation of Oil and gas fields" IGiN Maria Romanova, Natalia Polyakova, Anna Evdokimova, graduate student of the department Dmitry Ostapchuk.
The second and third places were taken by the Regroup mobilee teams (consisting of students of the Institute of Transport Albert Brand, Natalia Mostovaya, Lilit Khachatryan and the Institute of Geology and Oil and Gas Production Andrey Podshivalov) and the Oil Kings (representatives of the IGIN Drilling Department Dmitry Leontiev, Alexander Dobrochasov, Evgeny Russian, Maria Polyantseva). A team of junior students from the Y. G. Hervier Oil and Gas College, the Oil Team, consisting of Alexey Grigoriev, Artyom Kalashnikov, Marat Abdullin and Vladimir Petrovsky, received a separate expert assessment.
M is the largest practice-oriented project, held in the format of a competition for solving engineering cases (practical tasks) among students of specialized universities in Russia and the CIS in the specialties of fuel and energy and mineral resources complexes, held for the fourth year in a row. In 2015, it was included in the Russian government's plan to popularize engineering specialties, and the cases that the students solve have become a recognized element of practice-oriented learning, the university's press service reports.
Sixteen teams spent 10 days solving engineering cases based on materials from industry companies in the fuel and energy sector, and defended their work for six minutes in front of representatives of the region's leading oil companies. Denis Afonin, Scientific Secretary of Tyumen Petroleum Research Center LLC, was elected Chairman of the commission. The jury included representatives of SIBUR LLC, RN-Yuganskneftegaz LLC, KogalymNIPIneft, and others.
"The work was of a very different level: someone performed it with less diligence, but some guys tried to work out the topic as much as possible and present the material with high quality," said Dmitry Anashkin, manager of the SIBUR Production Center. - There were technologies that could actually be applied in production. The works that won are very worthy, I liked them. It was interesting to see how the guys think, their motivation, what goals they set for themselves and what they want to achieve by participating in this competition. I wanted the guys to understand the important educational component, that this is not just a competition, but their opportunity to gain real-world work experience. I tried to arouse their interest so that when they came home, they would want to look at information about oil companies that exist in Russia and gain additional knowledge in some areas."
As part of solving the cases, the participants proposed ways to increase oil recovery and oil production in the fields of such regions as the Volga region, the East Siberian region and the Arctic.
