SPbGASU students brought bronze medals from the CASE-IN championship

The final of the IX International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", which took place from May 31 to June 2 in Moscow, brought together more than 600 students and young professionals from 40 regions of Russia and Belarus. SPbGASU was represented by two teams – "Guys from our yard" and "PEAK".

The organizers of the championship are the Reliable Shift Foundation, the Non-profit Partnership Youth Forum of Mining Leaders, ANO Russia – Land of Opportunities and AstraLogica LLC. The competitions of the ninth season were organized in four leagues: the School League, the Student League, the League of Young Professionals and the Special League. The participants developed case solutions for the nuclear industry, fuel and energy, mineral resource complexes, and related industries. The general theme of the season was sustainable development.

"The guys from our yard" became the bronze medalists of this large-scale competition in the field of "Project Engineering". The team was led by a graduate student Artemy Taranov, which dealt with organizational and economic issues. Student Arina Miklyaeva She performed the duties of a process engineer and solved engineering tasks related to the development and operation of an oil and gas field. Student Dmitry Blinov He acted as an ecologist, eliminated environmental and safety problems at the enterprise. Student Anna Fedorova She was engaged in tasks related to the specifics of the development of an oil and gas field in the Far North. The work of the team was supervised by an associate professor of the Department of Geotechnics, Ph.D. Sergey Lanko.

The aim of the participants was to propose options for introducing digital technologies into the design and construction of an oil and gas production plant in the Far North, calculate the environmental and economic effects of such an introduction, and compare it with traditional technologies. It was necessary to consider the area of the plant, the organization of construction, the supply of equipment, the number of employees and their qualifications.

The team came to the conclusion that the economic effect of the introduction of 4D modeling technology will reduce the construction time and, consequently, its cost. The risk of accidents will decrease, the number of errors at various stages of construction will be reduced, the qualifications of workers and the competitiveness of the company will increase.

"We approached the issue from the point of view of import substitution policy and focused on domestic software. All the experts noted that this was one of the main advantages of our team.", – Captain Artemiy Taranov told the story.

The bronze medalists received certificates, gifts and an offer to complete an internship at the facilities of the NIPIGAZ company.

SPbGASU also became a laureate of the Energy of Education competition for the successful organization and holding of the qualifying stage of the championship.
