0.04 points separated Arkhangelsk students from the final of the CASE-IN championship

On April 18, the semi-final of the Student League of the XI International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" in the field of "Oil and gas business" took place. The team of the Northern (Arctic) Federal University at the semi—finals, as winners of the qualifying stage of the championship, was represented by students of the Higher School of Energy, Oil and Gas - the Four Anchors team.

The participants in the Oil and Gas Business had to develop cost-effective technologies for producing liquefied petroleum gases from by-products of oil extraction and refining, gas condensate, natural gas purification and other sources at oil and gas fields in the East Siberian region, as well as offer profitable uses for liquefied petroleum gases.

A team consisting of students Denis Kuryatkov, Vladislav Maksakov, Damir Takiulin and Gleb Larionov analyzed Eastern Siberia in terms of the strategic plans and opportunities of YATEK, Gazprom and the INC Group of companies to develop the region's gas potential. The result of the work was a logistical and technological solution for the production and transportation of liquefied petroleum gas. The students made a forecast of LPG consumption in the foreign and domestic markets, calculated the capital and operating costs of companies, as well as the economic feasibility. The team also analyzed the possible risks of the case and considered possible environmental problems and options for minimizing them.

The Four Anchors team lacked 0.04 points to reach the finals of the championship, which will be held in Moscow at the end of May and will bring together the strongest youth engineering teams from Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus.
