Gazprom Processing employees successfully performed at the Corporate League

Gazprom VNIIGAZ hosted the Gazprom Corporate League of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship in Moscow. 94 young employees of subsidiaries and organizations of the global energy company, including representatives of Gazprom Refining, took part in the competition to solve problems using the situational analysis method.

The contestants had to develop strategies for designing a digital twin of a gas-producing enterprise. The projects were evaluated by an expert commission consisting of the organizers of the event, Gazprom VNIIGAZ, the administration and subsidiaries of Gazprom PJSC, as well as representatives of universities.

As a result, the title of the laureate was awarded to the Almost Einsteins team, headed by Mikhail Vazhenin, the leading technologist of production No. 1. Surgut ZSK. The team consisted of seven people, including representatives of Gazprom Pererabotka Blagoveshchensk and Gazprom Dobycha Shelf Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk.

"A digital twin is a virtual model of any objects, systems, or processes. It faithfully reproduces the form and actions of the original and is synchronized with it. The purpose of creating a doppelganger is to be able to simulate an installation in different conditions, taking into account development scenarios and possible errors," explained Mikhail Vazhenin.

Gazprom Pererabotka was also represented at the champion by production mechanic No. 1. Sergey Khafizov of the Surgut ZSK, Anton Tatzhikov, operator of technological installations of production No. 2 of the Astrakhan GPP, Kristina Zemlyakova, engineer of the Department of Geology, Licensing and Subsoil Use, and Kirill Popov, chief specialist of the training and production center.

"Participation in the championship is a unique opportunity to learn about promising areas in the oil and gas industry, to test your strengths and capabilities in a critical situation. I was glad to take part in such an event, as well as to meet our colleagues from different parts of Russia!", Kristina Zemlyakova shared her impressions.
