The project is being implemented in accordance with the Action Plan aimed at popularizing the working and engineering professions, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated March 5, 2015 No. 366-R.
The aim of the project is to identify and support the most promising students of specialized universities, promote their acquisition of practical knowledge, experience and new competencies, enhance the image of an employee of the fuel and energy complex and related industries, popularize engineering and technical education and form a personnel reserve.
The representative of the organizing committee of the Championship, Irakli Khelaya, opened the work of the competition. He noted that this year's championship is being held for the 5th year in a row and is one of the most effective platforms for promoting the development of the popularization of engineering. Irakli Khelaya also emphasized the scale of the introduction of the engineering championship into the educational processes of the Russian Federation, with the support of 7 Federal Ministries and departments. The opening of the qualifying stage was attended by Rustam Mukhamadeev, Deputy General Director for Human Resources and Social Development of PJSC Tatneft, Andrey Podovalov, Deputy Head of the Executive Committee of the Almetyevsk Municipal District for Economics, Robert Nurgaliev, Acting Rector of the AGNI, honored guests and strategic partners of the Almetyevsk State Petroleum Institute.
The championship was held in the format of a face-to-face competition among young engineers of the AGNI direction - Oil and Gas business. 12 teams of 3-4 people participated. The students presented an engineering case on the topic: "Efficient production", where they examined the real production problems of the Novo -Elkhovskoye oil field development. The teams presented their vision of solving problems, offered options for promising areas of technology development and improving the energy efficiency of mechanized mining. Each proposed a case solution that was economically sound and provided the maximum economic effect. The young engineers provided calculations on the justification of the measures necessary for the implementation and identified sources of financing and return on investment.
The evaluation of the solutions of the engineering and technical cases was carried out by an expert commission with the participation of representatives of the authorities, the partner of the Championship, PJSC Tatneft, and the teaching staff of the university.
The jury members awarded the teams points according to the following criteria:
-Technology - applicability in the context of the case and the task, assessment of technological efficiency and the effect of implementation in natural terms, the validity of the proposed solutions and risk assessment;
- Economics - assessment of economic efficiency and the effect of proposed solutions, risk assessment and economic justification, identification of sources of financing;
- Originality and novelty of the solution, innovativeness - the use of new technologies in the solution, the availability of ideas that expand the usual point of view on the problem, the applicability and relevance of the proposed idea / innovation in the context of the task;
- Presentation and presentation – presentation format and design, public speaking skills, quality of the report, literacy of answers to experts' questions.
At the end of the championship, Vice-rector for Research Irina Guskova noted that the engineering solutions presented were of high quality and mature, thanked the participants, wished everyone good luck and new achievements in the oil and gas industry.
According to the results of the international engineering championship "Case-in", the prizes were divided as follows:
1st place - "Black Gold Union"
2nd place - Petrolife
3rd place - TAToiL
The winner of the championship is the team "Black Gold Union" They will compete for the title of the best engineering student team and for the opportunity to complete internships and internships in leading industry companies. The Championship final will be held in Moscow on May 30-31, 2017 years.
