To Drill or Not to Drill: Development Strategy for the Oil Industry for the Next 10 Years

Despite recent forecasts about the world abandoning the use of oil, global demand has shown steady growth in recent years and has now reached an all-time high of 102 million barrels per day. And it will continue to grow for at least the next 10 years. To cover this growing demand, major investments are needed to create reserve capacity to produce oil around the world. Russia has the unique resource potential to increase production volumes and maintain its role as a leading global supplier. However, this could be difficult to do given the deteriorating mineral resource base and substantial tax burden. Sales markets are also changing, which means that the industry essentially needs to build new infrastructure. How can the Russian oil and gas industry overcome the challenges it is currently facing? How can we continue to balance the interests of the budget and industry in the long term? What development strategy should Russia choose?

Prospects for Climate Neutrality: Energy Transformation Scenarios in the Context of Low-Carbon Development

In recent years, there has been a debate at both the international and national levels about the risks that accompany the climate change that we are currently seeing and what we can expect in the future. The scientific community views climate change as a trend that is only going to increase and has determined the extent of its negative impact on the technical condition of energy infrastructure. The adaptability of critical energy system facilities as well as power grid and utility infrastructure is being disrupted due to the scale of the impact of physical climate risks, particularly given the obvious local changes that we are seeing in meteorological conditions today. In addition, the intensive materialization of transitional climate risks creates uncertainty about how to reduce the impact of manmade activities on climate change. The efforts to decarbonize the energy sector are becoming increasingly obvious, as evidenced by the unprecedented increase in the introduction of renewable energy sources, the use of energy and resource-efficient solutions, as well as the development of approaches that aim to provide solutions as part of the new technological order and within the context of a competitive global energy transition. • What are the current prospects for achieving carbon neutrality? • What barriers exist to the introduction of low-carbon technological solutions? • How can we assess the impact of climate risks on energy infrastructure? • What should be the focus of measures to adapt to the changing climate?

Low-Carbon Energy: The Foundation of a Sustainable Future

In the current geopolitically turbulent conditions, stopping climate change and dealing with energy market imbalances remains a global challenge. Low-carbon energy has the potential to create an ideal energy balance that makes eco-friendly electricity production compatible with price stability, secure power generation, and the sustainable use of exhaustible natural resources. Each region has its own path to clean energy, and the preferred energy mix is determined based on a particular country’s conditions and needs. In addition, many countries in the modern world have fundamentally different capabilities for implementing a full-scale energy transition due to differences in their socioeconomic status and access to modern technologies and innovations. Cooperation between countries, business, and society as a whole is crucial to a successful energy transition. Only by joining forces and exchanging technological solutions, scientific knowledge, and experience can we create the basis for a sustainable future, while preserving the planet and improving the quality of life here. How should cooperation be structured on a global scale to ensure a successful energy transition? Should we completely abandon traditional energy sources? How can we ensure the technological independence of the energy sector? What innovative solutions will ensure an effective energy transition?

The Dawn of the ‘Ash and Slag’ Century: Technological Sovereignty

Over the past five years, the proportion of ash and slag from thermal power plants involved in the stream of commerce in Russia has doubled and currently accounts for about 30% of the total amount generated annually. Russia has set the target of utilizing 50% of ash and slag by 2035. Achieving this target is inextricably linked with the development of technologies to utilize and process ash and slag, as well as system to store and ship them. Technological growth, the development of human capital, an effective regulatory system, and the creation of extensive scientific infrastructure will make it possible to build an entire ecosystem that can utilize secondary energy raw materials. It is crucial to ensure the sustainable development and operation of this new economic sector that is being created, which is dependent on Russia achieving technological sovereignty in the use of secondary energy and industrial raw materials. Ash and slag are actively used in road construction, land reclamation, and the production of building materials. This makes it possible to replace natural resources, which is particularly important in regions that have a shortage of high-quality non-metallic materials (sand, crushed stone, and gravel). How can we ensure the technological sovereignty as well as the stable and economically efficient operation of the secondary energy resource utilization industry? What is the best way to build chains of scientific and industrial cooperation with friendly countries? How can we ensure a balance between the government’s goals in ash and slag utilization and the demands of related industry markets? How should projects be provided with long and cheap loans for technological sovereignty?

Testing Grounds for Artificial Intelligence

Machine learning and artificial intelligence are expected to be introduced in order to achieve digital maturity in key sectors of the economy by 2030. Global trends in the development of such technologies show that they can be effectively applied, including for the creation of digital twins, in many sectors of the economy, which also includes the fuel and energy sector. One example of this is the successful use of AI and cloud computing of big data arrays to optimize operations in geological exploration, drilling, and oil production. However, the oil and gas industry and other sectors of the fuel and energy industry have restrictions on the testing of AI technologies at production facilities, such as technical and regulatory barriers to the introduction of AI solutions, the need for business continuity, and the lack of the ability to conduct testing on operating equipment. These limitations could be mitigated by creating an inter-industry site that can test AI in real conditions. How can we determine whether a technology can be used at an existing fuel and energy facility, and how can we assess the risks involved? What is the ideal and optimal scenario for integrating advanced technologies into the fuel and energy industry, and which ones should be introduced? If an AI testing ground is created, what principle should be used to admit projects to it? How scalable is the practice of setting up AI testing grounds?

Global Energy as the Foundation of Economic Growth and Well-Being: In Search of Balance

Energy is a key factor that dictates how civilizations develop. In the modern world, we cannot imagine our lives without light, heat, smartphones, computers, or travelling by car or plane. For all these things to be manufactured and work properly, we need complex, labour-intensive, and high-tech work in all segments of the fuel and energy industry, from the extraction and processing of energy resources to the direct production and distribution of energy. The unlawful sanctions against Russia and other producer countries have destabilized the entire global energy market, which has led to increased price volatility and local shortages of various types of energy resources. This not only directly affects consumers in the countries that initiated this turmoil, but also in the countries of the Global South that do not support it. It is also slowing down prospects for economic growth and the well-being of the global economy. In these conditions, what tools exist for cooperation between our countries to mitigate the side effects of these processes? What is the future of the global energy industry?
