ABSTRACT
Modern problems of exploitation of oil and gas condensate fields necessitate technological breakthrough and reorientation of the economy on the innovation-oriented path of development. This is especially important in the conditions of growing geopolitical loneliness of Russia; local military conflicts on the territories of oil and gas producing countries; strengthening of sectoral sanctions; lack of access to investment resources for the implementation of major projects, climate change. The most effective way to solve these problems are the tools of intellectualization at all levels of the oil and gas production chain. Despite the fact that the issues of technical efficiency of intellectualization have already been well studied, in this article we studied the impact of digitalization on improving the efficiency of operations and reducing costs by rationalizing energy management, reliable means of communication in the field of repair of fixed assets, improving the efficiency and representativeness of the flow of information in various segments of the regional (Orenburg) oil and gas complex. The authors, taking into account fifty years of experience in the operation of the Orenburg field, identified factors affecting the effectiveness of production at the stage of falling production; developed the necessary tools of intellectualization and evaluated the effectiveness of their implementation.
