Iran, like other Caspian states, is aware of the need to protect and protect the Caspian marine environment, on which the state of the coastal provinces and the well-being of the local population depend. There are examined the main legal acts of Iran related to the management of the quality of water resources, the protection of the marine environment from pollution, the protection of biological resources. Iran’s domestic environmental legislation was formed in the second half of the 20th century, but the most important regulations for the protection of the environment of the Caspian Sea were adopted during the last 25 years. In general, the national legislation of Iran is aimed at protecting the environment, while providing the population with water resources and protecting surface and groundwater from pollution, including the marine waters of the Caspian Sea, is especially important for the republic. The direction of Iran’s environmental legislation is consistent with the Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea of 2018, which has not yet been ratified by the republic. In this Convention, the Caspian states have undertaken to protect and preserve the ecological system of the Caspian Sea and all its components, not to carry out activities that damage biological diversity, and also to bear responsibility for damage caused to the ecological system of the Caspian Sea. In the next decade, Iran plans to prepare a national action plan for the republic on protecting the marine environment, biodiversity, combating marine pollution, public participation and capacity building, as well as increasing coastal and marine protected areas, which gives some hope for the ratification of the Convention on the Legal status of the Caspian Sea.","PeriodicalId":237767,"journal":{"name":"Oil and gas technologies and environmental safety","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117221090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The initiators of installing the artificial reefs in recent years have been the oil companies operating in the Caspian Sea, while the main goal was to improve the quality of the marine environment by increasing the self-cleaning ability of the marine ecosystem due to the development of filter organisms forming dense clusters on the surfaces of artificial substrates. There are presented the results of studies of the qualitative and quantitative composition of zooperiphyton of artificial reefs installed in the northern part of the Caspian Sea at the depths of 4-10 m. Samples were taken from the concrete artificial substrates. The studies were carried out by the conventional research methods. As a result, there were obtained the data on species composition of the zooocenosis of fouling and their quantitative characteristics. In zooperiphyte samples there were found 11 species from 4 classes of invertebrates: Crustacea, Mollusca, Polychaeta, and Hydrozoa. Of this number of species, the largest abundance and biomass were formed by Balanus improvisus (Balanidae) and Mytilaster lineatus (Mytilidae). The level of development of these two species determined the general indicators of zoocenosis of artificial reef fouling. The remaining species had low indicators of quantitative development, but were important for the fouling biodiversity of the Caspian Sea. There has been defined the influence of the depth of artificial reef installation on the development of fouling organisms, found their higher quantitative characteristics compared to zoobenthos, and the structure-forming species of zooperiphyton in the survey area.","PeriodicalId":237767,"journal":{"name":"Oil and gas technologies and environmental safety","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129213193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At concentration of 5 g/kg, along with increasing germination, the subsequent death of seedlings (2%) is observed. And at concentration of 7.5 g/kg, in addition to a decreasing germination, there is registered an increasing death (4%) and specific morphological changes (signs of chlorosis). It was stated that the optimal concentration of contamination is 5 g/kg, at which the percentage of germination increases, the length of the stem grows and the length of the root decreases slightly. At such level of pollution plants are not subject to significant negative changes (death losses are minimal - 1 seedling), which indicates the tolerance and adaptability of this object to certain concentrations and makes it possible to use it in the future as an object of phytoremediation.","PeriodicalId":237767,"journal":{"name":"Oil and gas technologies and environmental safety","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131005298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four main categories of protection of the Pleistocene aquifer within the studied area from technogenic pollution have been identified. Their percentage ratio within the studied area was determined, in particular, the least protected aquifer (category 1) is predominant. The abandoned deep wells are localized in relation to the protection categories of the Pleistocene aquifer.

Mixing the petroleum products can be accompanied by a non-linear behavior accompanied by synergistic and antagonistic effects. Understanding of the oil and oil products as oil dispersed systems, the specific features of intermolecular interaction largely clarify their behavior, changes in properties, chemistry and mechanism of reactions occurring in them. Petroleum systems are polydisperse, in which the components can coexist in different aggregate states, and the size of the dispersed phase can vary over a wide range. They consist of diverse compounds that differ in properties, structure, shapes and sizes of molecules. Due to the variety of components that make up oil disperse systems the intermolecular interactions determine such a feature of the behavior of oil systems as the phenomenon of self-organization and structuring, which manifest themselves when external influences change and are sensitive to them. They are characterized by the absence of charge and a minimum of charge-polarization interactions of molecules, and intermolecular interactions are largely determined by the presence of paramagnetic molecules. The uncompensated spin of macromolecular compounds due to the steric obstacles, a homolytic dissociation, and the presence of microelement compounds ensure the paramagnetism of petroleum dispersed systems. This leads to developing the stable associative combinations and the formation of complex structural units capable of redistributing components and layers between phases under the influence of external effects. Comprehensive analysis and unanimity of views on the physical and chemical interactions of the components of oil systems leading to a change in their structure, open up fundamentally new opportunities for intensifying processes in the practice of production, transportation and processing of hydrocarbon raw materials and the use of petroleum products, and also allow predicting the behavior of oil systems in processes which they are participating.","PeriodicalId":237767,"journal":{"name":"Oil and gas technologies and environmental safety","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124215669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An important part of the energy sector of the Russian Federation is the fuel and energy complex, which is based on oil production. Oil in its pure form contains many impurities (water, sand, gas, pieces of rock, etc.). In order to meet the standards, oil needs to go through many refining processes. Heat exchangers play an important role at the stage of oil refining. It has been found that in the course of work scale, various deposits, pollution are formed in the heat-exchange equipment. Due to these formations, the heat exchanger loses its heating properties. It is possible to prevent the formation of deposits by using ultrasonic method. Structurally, the ultrasonic unit is a pulse generator with two magnetic transducers. When sonicating an oil-water emulsion with ultrasound, destruction occurs, splitting the crystals of hardness salts formed in the heated emulsion. Ultrasonic treatment, propagating over the surface, prevents the formation of scale deposits on it. Ultrasonic treatment is the most effective method for controlling the rheological properties of heavy high-viscosity oils from both technological and environmental and economic points of view. The results of the analysis of the ultrasonic method are presented, its advantages and disadvantages are listed.

There are presented the main characteristics of the lithological composition and filtration-capacitance properties of the carbonate productive reservoir C2b of the left-bank part of the AGCF, described the specific features of their formation. One of the important features of the productive carbonate reservoir of the left-bank part of the AGCF is the anisotropy of filtration-capacitance properties in different directions. Special attention was paid to the description of horizontal and vertical fracturing, and post-sedimentation processes. There is proposed a probable mechanism of fracturing in areas of high occurrence of productive strata. The problem of well flooding is of great importance for the development of AGCF. Different factors of geological and technical order were investigated (the position of drilled faces and perforation intervals/open barrel relative to the position of the gas-water contact). No regularities were revealed. Based on the study of field data, zones of vertical fracturing have been identified, which caused the flooding of wells. It is possible to map watering zones according to the structural parameters of Bashkir deposits at the highest roof marks.
