The role and place of scientific and design organizations of the shipbuilding industry in the scientific support of offshore field development projects

Abstract

The article deals with the role and place of scientific and design organizations in the Russian shipbuilding industry. Several companies that are directly involved in scientific and scientific-technical support of the shipbuilding and oil and gas industries are presented as examples. The companies considered in the paper make a tangible contribution to the complex processes of offshore fields development, as well as control the safety of works performed on the continental shelf fields. In modern conditions, the results of the activities of the companies presented in this article are critical in terms of ensuring import independence of the Russian Federation.

In addition, the paper provides information on Russian multidisciplinary research and industry centers, as well as on technological research centers of domestic oil and gas companies. Special attention is paid to the description of the functional areas of such centers, which provides an insight into their role, tasks and significance in the context of a rapidly changing market and new technological challenges.

The study draws conclusions on how effective interaction between different scientific and design organizations contributes to achieving high results in research and in the development of innovative technologies in such important sectors of the economy as shipbuilding and fuel and economic complex. Integration of the results of joint activities of scientific and production enterprises can serve as an important factor contributing to sustainable development and technological progress of the Russian Federation in shipbuilding and oil and gas production.
