The article discusses the planning and commissioning of an autonomous field located on permafrost. Most of the oil and gas fields are located in permafrost areas. The development of such deposits is costly, as it creates the need to prevent the thawing of permafrost. Commissioning works are the final stage of construction and installation works. The CW is difficult in conditions of permafrost. In permafrost conditions, problems may arise with starting the installed equipment.

This article describes the territories of the northern regions of the Russian Federation, the problems of the distribution of permafrost soils (MMG), and discusses the difficulties encountered in the construction of roads in difficult geocryological conditions. The introduction of heat-insulating layers of foam glass rubble into the design of pavement is proposed. The basic physical and technical characteristics have been analyzed, and the key properties of foam glass rubble are determined. The article describes the process of production of foam glass, the advantages that allow the use of this material in various fields of construction. Typical road structures made of soil are considered. A comparison is made of a typical construction of pavement made traditionally from soil (high embankment) with a construction with a heat-insulating layer of foam-glass rubble. The advantages have been listed when using structures using foam glass rubble in road construction.

Over the last years there is much concern about the quality of execution and selection of the actual documentation in the registration proceeding of the facilities construction turn-over package. There is no exact consolidated catalog of as-built documentation in the new normative and technical literature. Each executive document represents as an application to various sources of regulatory and technical literature. Therefore, the article presents a divided into chapters detailed catalog of as-built documentation for the oil and gas facility construction. An explanation is given for each chapter for which purpose it is formed and what function it has in the general package of as-built documentation. The main aspects of the as-built documentation execution are considered, a list of the documentation and some recommendations on the facility commissioning to the Client are given. Additionally, there is a suggested recommendation on the execution and filling of the package (folders) of the construction as-built documentation. This article recommends a common procedure for filling out and arrangement of the document flow of PTW package and as-built documentation of construction and installation works and the commissioning of the capital construction facilities. The article clearly describes the goals: - Improvement of the quality of as-built documentation execution; - Organization of the process of preparation, making up and verification of the package contents and quality of turnover documentation for construction and installation works; - Conducing the as-built documentation to a uniform style, which provides a high degree of the documents identification and control over the execution of the quality of preparation and completeness of the turnover documentation for works and construction projects; - Making-up of the objects reporting documentation; - Making-up of a document collection of the objects and work performed; - Establishing of universal explanation of the normative requirements by the all participants in the construction process. The focal point of this article is to provide recommendations on the execution of the turnover documentation for the facility construction, as well as improving the quality of as-built documentation execution. This article is action-oriented and is aimed to help young professional of the production and technical department of contracting companies, specialists of the Capital Projects Department, construction control and customer companies.

The article reveals the challenges of designing oil and gas sector, associated with large economic costs and shows how to use modern methods of design, namely through the creation of an information model of the project, it is possible to avoid errors at all stages of creation and implementation of the project. Application of information model of the project according to preliminary estimates, could lead to savings of up to 10% of economic resources. Today, many companies have successfully used the BIM model, one of the biggest example is the oil and gas field in Badr.

The article is devoted to the application of unmanned aerial vehicles to obtain the operational information about the status of oil trunk pipelines and areas along them. It is dealt with some of the problems that arise during the operation of the branched trunk pipeline systems. It is described in short the existing methods of monitoring pipelines and disadvantages of their use. The paper proposes the introduction of unmanned aerial vehicles to solve the problems. It is spoken in detail about the main advantages and the characteristics of various types of UAV. The text describes some of the tasks that can be solved with the help of several types of shooting. Also, it is shown a matter of choice between creating its fleet of drones and purchase of services from third party companies. In conclusion, the article points out that use of unmanned aerial vehicles for monitoring of oil trunk pipelines saves money and opens new possibilities for the safe operation of pipeline transport.
