ANALYSIS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY OF OIL FIELD INFRASTRUCTURE ON THE BASIS OF BIOSPHERE COMPATIBLE CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 3
Abstract
Annotation: Pollution of the aquatic environment with heavy metals has become a global problem lately as they have the ability to bioaccumulate in biosystems, they are indestructible and toxic to organisms. Heavy metals can enter water systems from various natural and man-made sources, including industrial or domestic wastewater, the use of pesticides and inorganic fertilizers, storm water, landfill leaching, shipping and port activities, geological weathering of the earth's crust and atmospheric deposition. Metal contamination can have a devastating effect on the ecological balance of the recipient environment and on the diversity of aquatic organisms. Heavy metal pollutants have a direct impact on fish and shellfish. Thus, they are widely used to assess the state of aquatic ecosystems in relation to chemical pollution. Subject of research: The impact of the construction of oil and gas facilities on the objects of the fauna of the Gulf of Guinea. Objectives: Analysis of the environmental safety of the oilfield infrastructure based on biosphere-compatible construction technologies. Materials and methods: statistical data are processed using the method of correlation analysis; informational modeling of the environmental situation in the Niger Delta area is performed. Results: The impact of oil and gas facilities in the Niger Delta is disastrous for the region: degradation of species biological diversity is observed, environmental safety standards are violated and public health is under the threat, heavy metals are deposited and accumulated in the soil of the coastal zone. High levels of THC in the sediment will be maintained as long as oil continues to be used and oil is being spilt into the environment Conclusions: One of the ways to solve this problem is the use of pipes with higher tensile strength and hardness, which cannot be cut using conventional cutting equipment. Oil companies should also take advantage of the cross-drilling technology to place oil facilities in the field.
