Technologies for Construction of Oil and Gas Complex Structures in Conditions of Complex Subsoils
The purpose of the study is to establish the possibilities of ground construction of oil and gas pipelines (OGP) in permafrost (PF) conditions. The objectives are to substantiate the priority need for research on the technologies for the construction of OGP in the conditions of PF in relation to other types of complex soils; to generalize the problems of construction and operation of structures in the PF conditions; to identify the advantages of the ground construction of OGP. The hypothesis is as follows: the ground construction of OGP has prospects in the conditions of the PF. The results are as follows: the problems of long-term operation of OGP during their construction in the PF conditions are given; features and problems of underground and aboveground construction are presented; the expediency of ground construction of OGP in conditions of difficult subsoil is shown.
