INCREASING THE LEVEL OF ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY OF DRILLING SLUDGE STORAGES

The main sources of soil pollution due to the development of oil and gas fields are analyzed. It is shown that the main sources of oil products entering the soil are sludge accumulators and drilling barns. A new construction of a drilling barn and a scheme of reclamation of the existing ones are proposed. The implementation of such developments will minimize the ingress of oil-containing fluids into the soil and increase the level of environmental safety of oil and gas development processes.
