Details on works performed

In 2020, using the equipment of the "Exploration and Production of Hydrocarbons" Shared Use Center, 5 research contracts were executed with the following goals:

• Carrying out research tests of ejector systems for gas production in fields with hard-to-recover and unconventional hydrocarbon reserves; Experimental studies of multiphase pumps;
• Studies of the mineralogical composition of rocks by X-ray diffractometry;
• Study of rocks using X-ray tomography;
• Study of void space by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive microprobe.
• Also on the equipment of the Center for Collective Use, graduate students conduct experiments within the framework of dissertation research; classes are held with students and undergraduates.
