中国石化新闻网讯 据俄罗斯油气网8月18日圣彼得堡报道,俄罗斯第3大石油公司俄罗斯天然气工业石油公司(俄气石油/gazprom Neft)日前与俄罗斯DIAM-AERO公司在列拧格勒州成功测试了一种将用于地球物理勘探作业的新一代超远程无人机。
俄气石油日前成功利用这种测量距离高达150公里的超远程无人机进行了非地震地质勘探。利用这些数据,俄气石油能够获得关于基岩结构的初步信息,这有助于进一步规划油田勘探的后续阶段。这种新型空中装置的开发商已经能够为无人机的工业应用提供全新的技术能力,这符合俄气石油无人机技术中心和公司科技中心的要求。
这款超远程无人机由特殊复合材料制成,在地质调查过程中不会产生任何干扰。超远程无人机的有效载荷可达5公斤,这意味着可以同时进行各种技术操作和各种测量。此外,这种新开发的超远程无人机可以在具有挑战性气候条件的北极和俄罗斯遥远北方的其他地区使用。
开发人员计划为这种新型无人机配备一个垂直起降系统,使其能够兼容任何起降区域,包括越野车的车顶。
使用无人机比使用有人驾驶飞机进行类似勘探作业要便宜2.5到3倍。俄气石油计划在未来几年使用这些超远程无人机进一步提高其在海上和其他无法进入地区的地质调查效率。
俄气石油已经确定了70多种使用无人机系统的不同方案,包括空中区域激光扫描、货物运输以及监控建筑和基础设施状况。事实上,俄气石油三分之二的管道(超过7000公里)现在已部分或完全由飞机型无人机控制。

Gazprom Neft tests an ultra-long-range drone for exploration geophysics
Gazprom Neft, together with Russia’s DIAM-AERO, has successfully tested a new-generation extended-range unmanned aerial vehicle (drone), to be used for geophysical works, in the Leningrad Oblast. This device can cover a distance of 1,200 m - which is 10 times more than models currently used in multi-level magnetic surveying at oil and gas fields. That distance and duration means operations can be undertaken, highly effectively, in remote areas with no surface infrastructure.
Gazprom Neft successfully utilised drons with a range of up to 150 km for non-seismic geological exploration. Using these, the company has been able to obtain initial information on bedrock structure, which facilitates further planning for subsequent stages of field exploration. The developers of this new aerial device have been able to offer brand new technological capabilities for the industrial use of drons consistent with the requirements of Gazprom Neft’s UAV Technology Centre and the company’s Science & Technology Centre.
This ultra-long-range drone is made of special composite materials, which do not give rise to any disturbance during investigations. The device can carry a payload of up to 5 kg, meaning various technological operations and various kinds of measurements can be undertaken, simultaneously. Added to which, this new development can be used under the challenging climatic conditions of the Arcticand other regions of the Russian Far North.
The developers plan to equip a new model of this drone with a vertical take-off and landing system, which will allow the device to be made compatible with any take-off and landing areas, including the roofs of cross-country vehicles.
Using unmanned aircraft comes out about 2.5 to 3 times cheaper than similar operations using manned aircraft. Gazprom Neft plans to use these to further improve the efficiency of its investigations, both offshore and in other inaccessible locations, over the next few years.
Gazprom Neft has identified more than 70 different scenarios for using drone systems, altogether, including in airborne territorial laser-scanning, cargo transportation, and in monitoring construction and infrastructure status. Two thirds of the company’s pipelines, in fact (more than 7,000 km) are now partially or completely controlled using aircraft-type drones.
