Dear friends and colleagues!

That's the end of our two-day scientific and technical marathon. The conference was attended by representatives of large and small mining companies, manufacturers of pipe products, research centers and leading polytechnic universities of the country. I hope that all the participants of our event received a lot of useful theoretical and practical information.

The main purpose of our annual conference is to create a platform for communication between metallurgists, oil and gas workers, manufacturers of technological equipment, university scientists and specialists from engineering centers. The main issue on the agenda is what is corrosion and how to deal with it. In our opinion, the goal has been achieved.

On the first day of the conference, issues of the use of high-strength corrosion-resistant materials, materials for the manufacture of fountain fittings for gas wells, corrosion-resistant materials for downhole (submersible) equipment, bimetallic pipes, protective coatings, inhibition, and mechanisms of inhibitory protection of metal surfaces were discussed.

Special attention was paid to the features of autoclave corrosion tests of various grades of steel for difficult operating conditions (temperature, pressure, composition of media (CO2, H2S, chlorides), the specifics of conducting corrosion tests of samples with a directional and cladding layer, assessment of the tendency of steels to local corrosion in H2S and CO2-containing media.

The first day of the conference ended with a walking tour of the historical center of Samara, which has preserved the merchant buildings of the end. XIX – early XX century.

The guests were able to feel the atmosphere of the old streets, walk along the main street of Samara at the end of the 19th century, which was called the "exhibition of public life" for a reason, visited ancient courtyards and modern art spaces. Even the autumn rain, which arrived at the end of the tour, did not spoil the mood of the tourists.

The second day of the conference was also held in a working atmosphere.

Modern methodologies for forecasting the technical condition of ground infrastructure facilities of oil and gas producing enterprises, modeling stress-strain conditions to assess the risks of premature failure of elements of oilfield equipment, features of corrosion monitoring in modern conditions, and forecasting the corrosive aggressiveness of operating environments were actively discussed.

In our opinion, the event turned out to be dynamic, interesting and, hopefully, useful. This year, for the first time, representatives of the Tatneft and Aramco Innovations Group of companies took part in the conference. The IT-Service team, the organizers of the conference, would like to thank all the speakers for their significant contribution to the content of the program. We thank the conference participants for their activity and tricky questions. We are always open to creating new communication formats. We are waiting for suggestions and comments. And of course, we are waiting for everyone in the first decade of September 2026 for the 10th anniversary scientific and technical conference.

See you soon!
