The article delves into the modern problem of oilfield equipment corrosion and anticorrosion techniques. The authors of the article pursued the goal of generalisation of amassed data and information about problems and perspectives of anticorrosion techniques; and tried to analyse current factual material about anticorrosion protection of the Karakuduk oilfield equipment.On the basis of multiyear functioning of the Karakuduk oilfield facility, from the beginning of commercial production in 1998, planned by NIPImunaigaz Research Institute (Aktau, the Republic of Kazakhstan) in 1996, a brief overview on primary causes of oilfield equipment corrosion was made and an array of substantial implications in the functioning of oilfield equipment caused by corrosion was pointed out.The most preeminent and effective applicable anticorrosion techniques were scrutinised. Some information about peculiar features of anticorrosion operations carried out on the Karakuduk oilfield and designed for the anticipation and deflation of the influence of corrosive processes on the key oilfield equipment of various systems: the reservoir pressure maintenance system, the oil production system, the oil gathering system, and the oil treatment system, was sequentially presented. The order of corrosion control was described. Qualitative conclusions about the effectiveness of anticorrosion preemptive measures were made; also some recommendations concerning the choice of anticorrosion techniques were given.

Water erosion is the most essential reason of destruction of soils in the whole world. So, in Asia, from the 747 million hectares of earth suffering from erosion, 60% correspond to water erosion; in Africa from 497 million, 46%; in South America, from 243 millions, 51%; in Europe, from 219 million, 53%; 106 millions in a North and Central America, Bifani (1984). The same author specifies that, the phenomenon of erosion is closely related to the phenomenon of settling. The process of water erosion is usually measured on volume alluviums. The Rivers Ganges, Brahmaputra and Huang He, transport 1451, 726 and 1887 million tons annually, respectively, as compared to the rivers Mississippi, Amazon and Nile, that carry only 97, 63 and 31 tons on the square kilometer of basin (Holeman, 1968) [9].Erosion of soil in Ecuador is a serious ecological problem that affects greater part of country in one or another degree. The use of methods of prognostication of washing off of superficial fertile layer of soils from fallouts did not get wide use, as numerous researches were directed to on a quantitative estimation speed of erosion for the different types of land-tenure in the off-shore zones of river basins, and only not many were concentrated on prognostication of erosive processes on all territory. In 1986 the Ecuadorian Center of Geographical Researches (CEDIG), for the first time conducted the row of the researches related to the capture of common data about the problems of erosion in a country [4].In this paper, based on actual data on rainfall in 51 years and the composition of the soils, was carry out the estimation of potential water erosion for Hydrographic Demarcation of Manabi (Ecuador).

Information about slag-alkali binders and the experience of their application in construction of Russia is provided in this article. Structures, types and properties of slag-alkali concrete, and also a benefit the slag-alkali binders over a portland cement are reflected. At the end of article conclusions by results of using materials based on slag-alkali binders in various construction objects and the analysis of properties the slag-alkali binders concrete are drawn.

The article considers the demands of ensuring the anty-terrorist protection of diplomatic complexes consisting of different types of buildings. As result of analyses systems and means for ensuring the anty-terrorist security is recommended some changes planning squares. It was proposed general planning schemas for considering problems for place systems and means for ensuring the anty-terrorist security diplomatic objects

The production or use of vegetable and mineral oils in industrial processes is one of the characteristics of industrial buildings. Negative impact of vegetable, mineral oil and petroleum products on concrete and reinforced concrete leads to decrease of reliability of bearing constructions of industrial buildings for appropriate purposes.The results of experimental study of influence of mineral and vegetable oil on the concrete presented. The relationship between the properties of deformation of concrete and viscosity of mineral and vegetable oils installed.The results of the study can be used in the safety assessment of industrial buildings.

Greenhouse industry around the world is actively introducing innovative technology. The suggested way to improve the cost efficiency of greenhouses is to use power supply systems, including heat pumps. The technology of installation and its calculations of heat pumps is well determined at present and widely used for heating houses and other premises. The paper presents the analysis of application of heat pump, working in conjunction with a heat engine for energy supply of greenhouses. We selected gas-piston engine capacity 315 kW of the company “Zvezda-Energetika” and the heat pump capacity of 523 kW of the company “Menergy” in our study. The results are: energy savings compared with traditional energy supply system of the greenhouse if using only the heat pump is 25%; if using a gas engine with heat recovery is 32%; when combined gas engine and TNU to 60%.
