Fedoseev), “Floating LNG plants” (G. Kamensky), “Systems of underwater oil and gas production ” (S. Dryakhlov) and others. Also, as part of cultural events, they visited the museum “Russia is my history” and the technopark “Kvantorium”. The students also had the opportunity to visit the fields of “Surgutneftegaz”.The final chord was the participation of students in the fifth international youth scientific and practical forum “Oil Capital” in Surgut.

This trip served as a good school for gaining knowledge and skills to participate in the educational project “EnerGenius”, which helped to find new friends and like-minded people, to feel like an important part of a large multinational family.

We are grateful to the leadership of the Branch and our mentors for the opportunity.
