The use of associated petroleum gas and the problem of its disposal and processing are being actively discussed, oil and gas companies are inventing new methods. The aim of our research is to consider the use of associated petroleum gas in fields in Eastern Siberia and to compare environmental and economic damage from the use of various methods for disposing of associated petroleum gas. In this article, we reviewed some of the most promising in our opinion methods for processing and disposing of associated petroleum gas, such as deep conversion into gas, flaring, injection into the gas transmission system, reverse injection of associated petroleum gas, and the economic effect of their use. We estimated the environmental damage caused by enterprises and the economic effect of the application for several mining fields. The problem of rational utilization of APG remains acute in a number of regions and companies, especially among small independent producers. 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved.
