Annotation:

The article presents the results of a pilot project implementation that envisages creation of a digital instrument based on machine learning algorithms in order to predict emergency incidents at injection wells. The approaches to a database formation for a machine learning model by differentiating and converting a number of parameters into integral values are described. The considered case is an example of the application of a machine learning model as a predictive analytics tool for optimizing the costs of an oil and gas producing enterprise associated with repair work on injection wells. The reliability of the forecast obtained using the created model was confirmed during a scheduled inspection of tubing in 2023 at a pilot site of one of the company’s territorial production enterprises.
