The purpose of this study is to analyze the main factors of socialization that affect a person at the stage of admission to a higher education institution. The study is based on a 2020 survey of students of St. Petersburg Mining University. The paper analyzes such factors as family influence, academic performance, changes in the circle of friends, and new conditions. As a result, each of the studied factors was characterized, as well as the phenomenon of value conflict and the possibility to consider high academic performance at university as an indicator of successful socialization were noted.

Prospects of ecological technologies development in the Russian oil industry have been developed in the paper. Reducing the negative impact on the environment is inextricably linked with the development of applied technologies. On the basis of scientific, systematic and comparative analysis we have identified major environmental issues arising from extraction, processing and use of oil and the directions of their solution. The greatest negative impact on the environment is provided by such factors as sludge formation, burning of associated gas, increased accident rate and the use of fuel oil. A number of problems in the field of environmental safety in the oil industry may be avoided by using innovations. In this work, we have assessed the prospects for reducing the negative impact on the environment through the application of modern engineering solutions in the field of ecology. In order to reduce environmental impacts and economic costs, it is primarily proposed to develop technologies in the area of safe waste management, modernization of treatment facilities and prevention of oil and oil products spills.

The article discusses the structure of autonomous electrical systems with an electric drive and an electric energy generation system. An approach is described for assessing the overall efficiency of technological cycle equipment with specification of parameters that must be considered when calculating it. The necessity of taking into account energy efficiency and operability indicators of autonomous electric complexes is substantiated. The effectiveness of the use of autonomous systems decreases throughout the entire life cycle due to wear and tear. As the operability of electromechanical equipment, an indicator of the residual resource is selected. The calculation of the residual resource, with the definition of its boundary values and recommendations for further use. Nominal energy efficiency parameters of autonomous electrotechnical complexes with electric drive deteriorate during operation, which also needs to be taken into account. To simplify the assessment of the operational state of electromechanical equipment, a state diagram is presented that allows you to track the dynamics of degradation of individual nodes. Taking into account the described indicators and means of control, it is possible to increase the efficiency of using autonomous complexes.
