Qualification of employees who operate technological processes directly influences the safety of production. However, the employees’’ qualification cannot completely exclude human factor. Today, there are many technologies that can minimize or eliminate human factor impact on production safety ensuring. The augmented reality technology is an example of this technology. Nowadays, the augmented reality technologies and industrial technologies integration process moves to a new level of development. These technologies have huge experience, which has been accumulated in a long period of time. -This new level turns available by this experience combination and integration; it brings additional profit to the enterprise and can be a basis for completely new technologies. This paper shows an example of combination of augmented reality technology and oil pumps maintenance. For researching of efficiency of augmented reality system for oil pump maintenance, the laboratory unit with Grundfos vertical electric centrifugal pump (CR15-4 A-FGJ-AE-HQQE) was used. The laboratory unit is a physical model of one of the continuous oil processes. The oil pump of this laboratory unit is object of this research. The algorithm of servicing of oil pump was developed. The test of system and algorithms were carried out with four groups of people: the first one had only instructions to use on hand, the second one only used the internal recommendations of the system, the third one used only the help of an expert, and the fourth used internal recommendations and, if necessary, contacted the expert. The results show the efficiency and actuality of augmented reality technology for maintenance of industrial equipment, especially for the equipment operated in remote Arctic conditions.

Given the critically important role of haul trucks in the overall mineral extraction process chain, the suspension system — the component with the highest failure frequency — was selected as the research object. The authors propose a method for quantitatively assessing a group of parameters of a technological transportation route due to challenging mining operating conditions. Using data from two mining enterprises over a three-year period, dependence was established between the reduction in the service life of dump truck suspensions and each of the identified factors in the route parameter groups. The assessment was carried out using data from remote monitoring systems installed on the vehicles. Based on the derived dependence, a criterion for optimizing the overhaul interval of haul truck suspensions was developed, incorporating a set of planning and economic factors. This criterion allows decisions to be made on the advisability of implementing measures aimed at achieving a target reliability level for the suspension system within the framework of the maintenance strategy adopted by mining enterprises, which combines scheduled and emergency repairs of machine components and assemblies. Using the proposed criterion, an optimal ratio between grading equipment and haulage equipment was determined when forming the vehicle fleet. Furthermore, an algorithm for determining a rational overhaul interval for haul truck suspensions was developed based on this criterion. Implementation of the algorithm at the mining enterprises under study has significantly reduced both the duration of unplanned downtime caused by suspension failures and the time required for repair activities.

The oil&gas enterprises have their own safety concerns list. Poor maintenance of equipment is one of the top safety concerns for many enterprises. There are a lot of methods of increasing of safety, but its shouldn’t be used alone. A complex approach and addition the modern technologies in safety ensuring make possible not only increase the quality but increase the efficiently of production. There are a lot of kinds of quality improving of maintenance of electromechanical equipment, one of them are the augmented reality system. This is a new technology and there are no methods and effective estimation for developing and using this technology in industrial production. Developing the special unified modules of augmented reality for maintenance of electromechanical equipment is the actual task. The aim of this research-to identify possible uses, to estimate the effectiveness in ensuring the safety of production and to develop a way of integrating into typical process control systems of the augmented reality system for maintenance of electromechanical equipment.
