Annotation. The end of the XX century and the beginning of the XXI centuries is a period of intensive introduction of nanotechnologies in the oil industry of Azerbaijan. Two Nanooil programs designed for 2010-2015 and 2016-2020 gave a great incentive to develop both in the development of oil production and in nanoscience in a wide range. Thanks to these programs, the oil recovery coefficient was increased, the fight against scaling and paraffin formation intensified, the penetration rate during drilling increased, etc. Currently, nanotechnology covered such areas as “Nanooilproduction”, “Nanodrilling”, “Nanochemistry” and “Nanoecology” and “Nanoequipmen” . This paper discusses the current state of nanotechnology in the oil sector, as well as tactical and strategic steps for the development of a new area of nanotechnology application; in the manufacture of parts for oilfield equipment.
Key words: nanotechnology, oilfield equipment, oil recovery coefficient, service life, sealing cuffs, fittings
