The Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas (Шаблон:Lang-ru) is a public university in Moscow, Russia. The university was founded in 1930 and is named after the geologist Ivan Gubkin. The university is colloquially known as Kerosinka (Шаблон:Lang-ru), meaning 'kerosene stove'.

During the Soviet period, the university, along with the Moscow State University of Railway Engineering, was known for admitting students of Jewish origin while other universities unofficially barred Jewish students.

Affiliates of the Gubkin institute exist in Orenburg and Tashkent (Uzbekistan).

History

In 1918, the Moscow Mining Academy was founded, which became a prominent institution for education and training in various fields related to oil. Initially, the Mining Faculty at the academy was responsible for providing education and training in oil and field specialties. However, in 1929, the rector of the academy, Ivan Gubkin, took a significant step by establishing the dedicated Oil Faculty. This new faculty served as the foundation for the subsequent establishment of the Oil Institute.

During the period of 1930 to 1935, the industrialization process in the USSR necessitated the education and development of a substantial number of engineering and technical experts, with a significant increase from 66,000 individuals in 1929 to approximately 435,000 specialists.

In the year 1930, the Supreme Soviet of the National Economy (VSNKh of the USSR) devised a comprehensive list of professional disciplines within the engineering and technical sectors specifically tailored for the oil industry. These specialized areas encompassed a diverse range of fields including petroleum geology, drilling techniques, effective field exploitation strategies, gas utilization methods, proficient oil and derivative pumping techniques, efficient oil distillation processes, advanced cracking and chemical refining methods, as well as the intricate economics and financial aspects relevant to the oil industry.

Moscow Petroleum Institute

On April 18, 1930, Ivan Gubkin issued order number 1 to establish the faculties of geology and oil exploration, field-mechanical, and oil refining at the Moscow Petroleum Institute. Nikolai Samostrelov was appointed Deputy Director, Sergei Fedorov became the Head of the Faculty of Geology and Oil Exploration, Joseph Gurevich became the Head of the Faculty of Oil Refining, and Nikolai Titkov became the Head of the Field and Mechanical Faculty.

In May, enrollment for all departments started, with 240 students being admitted for the first course. By May 17, the total number of students had risen to 600. In September 1930, another round of admissions took place. Two new specialties, "Oil Transportation and Storage" and "Oilfield Engineering," were established in 1933. In 1935, the Department of Mineralogy and Crystallography was restructured into the Department of Petrography of Sedimentary Rocks.

In 1936, the Main Department of Higher and Secondary Technical Educational Institutions (called GLAVTUZ) of the People's Commissariat of Heavy Industry, made revisions to the educational programs. The Institute incorporated sections dedicated to highlighting the accomplishments of Stakhanovites in different areas of the oil industry across all 66 specialized subjects. The newly developed curricula were granted approval by the All-Union Committee for Higher Education (VKVSH) on May 28, 1938.

Since 1938, educational establishments have been mandated by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to dedicate a substantial amount of time, ranging from 520 to 690 hours, towards the study of social sciences. This allocation of hours exceeds the previous requirement set in 1935, which dictated a mere 272 hours for this subject matter. Moreover, a notable change has been introduced in the organizational structure, whereby a unified department encompassing the fundamentals of Marxism-Leninism has been established. This new department replaces the previously existing segregated departments that solely focused on Party history, Leninism, dialectical studies, and historical materialism.

By 1935, the Institute had established 16 laboratories in 40 rooms. It was also the first oil university in the country to have a laboratory dedicated to oilfield mechanics, led by mining engineer D.Z. Lozinsky and supervised by Professor Leonid Leibenson. Additionally, the Institute had 26 classrooms and a museum of mineralogy and petrography that was created with the help of Professor L.V. Pustovalov.

The educational process at that time was greatly supported by various workshops such as mechanical, carpentry, and glassblowing. Additionally, the library played a crucial role in providing resources for students and staff, ensuring a constant supply of new materials. In fact, in 1937, the library expanded its collection by incorporating the extensive department of foreign scientific literature on the oil industry from the former Glavneft. As a result, the library became even more valuable in terms of its educational offerings. By the time the Great Patriotic War began, the educational library boasted an impressive collection of 72,100 volumes, reflecting its dedication to promoting knowledge and learning.

As of November 1, 1933, a significant percentage of young specialists were employed in the oil industry enterprises. Specifically, 75% of these specialists were working in the oil industry, while 80% were employed in the oil refining sector. During the period from 1924 to 1930, the Moscow Mining Academy successfully graduated 40 individuals who specialized in the field of oil. Additionally, the Oil Institute played a crucial role in contributing to the nation's engineering workforce during the first five-year plan, as it produced a total of 289 engineers within a three-year span. It is worth mentioning that oil specialists were trained in three higher educational institutions located in Moscow, Grozny, and Baku, as well as in seven technical schools throughout the USSR.

In 1936, at the directive of director Alexander Nikishin, an expansive training derrick was constructed within the confines of the institute's courtyard. This impressive structure served as a fully functional classroom, catering to the educational needs of aspiring oilfield mechanics, apparatus technicians, and interpreters, among other disciplines. Furthermore, the institute boasted a state-of-the-art geophysical station, equipped with cutting-edge instruments for comprehensive well research. Remarkably, prior to the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, the institute successfully completed the drilling of a pilot well, reaching a staggering depth of 800 meters.

In 1940, a total of 1619 engineers successfully completed their education at the institute. Among these graduates, there were 328 individuals who specialized in geological engineering, 243 who focused on field engineering, 526 who pursued process engineering, and 191 who specialized in economic engineering.

On October 1, 1941, there were a total of 819 students at the institute. Around 300 of them departed on October 16 in a foot column for evacuation. Additionally, approximately 150 students, who either weren't informed or couldn't leave on foot, opted for rail transportation. About 100 students chose to remain in Moscow for various reasons, while the remaining students primarily joined the front lines. Some were already engaged in practical work at enterprises and expeditions when the war began. Among the 117 professors and teachers, 48 chose to evacuate with the institute, 54 resigned, and 14 joined the people's militia.

The Institute in Ufa was established on August 15, 1942. In the second semester of the 1942-1943 academic year, new departments were created due to the increased workload and the introduction of new specialties. The Department of General Chemistry was divided into the Department of General and Analytical Chemistry and the Department of Physical and Colloidal Chemistry, according to the VKVSH order issued on March 31, 1943. Associate Professor G. M. Panchenkov was assigned to oversee the latter department. Both Ufa and Moscow successfully concluded the second military academic year.

In 1956, the Institute embarked on a mission to establish a series of training and consulting centers in the primary oil and gas regions of the country. These regions included Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Turkmenistan, and Komi. The primary objective behind the establishment of these centers was to provide educational opportunities for individuals interested in the field of oil and gas. To cater to the needs of working professionals, the classes at these centers were conducted through a correspondence education program, allowing individuals to study at their own pace and convenience. As the demand for education in the oil and gas industry grew, the Institute took it a step further by opening evening faculties based on these centers, providing individuals with even more flexibility in pursuing their education while managing their professional commitments.

Moscow Institute of Petrochemical and Gas Industry

On July 25, 1958, a significant decision was made by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) and the Council of Ministers of the USSR. In accordance with Decree number 795, an educational institution, known as the Moscow Order of the Red Banner of Labor Oil Institute, was granted a new and more encompassing identity. Henceforth, it would be recognized as the Moscow Order of the Red Banner of Labor Institute of Petrochemical and Gas Industry (MINKhIGP), paying tribute to the academician Ivan Gubkin. This renaming symbolized the institution's expanded focus on not only the oil industry but also the rapidly emerging and vital field of petrochemical and gas technology.

The Minister of Higher Education of the USSR issued an order on January 3, 1959, transforming the branch of the correspondence faculty of MINH and GP in Almetyevsk into the Tatar evening faculty. This new faculty was established in Almetyevneft with branches in Bugulma and Leninogorsk. Similar evening faculties were also established in Salavat, Omsk, Nebit-Dag, and Ukhta. The branch in Leninogorsk was later reorganized into a general technical faculty, offering evening and correspondence education. Additionally, an evening faculty was opened in Moscow.

In 1961, the institute's directorate became a rectorate, with Professor Kuzma Zhigach serving as the first rector. In August 1962, Associate Professor V. N. Vinogradov took over as the institute's rector.

The Department of Gas and Gas Condensate Fields Development of the Gas and Oil Production Faculty has pioneered a groundbreaking scientific field known as the industrial utilization of solid hydrocarbons. This novel research direction aims to explore the potential applications and benefits of solid hydrocarbons in various industries. With this innovative approach, the department seeks to revolutionize the way we utilize and harness the energy potential of solid hydrocarbons, opening up new possibilities for industrial development and sustainability.

In 1977, the Institute embarked on a groundbreaking initiative to establish an innovative model of organizing the educational process. This involved the creation of student educational and scientific research complexes, which integrated the realms of education, production, and science. These complexes aimed to fuse theoretical knowledge with practical application by allowing students to actively engage in research activities within factory workshops and laboratories. Furthermore, these research endeavors were conducted in collaboration with various plants and research institutes, utilizing cutting-edge production and scientific equipment. The outcomes of these research projects held significant value as they were extensively incorporated into the educational curriculum.

Moscow Institute of Oil and Gas

On the 18th of December in the year 1985, a significant change took place as the Institute underwent a transformation and was given a new identity, now known as the Moscow Institute of Oil and Gas (MING).

In the year 1989, the Institute took a significant step forward by establishing a cooperative research consulting center known as "Neftegazservice". This center played a crucial role in conducting various activities such as prospecting, research, development, design, implementation, commercialization, and intermediation related to the Institute's subjects. Simultaneously, the Institute also initiated the creation of a reference and information fund, commonly referred to as RIF, which focused on addressing issues concerning higher education. This fund was organized in a microfiche format, providing a comprehensive collection of relevant materials and resources.

The State Academy of Oil and Gas

The Institute underwent a significant change on May 7, 1991, when it was rebranded as the State Academy of Oil and Gas, commonly referred to as GANG.

As a result of the overall decline in the state of Russian higher education in 1992, the Academy found itself in a precarious position with regards to the continuation of important scientific research. Over the course of 1992-1993, a significant number of 109 teachers decided to leave the university, citing a range of factors contributing to their departure. It is worth noting that 72 of these individuals were of a relatively young age, indicating a potential loss of promising talent. Additionally, the Academy experienced a substantial decrease in the number of researchers, with nearly 500 individuals leaving their positions during this time period. Unfortunately, the specific source for this information could not be identified, but it serves as a stark reminder of the challenging circumstances faced by the institution.

Given these circumstances, the rectorate has gone to great lengths to maintain and safeguard the integrity of scientific and pedagogical institutions, ensuring that the educational process and research endeavors of faculty members are supported with the essential resources, including teaching materials, laboratory facilities, and technical equipment.

In 1997, a new role known as the Vice-Rector for Information Technologies was introduced. This position was filled by V.V. Sidorov, who at the time was the Head of the Department of Informatics and an Associate Professor. Later on, Professor A.S. Lopatin took over the responsibilities of leading this area of work. Alongside this development, the Center for Information Technologies and Distance Education, also known as CIT&EDO, was established during the same period. The center was headed by Associate Professor A.P. Pozdnyakov and A.Yu. Khodychkin. Within the center, various departments and sectors were formed, including the Department of Information Technologies, the sectors dedicated to distance education and the development of training programs and complexes, and the laboratory specifically focused on computer technologies in the field of education.

Russian State University of Oil and Gas

In August 1998, the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation issued an order to change the name of the Academy to Russian State University of Oil and Gas (RSUOG). At this point in time, the University boasted an impressive 59 departments and employed a total of 930 teachers.

In 2008, Professor Viktor Martynov was chosen as the rector of Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas. This appointment marked a significant milestone in his career, as he assumed the leadership role of a renowned institution dedicated to the study and advancement of oil and gas exploration and production.

History

There was a task in the USSR – to prepare 435,000 engineers and technicians in 5 years (1930-1935) during the USSR industrialization period, while their number in 1929 was 66,000.[1]

In 1930 the Moscow Mining Academy was divided into six independent institutes by the order of Supreme Soviet of the National Economy. The Petroleum Engineering Department of the Moscow Mining Academy became the base for the new Moscow Petroleum Institute. The Institute was named in honor of Academician Ivan Gubkin, “who contributed greatly to the foundation of higher education aimed at (of training engineers, needed urgently for the socialist industry”. At this time the young Soviet state was in want of fuel and energy for industrial development. The petroleum industry faced new challenges such as the development of new fields, application of advanced methods of operation, introduction of new production technologies, further development of oil refining technologies and construction of new plants, electrification of the oil industry, as well as the planning, organization and improving the safety of petroleum production. None of these problems could be solved without significant increase in the number of petroleum engineers and Gubkin Institute became the main base for preparing such specialists.

At the beginning there were only three faculties at the University, namely: Geology and Oil Exploration, Petroleum Engineering and Refining. The first Rector of the University and the founders of its educational and research schools was its namesake Ivan M. Gubkin.

From 1941 to 1943, during World War II, the University was evacuated to Ufa.[2]

Nowadays there are more than ten teaching faculties at Gubkin preparing specialists in almost every field of the petroleum industry: from petroleum geology and engineering to energy economics and trading. Since the University's establishment more than 85,000 students have been graduated from Gubkin.
