Summary

Focusing on one branch of heavy industry (deep oil and gas drilling) in our work, we come to the importance of energy efficiency, or rather to the problem of energy-efficiency increase. In this paper, some major issues in the field have been highlighted, including the energy potentials in drilling rigs and a proposal on how to increase energy efficiency by applying cogeneration to diesel engines within the scope of the contribution to rational use of energy potentials.
