Abstract

In this paper described technogenic impact of radionuclides on oil and gas facilities. When oil products are spilled on the surface as a result of accidents in the oil and gas industry, they are further filtered to the depth of the soil, which leads to the accumulation of radionuclides in the soil. Natural radionuclides then migrate to plants and further along trophic chains. Natural radionuclides that contribute to external radiation enter natural sources - air, water, soil. Today, soil pollution by oil products is one of the most acute environmental problems, as it contributes to the growth of radioactivity in the environment. The components of bitumen and paraffin in the oil entering the soil lead to significant changes in the properties of the soil profile. The gamma background in the region averages 0.11 to 0.20 µSv / h. In Kyzylorda region, hazardous wastes with the possibility of radionuclides include oil wastes, including drilling mud and used ingredients. Development of the Kumkol field began more than 30 years ago (1986). If a large area of oil and gas production areas is not treated and completely cleared of waste over decades, it will have a permanent negative radiation effect on humans and the biosphere.
