Type: article
Abstract: The article analyzes statistical data on fires at facilities included in the infrastructure of the oil industry. Statistical distributions are presented by: the years of occurrence of fires at the studied facilities; the number depending on the object of occurrence; the causes and sources of ignition of fires at the oil industry facilities; the circumstances accompanying the occurrence of fires at the oil industry facilities. The results showed an increase in the number of fires in 2022–2024 associated with attacks by unmanned aerial vehicles, which radically change the risk structure, eliminating the stage of delayed ignition and increasing the burning area of spills, outdated equipment and disruptions to technological processes.
