The article discusses the existing methods for determining the vertical position of the internal devices of propane dehydrogenation reactors and methods for measuring their inter-screen distance using robotic complexes developed by Rosneft Oil Company. These robotic complexes are already having a significant impact and contributing to high results in the activities of oil refining and petrochemical enterprises. The scope of application of robotic complexes is quite wide, and the pace of development and introduction of robotics into production processes suggests that in the near future robots will be used everywhere at all stages of oil refining. The introduction of robots into all production processes cannot happen at once, but their gradual introduction into various types of work helps to solve many tasks and problems that previously caused difficulties in implementation. The key goal of introducing robots to perform certain tasks in the field of oil refining is to eliminate risks to human health and life. With the development and improvement of technologies, as well as the deepening of scientific research in the field of robotics, this task is successfully solved, which, in turn, leads to an increase in the quality and efficiency of work, which together gives a significant positive effect.
