Abstract

This paper examines the identification of patterns of innovative development in the Russian pipeline system. An evaluation system based on the theory of technological innovation cycles is proposed. The innovation cycles identification scheme, in terms of innovation objects, is designed; the innovation dynamics are analyzed on the basis of chronological maps and a comparative evaluation of the waves of innovations in oil transportation is conducted. The influence of industrial specificity of groups of elements on the rate of innovative change is revealed. A forecast of pipeline system elements’ innovative renewal is produced using Foresight assessments of priority technologies 2030. Keywords: pipeline system, technological innovation cycle, objects of innovation, speed of innovation changes.
