The article considers the history of the Northern sea route formation and the current state of this transit artery, which makes it possible to determine the potential, existing problems and prospects for using the considered communication. The importance of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation as a strategic region rich in minerals is noted. The main export and transit orientation of the Arctic communications was revealed. Attention is paid to the development of international cooperation. A review of cargo flows is given and an analysis of the state of cargo transportation in the SMP is carried out. Alternative schemes of cargo transportation from region to region are proposed, which allows to significantly reduce the cost of transport services — this will further reduce the cost of transported products for the end user. It is proposed to organize intra-basin transportation through or through the operation of all types of transport that can participate in the «SMP-regions» system. The selection criteria for each participant will be the cost of transportation. The key positions in this system are occupied by river and sea transport, since there are no other types of transport. In connection with the active development of the SMP, the system proposed by the authors will be actively developed as it coincides with the key positions of the strategy for the development of the economy and transport of the Russian Federation.

Transport is a system-forming branch of the national economy, ensuring the territorial integrity and unity of the economic space. The development of economic processes, increasing competition and the increasing impact of economic ties, include the issues of improving the transport system among the priorities. The article analyzes the problems of modern transport systems, identifies the shortcomings of traditional modes of transport and the main directions of their development. The directions of innovative development of the transport system of Russia are analyzed. The review of innovative developments of high-speed transport, which allows to increase the integration potential of the regions and the mobility of the population, to reduce social tensions in remote regions from the central part of the country, to ensure the economic security of the country. Conclusions are drawn about the current state of implementation of such systems and prospects for application in Russia. The requirements for the new generation transport system are defined.

The article proposes an algorithm for analyzing the development scheme and the gathering system for oil fields at a late stage of development in order to increase their investment attractiveness. The algorithm is carried out in several stages and is based on the use of the theory of fuzzy sets, which allows us to consider the field as a kind of fuzzy set and break down individual aspects of its operation into subsets.
