The paper presents the results in the field of research and analysis of the optical density of motor oil using mathematical and intelligent models. The quadratic approximations of the dependence of optical density on time are obtained for three different temperatures of temperature control. It is established that each curve of the change in optical density with time contains an inflection point. On the basis of which it was hypothesized that these moments correspond to a certain phase transition in the oil under study. A three-dimensional model of dependence of the rate of change of optical density on temperature and test time was also constructed. When analyzing this dependence, the character of the inflection curve is established, which is proposed as an indicator indicating the attainment of the limiting resource of lubricating oils.

In this article, a concept of an automated energy efficiency control system based on intelligent methods has been proposed. CONCLUSION. Using the indicator of specific electricity consumption for artificial oil lift, as an indicator of energy efficiency, makes it possible to assess the current level of energy efficiency and identify the potential for further energy saving. To control the specific consumption of electricity at the mechanized stock of production wells, it is necessary to implement systemic energy metering, additional factor analysis of deviations from the planned values. Using of intelligent methods of data analysis selects the factors of deviation of the specific power consumption and ensures the reliability of energy efficiency control.
