Abstract
The idea to use the upper structure of the worked off foreign oil platform «Hutton» in construction of the newly built platform «Prirazlomnaya» should significantly abridged the time for its starting oil production. But the life cycle of any offshore construction will inevitably lead to its dismantle utilization, and the project of destruction should be planned in advance. Russian industrial enterprises haven’t any experience of dismantling and dismembering such large metallic structures profitably. Elaboration of needed technologies should be connected with a series of problems; their listing is shown in the paper.
