Now I would like to share with some of my results regarding potential of 3D implementing in Russia

The market for additive manufacturing in Russia is estimated at $ 2.2 billion (2012). Compared to the year 2011, an increase of 28.6%. In 2011, the increase compared to 2010 was 29.4%, and in 2010 – 24.1%. The number of sold 3D printers used in the production is also growing very rapidly. It may be noted that nearly 1.5% of all the installed production 3D printers are in Russia.

Based on materials from lectures in Bremen, the use of additive technology in the oil fields is one of the most promising directions. Interesting to mention that one oil company has already installed 3D printers. If we look on the technical characteristics of the printers models used, we will see that these printers allow to produce details of the size not exceeding the following dimensions (w * d * c): 49cm * 20cm *34,9cm, making it possible to produce a quite limited number of parts.
However, the reviewed company recognizes that the technology definitely has a future, and a special team has been worked to test ideas that can later be used in the Russian context. Currently, scientists agree on the opinion that the creation of metal parts is on top of the curve  proposed by Gartner, and that not all materials which can be used in the production of the additive are sufficiently examined. For example, in September 2014 in the center the detail from graphite was made
