Using the method of nonequilibrium statistical operator by Zubarev, an approach is proposed for the description of kinetics which takes into account the nonlinear hydrodynamic fluctuations for a quantum Bose system. Non-equilibrium statistical operator is presented which consistently describes both the kinetic and nonlinear hydrodynamic processes. Both a kinetic equation for the nonequilibrium one-particle distribution function and a generalized Fokker-Planck equation for nonequilibrium distribution function of hydrodynamic variables (densities of momentum, energy and particle number) are obtained. A structure function of hydrodynamic fluctuations in cumulant representation is calculated, which makes it possible to analyse the generalized Fokker-Planck equation in Gaussian and higher approximations of the dynamic correlations of hydrodynamic variables which is important in describing the quantum turbulent processes.
