Mikhail Sayapin: “The Zapolyarye–Purpe oil pipeline is a unique project. Polar region - Purpe - Samotlor

The investment project for the construction of the Zapolyarye – Purpe oil pipeline is being implemented to transport oil from the fields of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug and the north of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, including the Vankor field, to Russian refinery and for export.
The project is being implemented on the basis of government orders Russian Federation dated 04/22/2010 No. 635-r successively in two stages as new fields are developed and equipped. The route passes through the territory of the Yamalo-Nenets and Khanty-Mansiysk autonomous okrugs Tyumen region.

First stage(the Purpe-Samotlor main oil pipeline with a capacity of 25 million tons of oil per year and a length of 429 km) was put into operation in 2011.
Second phase(the Zapolyarye-Purpe main oil pipeline with a capacity of 45 million tons per year and a length of 488 km) is being implemented in several stages from south to north:
Phase I - section from the town of Tarko-Sale to the village of Purpe;

Stage II - section from the village. Novozapolyarny to Tarko-Sale with completion in the 4th quarter of 2015;

Stage III - section from the Zapolyarye State Oil and Gas Station to the village. Novozapolyarny with completion in the 4th quarter of 2016.

The oil pipeline is being laid in the complex landscape of the northern regions of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug: the route for the most part passes through swampy terrain (swamp crossings are more than 250 km), there are areas of continuous and discontinuous permafrost soils, the pipeline will cross 21 highway, 90 water barriers, including such large rivers as Pur and Taz.

That is why the facilities of the Purpe – Samotlor oil pipeline have concentrated all the advanced achievements of science in the field of pipeline oil transport. The latest technological and technical solutions, modern equipment, high-quality components and equipment. The new highway is designed to provide reliable, efficient, economically and environmentally justifiable transport of hydrocarbons in conditions of northern latitudes and permafrost soils with minimal impact on local natural environment: overpass construction is being implemented, passes are provided on the deer paths.

Currently, the first section of the pipe between the town of Tarko-Sale and the village of Purpe has been completed, General Director of Sibnefteprovod OJSC Yuri Bogatenkov announced this at a press conference. The first pipes of the new oil pipeline were welded in March 2012. By January 2013, builders had “connected” 46 kilometers into a single string, of which 36.6 kilometers were for underground and 9.3 kilometers for above-ground installation. To date, 28 kilometers of pipe have been laid in the trench, 3.6 kilometers on special supports. The underwater crossing of the main oil pipeline across the Purpe River has been built using the traditional trench method, and the company is starting the second phase of construction.

It should be noted that for transportation, viscous northern oil must be heated to 60 degrees. Oil heating points will be built along the entire route for these purposes. There are two of them within the first stage; in total, it is planned to construct seven similar points.

Along the pipeline route, the Purovskaya taiga will gradually be replaced by the Tazovskaya tundra.

Excavation work on the highway.

To the north of the village of Purpe, there are already islands of frozen soil; to prevent the warm pipe from melting it, trestle laying technology is being implemented - the pipeline is raised above the ground on special supports. On the 46-kilometer section between the village of Purpe and the town of Tarko-Sale, 3.6 km were built using this technology. routes, there are two more similar oil pipelines in the world, in Alaska and Vankor.

Pulling a siphon at the underwater crossing of the Purpe River

The oil pumping station "Purpe" near the village of the same name is under the jurisdiction of the Noyabrsk Main Oil Pipeline Administration. The station began operation in 2011 as part of the completed Purpe - Samotlor project; as part of the new project, an oil heating point was built here and the tank farm was expanded.

P.S. On February 6, OJSC Sibnefteprovod began construction of oil pumping station No. 2 on the Zapolyarye - Purpe oil pipeline. The station is being built in the Korotchaevo area by the contracting organization Velesstroy LLC. Preparatory work to clear the site for future facilities began at the end of last year. Now the assembly of the rotational residential camp is in full swing. This time, builders abandoned the use of traditional shift trailers in favor of residential mobile buildings. An administrative and amenity complex, a canteen, and two dormitories for workers have already been installed. In a few days the laundry and women's dormitory will be ready.
Currently, static tests of piles for tanks are being carried out at the production facility. A total of twelve tanks are planned to be built. Two of them - with a capacity of five thousand cubic meters - for releasing a shock wave. According to the approved schedule, the new oil pumping station is planned to be put into operation in October 2015.

Oil pipeline "Purpe-Samotlor"

The first seam of the Purpe-Samotlor oil pipeline was welded on March 11, 2010, and on October 25, 2011, at a ceremony in Noyabrsk, the oil pipeline was put into operation. The route is 430 km long. and with a capacity of 25 million tons per year with the possibility of subsequent expansion to 50 million, it is part of the Zapolyarye-Purpe-Samotlor pipeline system. The oil pipeline connected oil cargo flows from the fields of the middle part of the Purovsky region of Yamal with oil refineries in Russia. Transneft's investments amounted to about 55 billion rubles. A little less than half of the route passes within the Purovsky district, starting in Purpa and ending in Noyabrsk. Three oil pumping stations were built in succession on the oil pipeline: oil pumping station “Purpe”, oil pumping station “Vyngapurovskaya” (Noyabrsk), oil pumping station “Samotlor” (city of Nizhnevartovsk).

Oil pipeline "Zapolyarye-Purpe"

Zapolyarye – Purpe – Samotlor is the northernmost Russian oil pipeline with a length of about 900 km. This is the shortest route connecting the fields of the north of the Krasnoyarsk Territory and Yamal with oil refineries in Russia and world markets in the direction of Eastern Siberia - Pacific Ocean (ESPO).

The Zapolyarye-Purpe oil trunk pipeline is the second stage of the project. Its capacity is 45 million tons per year, its length is 488 km, it is being implemented in several stages from south to north:

Stage I - section from the town of Tarko-Sale to the village of Purpe;

Phase II - section from the village of Novozapolyarny to the town of Tarko-Sale;

The third stage is the section from the Zapolyarye gas pumping station to the village of Novozapolyarny.

Completion of construction is scheduled for 2016. After the oil pipeline is put into operation, over a thousand new jobs will appear in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.

Oil pipeline facilities have concentrated all the advanced achievements of science in the field of oil pipeline transport. The latest technological and technical solutions were used during construction, modern equipment, high-quality components and equipment. The new highway is designed to provide reliable, efficient, economically and environmentally justifiable transport of hydrocarbon raw materials in conditions of northern latitudes and permafrost soils with minimal impact on the local natural environment: overpass construction is being implemented, and passes are provided on deer paths.

The main difficulty of the project is that the pipe passes through permafrost. That's why most of For the first time in Transneft's practice, the oil pipeline was laid not in the traditional underground way, but above the ground - on special supports. This eliminates the effect of heat from the pipe; oil is heated to 60 ° C at the oil pumping station and on permafrost soils.

Construction of the first and second phase sections was completed in 2013 and 2014. Winter 2014-15 The main forces were concentrated on the construction of the linear part of the third stage of construction. This is 151 km of the main line from GPS No. 1 “Zapolyarye” to PS No. 2 “Korotchaevo”. Welding columns, drilling rigs, pipe layers and a significant part of the builders were pulled there. The entire pipe in this section, with the exception of the floodplain of the Taz River, runs above ground.

Welding of the linear part of the entire pipeline system has been completed in full. At GNPS No. 1 Zapolyarye, the installation of all eight oil storage tanks with a volume of 20 thousand cubic meters has been completed. m each.

Meanwhile, work is also underway on the southern sections of the highway. At the second stage site, the construction of an along-route overhead power line and the installation of a fiber-optic communication line have been completed.

During the construction of the southern sections, northern specifics also made themselves felt. The first stage is 134 km of oil pipeline, of which approximately half goes underground, and the other half above it, because to the north of the village of Purpe there are already islands of frozen and thawed soil.

Along the pipeline route, the Purovskaya taiga is gradually replaced by the Tazovskaya tundra.

One of the most difficult stages of construction was the underwater crossings across the Purpe River and the navigable rivers Pur and Taz. For example, in the Taz floodplain there are many oxbow lakes, lakes and small rivers, which in the spring overflow along with the river itself for many kilometers. Therefore, the total length of the crossing, measured by the distance between the shore gates, was 27 km. Throughout this entire section the pipe runs underground.

The investment project for the construction of an oil pipeline involves the construction of facilities, including social and transport infrastructure. The main one is the construction of a bridge across the Pur River between Korotchaevo and Urengoy. The opening of the bridge will be a new page in the history of the Tazovsky region, otherwise the oil pipeline facilities, fields and villages of the region will continue to be cut off from the main traffic flows by the obstinate Pur.

Deserves special attention oil pumping station "Purpe", located near the village of the same name. Before implementation investment project“Zapolyarye-Purpe-Samotlor” was a small station on the outskirts of the Noyabrsky Department of Main Oil Pipelines. The station, which was put into operation in 1994, is today in constant development. As part of the investment project, the oil pumping station was significantly expanded and dozens of facilities were built. The station's tank farm has increased several times. Thus, to the existing two oil storage tanks with a volume of 20 thousand m 3 each, five more were added, as well as two RVS-5000 m 3. As a result, the total volume of the tank farm is 150 thousand cubic meters.

As part of the construction, a second oil pumping station with an oil heating point was erected. It is designed to heat oil to a certain temperature. Only after this will hydrocarbon raw materials be supplied to PS-3, the construction of which is being carried out three kilometers from the existing site.

Today, the Purpe pumping station is a modern, rapidly developing LPDS. It is still the northernmost oil pumping station of Sibnefteprovod OJSC. But very soon the main and booster pumps of two oil pumping stations will start operating: the Korotchaevo oil pumping station and the main oil pumping station (GNPS) No. 1 Zapolyarye, located beyond the Arctic Circle.

Product pipeline “Purovsky ZPK-Noyabrsk-Pyt-Yakh-Tobolsk”

Construction of the product pipeline started in 2012 at the Noyabrskaya loading railway overpass, and it was then that the ceremonial joining of pipes took place as part of the planned construction.

The length of the product pipeline is 1,100 kilometers, investments are 63 billion rubles. The throughput capacity of the product pipeline in the section from the Purovsky Plant to the loading rack in Noyabrsk is 4 million tons. per year, in the section from Noyabrsk to Pyt-Yakh - about 5.5 million tons. per year, and in the Pyt-Yakh-Tobolsk section - 8 million tons. in year. In addition, the new product pipeline is duplicated by the previously existing networks of Yamal and Yugra. Its introduction allowed the company to completely abandon the use of Gazprom networks when transporting natural gas liquids, a product of APG processing. The project was completed in August 2014 in Tobolsk.

Bovanenkovo-Ukhta gas pipeline

The decision to build a gas pipeline 1100 km long. and a capacity of 140 billion m³ for transporting gas from Bovanenkovskoye and other fields of the Yamal Peninsula was accepted in October 2006, construction began in August 2008. The first stage (the first line of the gas pipeline) was put into operation in October 2012. Complete the construction of the system main gas pipelines planned for 2016.

Oil terminal "Mys Kamenny"

In September 2015, Gazprom Neft completed the installation of a loading terminal structure in the waters of the Gulf of Ob near the village of Cape Kamenny on the Yamal Peninsula. The terminal is designed for year-round loading of oil from the Novoportovskoye oil and gas condensate field into tankers. To ensure the operation of the Arctic terminal on the shore of the Ob Bay, accompanying infrastructure for oil shipment was built: underwater and onshore oil pipelines more than 10.5 km long, a tank farm, pumping stations. The total height of the terminal exceeds 80 m, and the maximum capacity for transshipment of raw materials will be more than 8.5 million tons per year.

Northern Optical Flow

The Northern Optical Stream is a backbone communication line stretching 3.5 thousand kilometers from Yekaterinburg through Nyagan, Khanty-Mansiysk, Surgut, Noyabrsk, New Urengoy to Salekhard, its cost amounted to more than 10 billion rubles. The total length of optical communication lines operating in the Northern Optical Stream system is 14,699 km. More than 3.5 million subscribers receive communication services thanks to the Northern Optical Stream.

The line's builders had to work in the taiga, in wetlands, in extreme natural conditions Far North. Particularly difficult was the construction of the line in permafrost conditions. The builders of the highway overcame hundreds of natural and man-made obstacles: 347 large and small rivers, 793 roads, 79 railways, 657 oil and gas pipelines. Construction was carried out in stages from 2000 to April 15, 2014.

Power transmission line "Nadym-Salekhard"

A high-voltage line with a voltage of 220 kV will connect Salekhard with the centralized energy system and ensure reliable power supply to the Yamal capital. The starting point of the overhead line route is the existing 220 kV Nadym substation, and the final point is the projected 220/110/6 kV Salekhard substation. The cost of power lines is 17.8 billion rubles.

P.S. In 1948, on the outskirts of Tyumen, the team of master B. Melik-Karamov drilled the first exploratory well. Its depth was only 2000 meters and although nothing but mineral water was found then, geological exploration in the young region continued. On September 21, 1953, exploration work was crowned with success, the first gusher erupted from the P-1 well in the Ugra village of Berezovo, and it was from that moment that the history of Tyumen oil began. Today, more than 60 years later, one can only admire the enthusiasm and heroism of geologists and pioneers who defended the industrial future of the region and did not allow the north of Tyumen to be flooded with the waters of the Obskaya hydroelectric station. Could a simple man in the middle of the last century imagine that the rails would run from Tyumen to the North for more than one and a half thousand kilometers and reach the Arctic Ocean. The idea that dozens of cities would grow in the taiga and swamps, and that there would be a huge port on the Arctic coast seemed like a fairy tale. The wildest dreams of the past have now been translated into reality, and the titanic work and enthusiasm of the people made it possible to write the illumination of the Tyumen north in the history of the state as a separate chapter...

Arctic vector

The investment project for the construction of the Zapolyarye – Purpe pipeline system in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug is actually entering the home stretch. Oil transportation through the pipeline will begin in the fall of 2016. Distinctive feature This main oil pipeline differs from those already in operation due to the construction method: a significant part of the pipe is laid above the ground on special supports. The deputy told us about the uniqueness and pace of implementation of the project general director, Director of the Directorate for the construction of the investment project "TS Zapolyarye - Purpe" of Transneft-Siberia JSC Mikhail Sayapin.

– Mikhail Vasilyevich, on what main tasks are the efforts of the Directorate for the construction of the investment project and the builders focused? this moment?

– I would like to note that the linear part of the Zapolyarye – Purpe oil pipeline has been fully constructed and tested for strength. The end point of the pipeline is also ready for operation - the Pur-Pe-3 oil pumping station. Construction is nearing completion
and commissioning work on
oil pumping stations No. 1 and 2, oil heating points.

In April of this year, we began filling the pipeline with oil. This process is currently ongoing. We have already filled the first and second stages of the linear part from the Pur-Pe-3 pumping station to the intermediate pumping station No. 2 with oil. The PS-2 technology has also been partially filled, and preparatory work for the second stage is currently underway to fill the station’s tank farm with oil. After this, we will begin filling the linear part of the third stage of the oil pipeline. The next stage is filling the main oil pumping station No. 1.

Filling is a critical moment, ensuring 100% readiness of the entire pipeline infrastructure. We prepared thoroughly for this stage: we carried out all the comprehensive checks, tests, and diagnostics. In addition to the fact that we carried out welding inspections throughout the entire linear part: radiographic, ultrasonic, we also separately checked areas of the highest category - these are underwater passages, intersections with highways and railways, where additional double control of all joints was carried out. The passage of instruments gave us complete information on the technological state of the pipe and confirmed the quality of the work. The operation of linear equipment was also checked. With help automated systems control and telemechanics, we already have the ability to automatically control valves and monitor all pipeline parameters.

– What is unique about the Zapolyarye – Purpe oil pipeline?

– A similar pipeline operates in Alaska. We took a lot of things from there. We saw the pipeline working on frozen soils. The need for their thermal stabilization was clearly understood. In Tyumen, this technology is offered by the Fundamentstroyarkos company. They have extensive experience in the production of thermal stabilizers. Without thermal stabilization, the bearing capacity of Arctic soils is reduced to almost zero. At above-zero temperatures they turn not even into a swamp, but into mush. In addition, our pipeline will be “hot”. Yamal oil has a high viscosity, solidifies at temperatures below +14 degrees Celsius, and in order to pump it, it needs to be heated to +60. For this purpose, heating points have been built on the pipeline. There are eight of them on our route. And in order to prevent the permafrost soil from thawing, we lift the pipe onto supports above the ground and pack it in thermal insulation.

When we started work in 2011-2012, we had an experimental site where we tested all the technologies necessary for the construction of the pipeline. A lot had to start from scratch. For example, there were no supports that were designed for use in arctic conditions using thermal stabilization. They were developed at the scientific institute of the Transneft company and tested in real conditions. There was no ready-made solutions on the use of pipeline supports. When oil flows through a pipe, the pipeline moves slightly. Therefore, we had to take this feature into account at the construction stage to ensure safe operation of the highway during operation. We used three types of supports: fixed, which stabilizes and holds the pipeline, longitudinally movable and freely movable supports in order to operate the pipe in conditions of temperature fluctuations. Also, compensators are installed every 500 meters of the external oil pipeline.

Using the technology of thermal stabilization of soils, oil pumping stations were built - the main one and PS-2, along the route power lines, communication masts, chambers for receiving and launching cleaning and diagnostic equipment, and oil heating points.

At the experimental site we also worked out welding technology. Welders know how to weld below, on the ground, using automatic welding. But here the pipe must be built above the ground. We explored different options: returning to manual welding- but this is a loss in time and quality, the pipe was welded in sections and laid on supports, and special platforms were developed for welders to work at height. As a result, we came to the point that we learned to work at height with automatic welding systems. And now, probably, no one except us can do this.

– Mikhail Vasilyevich, what main difficulties – climatic, geological, infrastructural, etc. – did the Directorate’s employees and builders encounter?

– What is the main difficulty of construction in Yamal? All soils are icy. In any soil, at best, there is 10% ice content. It happens up to 40%. In winter it is unnoticeable. They lay down the soil, compact it, and build something on it. Spring has come, you can’t get anywhere: all the soil has melted. There is another bad property of such soil - minimal filtration. That is, water does not pass through it. It's like sour cream. And it is impossible to build anything on such soil - no roads, no normal sites. The solution was hydraulic sand. And this is a problem again, but a different one. With the winds that blow on Yamal, this is a constant weathering of sand. You fly in a helicopter and see: the tundra is covered with sand. And this causes complaints from local residents. Sand settles on moss. Deer use this moss to wear down their teeth. So it's not that simple. You need to secure the sand with something. How? They began to use biomats, a kind of rolled lawn.

– How did the contractors, those teams that were involved in the construction of the pipeline, perform? Was there a lot of trouble, or were you in a state of comfort?

– If you have complete comfort with the contractors, it means you are building something wrong. In fact, you are always in a friendly fight with contractors: who will win? For them to make money, but for you it is important to save money and maintain quality. Quality is our top priority. And our construction control is carried out very strictly and continuously. At JSC AK Transneft, such high level quality checks of both construction and installation work and supplied materials, so that we have repeatedly identified manufacturing defects in pipes. We had to return the products back to the factory. We can rightfully be proud of the quality control of the work carried out. It is not for nothing that AK Transneft JSC declared 2016 the Year of Quality in Construction.

– Were local manufacturers involved in the project? Is it possible to talk about their role in the process of import substitution?

- Undoubtedly. This is Fundamentstroyarkos, the Sibpromkomplekt pipe insulation plant. For Chelyabinsk Konar, our order for the production of metal structures was simply a gift of fate - the plant received additional resources for the development and diversification of production. Today, on its basis, a plant for the production of main valves has been launched, and this is a completely different level.

– Is it possible to compare this project in terms of design complexity, construction conditions and future operation with such a project as the Eastern Siberia – Pacific Ocean (ESPO) pipeline system?

– At ESPO, I supervised the construction of the section from km 1941 (Tuolba River) to Skovorodino. There were no roads there at all, but I still understood that I was on the mainland. But in Yamal it’s different – ​​there’s a white milky void in all directions, you get lost in reality. Of course, the Zapolyarye-Purpe highway is more complicated both in terms of construction and operation. This is clear. The very composition of the transported oil poses challenges to oil pipeline operators. serious challenges and places a great deal of responsibility on them.

– Mikhail Vasilyevich, with what expectations did you start this project? Did you learn a lot for yourself by participating in its implementation?

– At the end of 2011, we just completed the construction of the Purpe – Samotlor oil trunk pipeline. They had not yet had time to wash the mud from their boots, and they had already begun the construction of the Zapolyarye-Purpe highway. It was difficult. I had to learn a lot. There were doubts and worries. But from the very beginning we firmly knew that we would build the highway within the time frame established by the Government of the Russian Federation. We had to develop and test new construction technologies, including pile driving. At first, they drove 4-5 piles per day and were happy. And then we did the math and saw: if we work at this pace, then our grandchildren will complete the construction of the highway. But we quickly learned, and after a few months we reached a daily step of 150 piles. We learned how to weld pipes using automatic systems at altitude. Learned how to build oil tanks on a pile foundation almost two meters above ground level. We learned a lot during the implementation of this project, and our contractors probably gained even more experience.

– How can you now evaluate the amount of work implemented?

– When a thing is made with high quality, it always looks beautiful. As a builder, looking at an object, I can immediately determine how it was built: good or bad. Our highway has not yet been put into operation, but it is already clear that it was built with the proper quality. Soon, in the fourth quarter of 2016, when the oil pipeline is put into operation, we will see the results of our five-year work in real conditions.

Radoslav VASILIEV

The Bovanenkovo ​​– Ukhta-2 gas pipeline and two Transneft oil pipelines Zapolyarye – Purpe and Kuyumba – Taishet were solemnly put into operation today in Yamal and the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The launch command was given via video link by Russian President Vladimir Putin. The pipelines will ensure gas supply to Unified system gas supply (UGSS) of the Russian Federation, as well as the reception of oil from recently exploited fields of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug) and the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

Before the ceremony, the President said that the three pipelines would significantly expand the capabilities of the entire oil and gas industry. In addition, they will help further development Russian regions. Of course, first of all, new transport routes will help ensure and increase the supply of hydrocarbons for export.

“It is obvious to everyone that the need for energy resources, of course, both in our country due to economic growth and in the world, it will only grow. The demand for hydrocarbon raw materials will also increase. In order to be prepared for market expansion, it is necessary to make investment decisions in a timely manner, which is what we did on these projects,” Putin emphasized. – And when planning further work, we need to respond most carefully not only to what is happening on the world energy markets, but also to look at the dynamics of the development of our own Russian economy. So that we never have restrictions on economic growth due to any shortage of energy resources and related infrastructure.”

The head of state also praised the pipeline builders, noting that all three projects were implemented “at the highest professional level.” Putin said that during construction, despite difficult climatic conditions, all environmental requirements. In addition, modern domestic technology was used.

Bovanenkovo ​​– Ukhta-2

The Bovanenkovo-Ukhta-2 pipeline, like the existing Bovanenkovo-Ukhta pipeline, will deliver gas from the largest Bovanenkovo ​​oil and gas condensate field in Yamal to the UGSS. Its length is 1.2 thousand kilometers. Among other things, the new pipeline will help fill both lines of the Nord Stream 2 under construction with fuel.

To do this, it is necessary to supplement the so-called Northern Gas Corridor with a gas pipeline. Gazprom already started construction of this line in 2015.

Explored and preliminary estimated gas reserves at the Bovanenkovskoye oil, gas and condensate field amount to 4.9 trillion cubic meters. Industrial development of this fishery began in 2012.

Polar region - Purpe

The oil pipelines that were solemnly launched today are, in principle, already functioning. For example, Transneft began filling the Arctic Circle - Purpe with raw materials back in April last year, but this process was lengthy and lasted for six months. At the beginning of December, Transneft began pumping oil through this pipeline without setting a tariff. Later the tariff was approved at 399 rubles per ton.

Zapolyarye - Purpe - according to experts, the northernmost main oil pipeline with a capacity of 45 million tons per year and a length of 488 km. Its resource base is the Urengoy group of Gazprom fields; Suzunskoye, Tagulskoye, Russkoye, Russko-Rechenskoye fields of Rosneft; Messoyakha and East Messoyakha fields, developed by Rosneft and Gazprom Neft; as well as the Pyakyakhinskoye field of LUKOIL. The Zapolyarye–Purpe pipeline connected these fields with the Eastern Siberia–Pacific Ocean (ESPO) oil pipeline system.

The main pumping volumes (up to 78%) were contracted by Transneft. According to preliminary agreements, the operating company intends to annually supply up to 10 million tons of oil to Rosneft, as well as up to 7.4 million tons of oil to Messoyakhaneftegaz, up to 3.1 million tons to LUKOIL, and up to 3.1 million tons to Gazprom. and 1.3 million tons of SeverEnergia.

The highway passes through the Yamalo-Nenets and Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrugs. The route of the route for the most part passes through swampy terrain, with areas of continuous and discontinuous permafrost. The cost of the entire project, according to the head of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev, is more than 200 billion rubles.

“1.5 thousand jobs have been created. About 3 billion rubles in taxes will be allocated to budgets of all levels,” Tokarev noted at the pipeline launch ceremony.

Kuyumba – Tayshet

The Kuyumba-Taishet oil pipeline connected the Yurubcheno-Tokhomskoye and Kuyumbinskoye fields in the Krasnoyarsk Territory with an oil pumping station in Taishet and then with the ESPO oil pipeline. In November 2016, Rosneft began pumping raw materials from the Yurubcheno-Tokhomskoye field into the pipeline system. In 2018, Kuyumba will also join.

The implementation of the Kuyumba-Tayshet project includes two stages. The first involves the construction of a linear part, two oil pumping stations (OPS) with a total tank volume of 160 thousand cubic meters, the creation of a central repair service and a production support base in the Boguchansky district of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, as well as the expansion of the main oil pumping station-1 “Tayshet”. The throughput capacity of the oil pipeline at this stage will be 8.6 million tons of oil per year.

The second stage provides for the construction of two more oil pumping stations (PS-3 and PS-4) in the Krasnoyarsk Territory and Irkutsk Region. The volume of transportation of raw materials will gradually increase and should reach 9.9 million tons by 2023, and from 2024 - 11 million tons per year. In the future, the throughput capacity of the Kuyumba – Taishet oil pipeline will reach 15 million tons of oil per year.

The total length of this pipeline is about 700 kilometers. Its construction cost 124.2 billion rubles. :///
