ChTPZ Group has shipped the first 1980 tons of large diameter pipes with concrete plating for the construction of the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline.
The pipes with the diameter of 1153 mm and the wall thickness of 30.9 mm were produced by Chelyabinsk Pipe Works.
The batch of pipes will be delivered to Finland via railroad and handed over to the customer in July.
“By the end of Q3 ChTPZ intends to have shipped some 630 km of LDP for Nord Stream-2”, the group pipe division CEO Alexander Grubman said. (Ukrainian metal)
