Today, the Pipe Metallurgical Company (TMK) has put into operation a new complex for heat treatment of pipes in the pipe-rolling shop No. 1 of the Seversky Pipe Plant (STZ). Governor of the Sverdlovsk Region Evgeny Kuyvashev, Chairman of the Board of Directors of TMK Dmitry Pumpyansky, General Director of TMK Igor Korytko, Chairman of the Management Board of RUSNANO Management Company Anatoly Chubais, Deputy Head of the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Natural Resources Amirkhan Amirkhanov, Director of the Department of Metallurgy and Materials of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Pavel Servatinsky, as well as managers and employees of STZ.
The capacity of the new complex is up to 300 thousand tons of pipes per year. It allows for heat treatment of pipes with a diameter of 168 to 370 mm and a wall thickness of 6.4 to 40 mm. The total investments in the project amounted to about 5.5 billion rubles, 110 new jobs were created. The pipe heat treatment complex is intended for the production of premium pipe products used in the development of hard-to-recover fields, as well as when drilling wells in aggressive environments and in the Far North.
The new production complex was created in partnership with RUSNANO under an agreement on the modernization of Seversky pipe plant. The operational properties of pipes are improved due to alloying and microalloying with nanostructured alloys, which increase strength, ductility and corrosion resistance by 15-20%.
The high-tech equipment of the new complex makes it possible to control the heat treatment process in automatic mode. The block of treatment facilities with a circulating water supply cycle allows to reuse 20 million m 3 water annually. The water purification technology implemented at the pipe heat treatment complex significantly reduces the burden on the environment.
“TMK continues to improve and modernize its production facilities, consistently implements digital solutions and advanced management methods in accordance with the company's scientific strategy. -technical development. The new heat treatment complex allows to expand the production of premium products, providing oil and gas companies with pipes and threaded connections designed to work in the harshest geological and climatic conditions. We invest significant resources in the development of our enterprises and increasing the scientific and technical potential - not only to meet the highest requirements from the consumers of our products, but also to bring new products and solutions to the market that are ahead of these requirements, "said Dmitry Pumpyansky.
“The veteran of the domestic metallurgy Seversky Pipe Plant is a vivid example of the application of technological innovations in the industrial sector of the Russian economy. We are proud that, in partnership with TMK, one of the world's leading pipe manufacturers, we have managed to launch the production of unique pipe products with improved performance properties and good export potential. This project not only creates added value for a pipe manufacturer, but also opens up new opportunities for oil and gas companies, "said Anatoly Chubais.
