Izhorskiye Zavody, part of OMZ Group, has delivered three hydrocracking reactors, one of them is unique in dimensions and weights, to Tuapse refinery (enters Rosneft).

Hydrocracking reactors for Tuapse refinery are innovative high-tech equipment, designed for deep processing of oil and production of high-quality Euro-5 fuel.

The delivery was unique as for the first time in its history Izhorskiye Zavody delivered three vessels simultaneously, one of them unique in dimensions and weights. The delivery was held for the period of several days – on August 7 the last of the three reactors left Izhorskiye Zavody, on August 10, specialized transporters with vessels crossed the railroad tracks of Oktyabrskaya railway near Metallostroy town, while train service on the stretch of road to Moscow and Murmansk areas was suspended and special trolleys lifted contact wires.
