FGC UES Provides External Power to ESPO Oil Pumping Station

FGC UES (Rosseti Group) provided external power supply to oil pumping station No.29 of the pipeline system 'Eastern Siberia - Pacific Ocean' (ESPO). To transmit 10 MW to OPS-29 the Company built two single-circuit lines each 30 km long from the new 220 kV power line 'Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP - Arhara'.

Federal Grid Company undertook phase-by-phase construction and rehabilitation of major power facilities for external power supply to the ESPO pipeline in Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Jewish Autonomous Region and Amur Region, Khabarovsk and Primorie Regions. Previously FGC UES set up power infrastructure for pumping 30 mln tonnes of oil to Kozmino port in Primorie Region.

Currently there is work undertaken to provide external power supply to OPS-23 and 26 in Amur Region and OPS-32 in Jewish Autonomous Region. The activities for ensuring external power supply to these OPS stations are to be completed during 2019. This will allow increasing the oil pumping volumes in ESPO pipeline.
