OREANDA-NEWS. The design and budget bureau of OJSC Sibirgazservis (a subdivision of the GAZEKS holding company) celebrates in May 2007 the 18th anniversary of its foundation.

Among the bureau's key tasks is the development of projects aimed at providing safe and uninterrupted gas supply of the facilities running on gas.

Over these years the bureau has implemented 592 projects related to gas supply to Novosibirsk and the Novosibirsk Region, including networks for gas distribution among residential settlements, gasified boiler plants, distribution networks in cities and residential areas, and gas filling stations. In addition, over 5,000 projects related to gas supply to private households have been performed.

According to the bureau head, Natalya Poltavets, the bureau's clients may be conventionally divided into three groups:

The first group includes municipal entities of the districts in the Novosibirsk Region. They order projects for gas supply to residential areas and construction of gas distribution networks in district centers and villages.

The second group comprises individual entrepreneurs, legal entities, and consumer cooperatives and companies. Their projects are mainly focused on gas supply to shopping, entertainment, and business centers, cattle-breeding facilities, shops, cooperatives, and boiler houses.

The last but not least is a group which consists of private households whose houses are located near gas distribution networks. These customers order projects for gas supply to cottages, houses, saunas, and greenhouses.

The list of the most recent achievements of the bureau includes the project for gas supply to a pig breeding complex, OJSC Kudryashovskoe, the largest one located to the east of the Urals, which uses the technology of replacing water heating with air heating - a unique project for Siberia. Most of the design work is done using specialized software (MapInfo and AutoCAD). The market of today requires projects to be implemented up to the highest standards and within tight deadlines. Owing to this, GAZEKS design subdivision successfully competes on the market of designs of gas distribution networks and gasified boiler plants.
