OREANDA-NEWS.  These compressor stations will be put into operation within gas pipelines system "Southern Corridor" on the territory between compressor stations "Pisarevka" and "Russkaya". LLC "Iskra-Avigaz" will deliver and put gas-turbine units into operation. GTU-25P will be operated within gas-compressor units GPA-Ts-25NK (their manufacturer and packager is OJSC "Saturn - Gas Turbines").

Gas pipelines system "Southern Corridor" will afford to deliver additional volumes of natural gas to develop industry, community facilities, increase gasifying speed in the regions of central and southern parts of Russia, and moreover - provide regular gas supply into the main pipeline "Southern Stream".

For information

Overall length of gas transmission system line "Southern Corridor" will equal 2506,2 km. Within the project implementation it is supposed to build 10 compressor stations totally rated at 1516 MW. Transmitting capacity of gas pipelines system "Southern Corridor" will be 63 bln m3 of gas per year.  The project implementation period is from 2010 to 2017.

Overall length of gas pipelines of Western route including the bridge "compressor station "Kubanskaya" - compressor station "Korenovskaya" will equal 880,6 km and compressor stations will be rated at  574 MW.

The project is being implemented on the territory of 8 subjects of Russian Federation: Nizhny Novgorod, Penza, Saratov, Volgograd, Voronezh, Rostov Regions, Republic of Mordovia and Krasnodar Krai.
