NIIK is involved into the large project in Gubaha

NIIK is taking part in the construction project of ammonia –urea-melamine production complex in Gubakha (Metafrax company)

NIIK has a great deal of experience in realizing design and construction projects, including construction of utility networks and industrial facilities for green field sites. Large part of this experience was accumulated during construction of ammonium- methanol- urea complex in Tatarstan with participation of NIIK in all stages of project implementation from the beginning up to the end.

The positive experience is further being applied in Gubakha project. Capital construction management service was created to provide comprehensive communication and coordination between design team, construction facilities and logistics&supply. The specialists manage the construction process on site, arrange business logistics, ensure quality control during construction, accept the works and set the facilities into operation.

One of the features of the construction area is its location on the slope of a hill which required the development of nonstandard solutions and dividing the entire area into several sites for placing the units. At the end of February the first package of detailed documentation was forwarded to the customer according to design schedule.

The concrete works for the most part of buildings will be carried out jointly with Turkish company STELLAR CONSTRUCTION. The start of works is planned for the beginning of March. Currently the works are performed for out-door water-supply and sewerage networks and structures. More than 5 km of underground utilities& pipelines were laid.

The design of temporary buildings and structures has been approved with the customer, the modular buildings have been ordered and the pile foundations were laid. Works on vertical planning and installation of fencing are now in progress.

The prilling tower which is the most important object of ISBL scope will be erected at the third site. NIIK has performed adaptation of the basic design, developed authority package and detailed design. It is also providing field supervision.

Every month the actual status of the project is discussed at the meetings among Metafrax top managers and companies subcontractors. At the beginning of February Mr.V. Daut, General Director of Metafrax company has visited the construction site together with the representatives of subcontractors- NIIK and Uralenergostroy. The participants have inspected the areas for future construction.
