Automated train operation demonstrated
https://ift.tt/2L7wPtK  RUSSIA: ‘This is truly a step into the future’, said Deputy Prime Minister Maxim Akimov when automated operation of an electric multiple-unit was demonstrated at the Pro//Motion.Expo trade fair at the Shcherbinka test centre near Moscow on August 28. ‘It was made by Russian engineers, in our technical centres and by Russian Railways’, he said. The Sinara/Siemens ES2G Lastochka EMU can be operated fully automatically, with control centre staff able to intervene if required· It can also be driven manually by a driver located either in the cab or at the control centre. Further trials are to be undertaken, and the possible introduction of automated operation on high-volume, high-frequency routes such as the 54 km Moscow Central Ring is being considered, although this would require legal changes. RZD Chief Executive Oleg Belozerov said drivers would be retained onboard to supervise automated operation, stressing that ‘their responsibilities will change, but people will still monitor the systems‘. The use of driverless locomotives within large freight yards is also being considered. ‘We are very close to perfecting unmanned technology’, said Belozerov. I want to say thanks to all of our developers: we use only Russian systems. Moreover, I can say that we are one year ahead of our foreign colleagues. RZD is committed to unmanned driving technology, primarily because it will increase safety and reliability, especially for passengers.’ News in English - Add to site via RSS Russia https://ift.tt/2MzfdIP August 29, 2019 at 03:34PM
Russian container handlers increase volume
https://ift.tt/2ZEVzNY During H1 2019, Russia’s seaports (including those of annexed Crimea) increased their total container handling volume by 5.2% year-on-year to around 2.6M TEU Russia’s Baltic harbours (Petrolesport, Saint Petersburg) handled half the overall volume, or 1.34M TEU (up 7.6% year-on-year), including 1.1M TEU (up 5.9%) in the Big Port of Saint Petersburg, which includes Bronka and Kotlin Island. The country’s Pacific harbours handled 831,860 TEU (+ 7.6%). Vladivostok and Vostochny accounted respectively for 482,210 TEU (up 11.1%) and 196,530 TEU (down 2.9%). Aggregate volume in the Black Sea/Sea of Azov was around 400,000 TEU (down 2.2%). The Arctic ports increased their volume by 4.3% to 72,000 TEU, including 27,600 TEU (up 29.6%) in Murmansk. The Caspian ports (mainly Astrakhan) handled just 1,300 TEU, (up 38.8%). During calendar 2018, overall container traffic nationally increased by 9.8% to 5.08M TEU. According to local market analysts, container handlers may be able to expand aggregate handling volume by up to 10% a year for the next few years, depending on certain macro- and micro-economic factors. For example, more bulk cargoes, such as coal, grain and sunflower oil, are being containerised and attracting higher prices for the shippers, leading to an increase in currency exchange rates and easing the effects of international economic sanctions against Moscow. On the other hand, while there are plans to develop a new general cargo port in Primorsk, Russia’s Baltic container handling market is already oversupplied and in any case faces competition from transit gates in the Baltic Republics and in Finland. 0 Links News in English - Add to site via Portnews http://en.portnews.ru August 30, 2019 at 05:44AM
Meeting with Acting Governor of the Trans-Baikal Territory Alexander Osipov
https://ift.tt/2Lf9wNw The Acting Governor updated the President on wildfire relief measures and socioeconomic development plans in the region. 
Alexander Osipov reported that close to 900 people had been affected and nearly 120 families had lost their houses following the tremendous wildfires in April 2019. To date, 85 families have been provided with housing, and 33 families are now in the process of building or buying housing. Reconstruction works are underway on bridges, water intake systems and social facilities. The key priority is to assist with the restoration of the agricultural facilities: the 120 cattle camps that have been destroyed by fires are being rebuilt. The Acting Governor thanked the President for signing the Executive Order on wildfire relief measures in the Trans-Baikal Territory, which has helped in the reconstruction of the destroyed facilities. Mr Osipov noted that a socioeconomic development plan had been prepared for the territory in association with the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East and other federal ministries. It provides for the investment of 1.3 trillion rubles, which will almost double the regional GDP and help create 60,000 new jobs. The implementation of this plan will also allow decreasing subsidies to the region by one-third by 2024 and one-half by 2026, so that ultimately the Trans-Baikal Territory will become a non-subsidised region. The Acting Governor also reported on the creation of a priority development area. Alexander Osipov, who was appointed acting governor in October 2018, said it is the first time for several years that industrial production, the retail trade and the volume of paid services had started growing, and that the unemployment level had decreased by 1 percent. Construction and renovation projects are underway at over 120 major facilities within the framework of national projects, including schools, kindergartens, physical fitness and sports facilities. The Acting Governor also updated the President on the plans for the renovation of the social infrastructure, which calls for federal assistance, just as in the case of housing and utilities. Only 100 out of the 880 populated localities in the region have a public water supply system, but its depreciation rate is estimated at 80 percent. The depreciation rate in power generation is 80 percent as well. This calls for adopting a special programme, which is being prepared and coordinated with the Ministry of Construction, as well as for providing support for the reconstruction of housing and utilities infrastructure. Other matters, including the construction of a mining and smelting facility at the Udokan copper deposit, as well as high energy prices in the Trans-Baikal Territory were also discussed.

Gazprom Neft increases sales of environmentally friendly marine fuels
https://ift.tt/2ZnpMot Gazpromneft Marine Bunker, operator of the Gazprom Neft bunkering business, increased sales of ultra-low sulphur fuels in H1 2019, reaching 121,400 tonnes — the bulk of these sales, comprising high-tech oil products with a sulphur content of less than 0.1 percent, consistent with the requirements of the MARPOL Convention,* and intended for use in SECA shipping zones** — occurring at ports in Russia’s North—West Region, predominantly through the Port of St Petersburg. [/upload/medialibrary/09e/160819.png] Gazprom Neft’s total sales of marine fuels in the first six months of 2019 were up 23 percent year-on-year, at 1.53 million tonnes. Sales throughout ports in Russia’s North—West Region were up 26 percent, to 857,500 tonnes, and in the Black Sea Region were up 14 percent, reaching 503,200 tonnes. Bunkering of river vessels on Russia’s internal waterways was also up 90 percent, at 106,300 tonnes. Gazprom Neft is continuing the proactive expansion of its product range, increasing sales of environmentally friendly marine and hybrid fuels with a maximum 0.5 percent sulphur content, produced at its Moscow and Omsk Oil Refineries. In addition to this, the company is, in the medium term, considering LNG bunkering as an alternative to traditional marine fuel, and intends to develop a new LNG bunkering market for the domestic shipping industry. To that end, Gazprom Neft has initiated the introduction of an international standard for LNG bunkering in Russian shipping, and has also begun developing a project — one unique within the industry — to build the first LNG bunker in Russia. This LNG bunker is expected to be commissioned in 2021 and will facilitate LNG ship refueling at ports throughout Russia’s North—West Region.

Gazprom Neft’s Omsk Refinery supports Russian industrial equipment manufacturers
https://ift.tt/2Hng9fm Gazprom Neft is due to take delivery of large-scale equipment for diesel-fuel hydrotreatment and dewaxing facilities currently under the construction at its Omsk Refinery from Russian manufacturer Izhorskiye Zavody.* This future complex is intended to replace two outdated facilities at once, facilitating a two-fold increase in the production of winter and Arctic diesel fuels. The project, involving a total investment of RUB17.5 billion, forms a major part of a development programme at the Omsk Refinery under implementation by Gazprom Neft since 2008. [/upload/medialibrary/23c/news_1308199.jpg] The steam-stripping column produced by specialists at Izhorskiye Zavody is designed to process the final purification of fuels from hydrogen-containing gases. Special heat-resistant steels were selected for this key equipment at the future complex, and cutting-edge anti-corrosion treatments applied. The 37-metre-high column, which weighs 400 tonnes, will be delivered to Omsk from the Leningrad Oblast via the Northern Sea Route later this autumn.

Meeting with heads of coal-mining regions
https://ift.tt/2ZkuZxu Vladimir Putin held a meeting with the governors of Russia’s coal-producing regions to discuss the current state of the coal industry and its development strategy. 
The meeting was attended by the heads of the Government’s economic bloc, competent ministries, as well as Head of the Komi Republic Sergei Gaplikov, Head of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) Aisen Nikolayev, Head of the Republic of Khakassia and Chairman of the Khakassian Republican Government Valentin Konovalov, Governor of Krasnoyarsk Territory Alexander Uss, Acting Governor of Trans-Baikal Territory Alexander Osipov, Governor of Kemerovo Region Sergei Tsivilyov and Governor of Novosibirsk Region Andrei Travnikov. Energy Minister Alexander Novak, the main speaker, reported on the industry’s progress in the past decade, including increased coal mining, investment and labour productivity, and on the exploration of new deposits and the introduction of new technologies. The report also touched on the growth of Russia’s share in world coal trade, transport and port infrastructure development and on upgrading the programme for the industry’s development. According to the Minister, the most urgent issues are developing the Eastern section of the rail network in line with the Russian Railways Development Programme to 2025, which supports the shipping of coal eastward, including for export, considering the programme’s future to 2035, and resolving the issue of long-term tariffs to stabilise the industry’s performance in the long run. Vladimir Putin stressed the need to align efforts to increase coal mining and develop infrastructure, as well as the need to be aware of certain threats and risks related to dependency on foreign markets, considering their volatility. The meeting took place ahead of Miners’ Day that is marked in Russia on the last Sunday of August. * * * Speech at a meeting with heads of coal-mining regions President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Good afternoon, colleagues. We are meeting today on the eve of a special occasion, Miners’ Day. So, first of all, I would like wish you and not only you, but also and primarily those who are involved in the industry, long-time miners and their families all the very best on the upcoming event. I would like to greet everybody whose life is dedicated to the production of coal, one of the most important and essential sectors of the Russian economy. A miner’s hard and often high-risk job enjoys great and well-deserved respect in our country. A miner’s tough character is formed through hard work and is passed down from generation to generation. We know how miners rose to the challenge during the most difficult times our country was experiencing, the years of hardships, including the Great Patriotic War, when women worked in the coalmines alongside men. Our glorious miners have always demonstrated courage, integrity, perseverance and earnest work. Numerous families of miners that we are so proud of continue the strong traditions of this profession. The coal-mining industry has been making a tremendous contribution to this country’s development for almost 300 years. The industry now posts good coal production volumes and a confident export potential, as well as substantial growth prospects at new coal deposits, including those in Siberia and the Far East. We will get back to this once again today. Large-scale plans are also linked with the development of logistics and the coal-mining industry’s transport infrastructure, including efforts to expand the capacity of the Baikal-Amur Mainline and that of seaports in eastern and western Russia. We discussed this matter at our meeting in Kuzbass a year ago. I know that there are some questions regarding the fulfilment of the agreements that were reached. We discussed this on an ongoing basis. Today, we will review current activities and what should be done, as well as some aspects that should be adjusted in the context of the situation on global and domestic markets The heads of the Russian regions where the coal-mining industry plays a key role are represented at the meeting. Quite often, the coal-mining industry acts as the main employer, and the well-being of regional residents and their quality of life directly depend on its development. It is important that you and your teams maintain permanent working contacts, as well as substantive dialogue with the shareholders and managers of coal-mining and coal-processing companies. Topical problems, primarily the creation of safe and worthy working conditions for miners, are effectively addressed in areas where such cooperation has been streamlined, and where such work is conducted in the interests of the people. I would like to note that expanded coal production should go hand in hand with the active introduction of modern technologies, greater investment in reliable safety systems and the implementation of programmes stipulating social support for corporate workers and regional communities in general. And, of course, it is necessary to focus on environmental matters. It is dangerous and therefore unacceptable to try to produce millions of tonnes of coal to the detriment of the environment. Nor should we forget how people live and what problems they face, we should know whether their family members have ample employment opportunities, as well as whether they have enough preschool, healthcare and education facilities, and besides this, we should deal with improving miners’ cities and towns. We know that all these highly important and significant matters directly affect dozens and even hundreds of thousands of people. Their total number is about one million, especially if we include their families. We will discuss all these matters today. I am sure that miners in Russia will achieve new results, while relying on the experience of their predecessors and using the entire arsenal of advanced engineering solutions. I would like to wish each and every one of you, all miners, their families and retired workers all the very best on the occasion of the upcoming Miners’ Day. Let us start discussing our working matters. <…> News in English - Add to site via Website of the President of Russia http://en.kremlin.ru/ August 22, 2019 at 02:51PM
