Hungarian company Ganz EEM has signed contracts for the supply of pumping plants for the Baltic NPP and the unit of Rostov NPP

The signed contracts imply the supply of 9 pumps designed for the integrated pump station of the cooling system of the basic facilities of the 4th unit of the Rostov NPP and 8 pumping plants for the water supply to the turbine condensers of the 1st and the 2nd unit of the Baltic NPP. The pumps for the Rostov NPP will have been delivered until the end of July, 2013, for the Baltic NPP – until the end of 2016.

“The new contracts are the evidence of the demand for the products of Ganz EEM in the Russian market. Since the beginning of the year the company’s orders portfolio has increased by the factor of seven, and presently it makes up almost 40 million EUROS. More than half, 23 million EUROS of this amount, is accounted for by Russian orders,” said Director General of Atomenergomash Andrei Nikipelov. “The products of Ganz EEM will enable us to optimize significantly out integrated proposal in the market of pumping equipment for NPPs,” he noted.  

The lion share of Ganz EEM’s contracts is also accounted for by manufacture and supply of the transfer equipment for Leningrad NPP-2, as well as reconstruction (performed in 2012) of the transfer equipment for Mochovce NPP (Slovakia) and Dukovany NPP (Czech Republic). In addition to equipment for NPPs Ganz ЕЕМ manufactures pumping equipment, hydraulic turbines and equipment for oil industry and spare parts.
     
“We have modernized the laboratory for hydraulic equipment tests. In order to ensure more efficient and economical fulfillment of orders, we are presently modernizing the train of machines with the support of Atomenergomash,” said Director General of Ganz EEM Attila-Sitar Chanadi.

Ganz EEM is closely cooperating with the Russian nuclear industry. In 1985 the predecessor of Ganz EEM - Ganz Mavag, supplied fuel transfer equipment for the 2nd power generating unit at Kalinin NPP. After joining Atomenergomash Holding the Hungarian company has again gained access to the Russian market after an interruption of 30 years. In 2011 the plant delivered a set of boom-mounted manipulators for OOO Spetsproekt with the value in excess of 0.5 million EUROS. In 2012 Ganz EEM shipped 9 pumps intended for the 3d power generating unit of Rostov NPP. All in all,  Ganz EEM ensures the supply of 18 cooling system pumps for the 3d and 4th units of Rostov NPP.
