Russula opens office in Yaroslavl
Russula is pleased to announce the opening of its 6th
international office in Yaroslavl, Russian Federation.
The opening of the new office will boost Russula´s presence
within the Russian market.
In 2011-2012, Russula provided the design, equipment
supply and construction supervision of a water treatment
plant for the JSC Severstal Long Product Mill Balakovo
located in the Saratov region. During the course
of the project Russula settled permanently in Russia,
opening an office in Yaroslavl, which is responsible for
serving the entire country.
Over the past two years, Russula has provided the
engineering, mechanical and electrical equipment
supply, construction supervision, testing and
commissioning of a complete water treatment plant for
Severstal´s new 1 Mtpy state-of-the-art steel plant,
located in the Balakovo, Saratov region in Russia.
“Russula´s water treatment plant technology is unique
in that it is designed specifically for the steel industry.
The closed loop circuit reutilizes rain and melted snow
from the region making it a very ecofriendly process.”
says General manager Ruslan Shulegin of LLC
Russula Engineering in Russia.
Yaroslavl was selected as the new office location due to
its convenient location and availability of qualified
technical staff. The city is located 260 km from the Russian
capital Moscow; its close proximity to airports and
transportation hubs allows easy travel mobility around
Russia. At the same time Yaroslavl is a developed industrial
city with a high level of education to ensure the
selection of qualified technical staff.
“Overall we believe that Russia has great potential for
new projects such as the modernization and renovation
of existing metallurgical facilities. Using process
control to improve product quality has become a key
topic recently among Russian rolling mills. Electrical
revamps are Russula´s core competence with over 240
projects successfully completed worldwide.” affirms
Ruslan Shulegin.
