By Klavdiya Romakayeva - Trend:
Due to the implementation of an investment project to increase the production capacity of the Shurtan Gas Chemical Complex, 1.5 million tons of Euro-5 standard synthetic liquid fuel will be produced annually with the processing of 3.6 billion cubic meters of gas, Trend reports citing UzA.uz
Shurtan Gas Chemical Complex LLC located in the Kashkadarya region unites more than 150 enterprises. Every year, up to 3.9 billion cubic meters of natural gas are processed here, 3.5 billion cubic meters of commercial gas, more than 125,000 tons of polyethylene granules, 100,000 tons of liquefied gas, 100,000 tons of gas condensate, 1,500 tons of sulfur granules, over 750,000 square meters of aluminum composite panels, 4,500 tons of polyethylene pipes, hoses and fittings, as well as drip irrigation technology and other products.
As a result of processing 3.2 billion cubic meters of raw gas in 9M2020, the plan was fulfilled by 6.4 percent. Raw gas produced 2.8 billion cubic meters of natural gas, 101,900 tons of polyethylene, 90,200 tons of liquefied gas, 81,700 tons of gas condensate, and 800 tons of sulfur.
One of the projects implemented in the complex is the construction and installation work at a new substation with two 125 megavolt amperes transformers. The total cost of the substation is 81 billion soums ($7.82 million), the design work was carried out by the Sredneazenergosetproekt Institute. Equipment and electrical appliances were supplied by Uzelektroapparat, Power Electric Group, and Suosung (South Korea).
