Abstract

On march 9, 2005 the Russian OMK Group and Danieli signed the order for the supply of for the new CRC (Casting Rolling Complex) plant to be constructed in Vyksa, Nizhny Novgorod Region. The plant will produce 1.2 Mtpy HRC hot rolled coils for producing pipes ranging from 21 to 530 mm diameter in the OMK Group production plants in Vyksa and Almetyevsk. The plant will be the first thin slab casting & rolling plant installed in Russia and the first in the world specifically conceived for the production of API grades for arctic applications using thin slab process route. The final choice by OMK of Danieli as technological suppliers was based on the optimum technological level of the equipment proposed by Danieli and on the successful tests made in Danieli reference plant for the production of HR coils according to OMK metallurgical request (refer to the paper describing the test for X 70 grades campaign in Ezz plant, Egypt).
