Rosseti FGC UES upgrades backbone 500 kV transmission line in Tyumen region

08/19/2021

Rosseti FGC UES (FGC UES, PJSC) has completed repairing the Demyanskaya - Tobol 500 kV transmission line. This is an interconnecting link between the 500 kV power hubs that participate in the supply of electricity to the cluster of Uvat and Tobol oil fields in the Tyumen region. The work has improved the reliability of power supply to the oil pumping and compressor stations of the mainline pipe systems, oil production facilities, and one of the region's major electricity consumer, SIBUR Holding.

The line's damaged insulation has been replaced with new one of higher electrical strength and the earth wire has been repaired so as to minimize the adverse effects of lightnings. Anchor loop conductor lengths have also been adjusted on the supports and vibration dampers have been installed to prevent high-frequency oscillations of the conductor caused by the moving air masses.

The Demyanskaya - Tobol 500 kV line is 164.4 km long.
