Sougueur-Hadjret Ennous gas pipeline

Stroytransgaz signed a contract on EPC terms in 2005 with the Algerian national company SONATRACH to build the Sougueur-Hadjret Ennous gas pipeline. The project was designed to ensure delivery of natural gas to the Hadjret Ennous electric power station in Tipas and to residential areas in the central part of the country.

Construction of the Sougueur-Hadjret Ennous gas pipeline was one of the largest public projects in Algeria to have been realized by a Russian contractor. Work included building a 273-kilometer pipeline of 42 inches diameter with initial and end-point terminals, a system to regulate pressure and measure gas volume, 12 valve stations and tie-in to compressor station and installation of a SCADA system, telecommunications, cathodic protection, and instrumentation.

Design and procurement were carried out by Stroytransgaz subsidiary STG Engineering.

Work was completed in 2007.
