Rooppur is a nuclear power plant under construction under the Russian project NPP-2006. The chosen site for the construction of the station is located on the east bank of the Padma River, 160 kilometers from the capital of Bangladesh, Dhaka.
In the autumn of 2013, the first stone was laid in the foundation of the future power plant. The station will consist of two power units with modern VVER-1200 reactors with a capacity of 1200 MW each, the life cycle of which is 60 years with the possibility of extending for another 20 years.
Delivery of goods to Bangladesh is a difficult and long question. ZVK BERVEL specialists have worked out the issue of reliability of fastener packaging in such delivery conditions to minimize the negative impact on the plant’s products of any external factors. The most convenient way to deliver is by water. A port with mobile and very powerful cranes was built specifically for unloading ships for this project.
>Over the past year, we have strengthened our position in the project by concluding an agreement for the next supply of fasteners. ZVK "BERVEL" facilities are ready to provide the facility with products until the construction is completed. As expected, the Rooppur NPP will be commissioned sequentially: the first unit will begin work in 2023, and the second in 2024.
By developing new countries and facilities, ZVK BERVEL aims to expand its borders and consolidate the company’s success on a continental level.
