Chelyabinsk Tube Rolling Plant came up with a performance report for the first quarter of 2011.

The enterprise’s steel pipe sales came to 488,000 tons, which is 45% better than in the first quarter of 2010. The sales of large-diameter pipes rose by 94%, OCTG sales went up by 26%, and the industrial pipe sales increased by 33%.

We launched a new, hi tech LDP department called Vysota 239 last year. This March, the department reached its full production capacity and manufactured 52,000 tons of goods. I am very proud of our plant team that managed so rapidly to complete the project as well as master the production process over an extremely short time period,’ says Chelyabinsk Tube Rolling Plant’s General Director Alexander Fedorov.
