Atomenergomash, the mechanical engineering division of the Russian state-run nuclear corporation Rosatom, has completed construction of Europe’s first, and the world’s third, LNG plant test bench.
The test bench will be used for medium-and high-capacity LNG plants’ equipment, the company explained.
"The unit was built on the NIIEFA (the Efremov Research Institute of Electrical-Physical Equipment - TASS) site. The permit to commission the facility has been obtained. The project was implemented in accordance with the resolution of the Russian Government," the company said.
It is planned to use the facility for certification tests of domestic and imported equipment for LNG production. It can also be adapted to test other equipment.
