On the eve of the International RUSSIA EXPO the voting for the main achievements of the country is under way. The Chelyabinsk region has submitted 19 nominees.

Among the main achievements of the region is the "Vysota 239" ("Height 239") workshop. This is Europe’s largest production facility for large-diameter steel pipes. It is thanks to the products of the Chelyabinsk Tube Rolling Plant that the key gas and oil pipelines of the country have been built: "Druzhba", Bukhara — Urals, Central Asia — Center, Urengoy — Pomary — Uzhgorod, Surgut — Polotsk, "Siyaniye Severa" ("Shining of the North").

The Chelyabinsk Pipe Rolling Plant is constantly mastering new techniques and unique methods. For example, it was here that thee production of water-gas pipes created using continuous furnace welding was launched for the first time. In addition, it is the local production facility that can boast of variable cross-section pipes, which no one else in the world makes.

Thanks to the launch of "Vysota 239" welding shop, the country can use solely domestic large-diameter pipes. Its products can be used in permafrost, at the bottom of the ocean and in earthquake-prone areas.

At the moment, "Vysota 239" has collected almost 3,000 votes and is in fourth place. The large-scale project to eliminate a large landfill has received the most support. The second place is occupied by the "Taganai" National Park, and the third place goes to the Regional Center for Oncology and Nuclear Medicine.
