A strong story about the actual construction of the pipeline in India
A strong story about the actual construction of the pipeline in India and the specifics of working in this country.
Three years ago we built in India gas pipeline "East-West". Pipeline crossing the whole of India - from the city of Kakinada on the coast of the Bay of Bengal to Mumbai and industrial Gujarat. Most of the gas pipeline built Chinese companies, we also went to the eastern part - for this part of the Chinese do not want to take any price, so were difficult construction conditions: the route passes through the mountains and rice fields.
Its section of the pipeline, we pulled in Andhra Pradesh, from the city of Kakinada to Chilakalu total length - 350 km., The path crosses the Grand River Krishna
and Godavari
At first glance, the technology of the pipeline is not so difficult:
1. Marking the track, the layout of pipes
Welding
Trenching
Laying pipe in the trench
Backfilling
Test tubes
Device control equipment
Reclamation route
- It is not an accident, and normal working time - followed by explanations.
One of the main problems was the construction of the Indian climate - wet sticky heat and monsoon - the rains for a period of 2-3 months. The river overflows its banks, even flooded bridges
Appliances stuck in thick mud, the pace of construction declined sharply
Here
or:
On the road was full of snakes - their first feared, then accustomed
is near the town
Arrogant monkey climbed anywhere and strive to acquire havchik workers
A major problem was simple Indian farmers
Such are the seemingly respectable workers beaten at night guards, poured diesel fuel from machinery, welding cable and cut tyrili do all that is possible (in a warehouse even removed the barbed wire fence warehouse).
Resist this was easy, as the guard was armed only with bamboo whistles yes, and farmers groups attacked a man 10-15.
Had to be on duty at night in particularly difficult areas, and at times - and fight with them, and deliver them to the police. Police catch them did not help, because it was local and, of course, first of all sympathized with her. But detainees us criminals still planted - where to go, just caught.
To be honest, I have not once, not twice commemorated the good word of Pavlik Morozov with his attitude to these kulak face. Oh, we rushed to condemn Pavlik - something well, obviously as a kid was right!
We lived in a two base camps - in villages and Chilakalu Mirdzhapur, here in these trailers:
Our only street Friendship morning
and evening
Such was the street after a week of strikes gardener - overgrown all to hell!
It looks like a house inside
Brigade also lived in hotels in Kakinada
and Rajahmundry
Working team we had international. Since the Russian welders for fifteen hundred dollars to us did not want to go, guys worked from Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan. Worked as experts from the United States, the Netherlands, Turkey.
A lot of Indians work - and welders
and mechanics
and drivers
and cook
and translators
Translator - one that is bald, his name is Sunil.
Stalin - the operator of the pump. Got a piston for what was in the workplace without a helmet and badge, climbing helmet for
Very we became friends with them - wonderful people, honestly. Hard-working, cheerful, if friends - that forever
Bosom druzhbany - Brigadier Babenko and Srinivasa Rao village headman
Despite all the problems, we completed the project on time and even won the prize of the Customer (company Reliance), as the most foremost production throughout the project
