President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has launched the pipe rolling shop at the Belarusian Steel Works (BMZ trademark). The Head of State was informed that every year the shop will manufacture up to 250 thousand tons of hot-rolled seamless pipes which can be applied both in the municipal economy and oil and gas industries. The shop has been designed and equipped with cutting-edge gear in the shortest period – in 2,5 years. The new manufacture has created around 500 jobs. Belarusian machine-tool plants took part in the design, manufacture and assembly of the equipment for this facility.
