JV Petrobrazi Industrial Platform

Brazi, Ploiesti, Romania / 10.2010 - 09.2013

The rail construction project JV Petrobrazi Industrial Platform covered the rehabilitation of the railway tracks within the Petrobrazi refinery near the city of Ploiesti.

The refinery had been built in the 1930s and the railway network installed there needed urgent renovation. PORR was in charge of modernising the industrial railway tracks, including water drainage.

Refined railway rehabilitation.

A special challenge was the execution of works without interrupting any activity of the refinery. After three years and a railway rehabilitation of a total of 55km, the contract was successfully completed.

What ultimately counts in the construction business is successfully completed projects. PORR has many of these.
