Regional Highlights 45
Russia
Siemens has received a supply
and maintenance order worth
€630 million from Russian
Railways. Under the contract,
Siemens will deliver eight
high-speed Velaro RUS trains
and service them for the next
30 years. These trains, which
reach peak speeds of 250
km/hr, comprise ten cars and
can accommodate more than
600 passengers. The design
and project engineering work
is being carried out at Siemens
locations in Germany, where
the trains will also be manu-
factured.
South Africa
At Africa’s most modern hospi-
tal, Inkosi Albert Luthuli Cen-
tral Hospital in Durban, the
technical equipment – from
telephones to the IT system
and MR scanners – was sup-
plied in large part by Siemens.
The most remarkable feature
of this 850-bed facility is that
all laboratory reports, X-rays
and other patient data are
processed and stored electron-
ically in a single patient file.
The heart of this electronic
network is our syngo platform,
which enables seamless data
and image transfer between
all diagnostic and therapeutic
applications.
Gabon
For a rural electrification proj-
ect in Gabon, we’re installing
solar energy systems in 100
remote villages to power
water treatment equipment
and street lamps. We’ve engi-
neered the solar equipment
specifically for Africa: a special
paint withstands the effects
of the aggressive tropical cli-
mate, and the batteries are ex-
tremely durable. The project
has attracted the interest of
neighboring countries like
Cameroon, where large areas
are still not connected to pow-
er grids.
Azerbaijan
SOCAR, the Azerbaijani state
oil company, has awarded us
a contract to supply turboma-
chinery equipment for the
country’s oil and gas industry.
The order includes two com-
pressor trains, each comprising
one SGT-400 gas turbine driver
and a two-body compressor.
The equipment will be in-
stalled on a platform in the
Gunashli oil field, located in
the Azerbaijani waters of the
Caspian Sea. The units will
form part of a new gas com-
pression module designed to
extend the oil field’s produc-
tion life.
