Key Projects
  • From 2020 onwards, the company has been preparing design and working documentation for projects for the construction and reconstruction of oil and gas processing facilities. The design of facilities as part of the ethane-containing gas processing complex in the area of the Ust-Luga settlement and the Astrakhan gas processing plant is being carried out.

  • According to the projects of AO «ECS» in St. Petersburg, a fountain was installed at the spit of Vasilyevsky Island on the Neva. The project is also known as the «Floating Fountain». The fountain was opened on Russia Day, June 12, 2006. Thanks to the joint efforts of specialists, the fountain turned out to be one of the best in the world in terms of beauty, and at the same time, technically well-thought-out and mobile. The cost of construction was about 900 million rubles.

  • In 2011, by order of the government of St. Petersburg, the shipbuilding company Almaz built the multifunctional tug-icebreaker Nevskaya Zastava. The design was carried out in a very short time, so model tests of the hull of the new vessel were not carried out, only tests using the «dry basin» method. However, the authoritative Finnish design bureau Aker Arctic gave its opinion on the project, which highly appreciated the icebreaking qualities of the vessel.
