On the move in Siberia
October 1st 2003

Rubb Buildings associate company in Norway has delivered and erected two NV type buildings in Siberia for the German oil exploration company, Deutag. The structures one 25m wide by 48m long by 4m sidewall and the other slightly smaller at 25m wide by 45m long by 4m sidewall can be moved from site to site by the client as exploration moves from location to location. Apart from being used to house compressors and large tanks that are used to separate sludge from oil products, a key feature of the buildings is that they have been designed to be built around large diesel generators. Large doors in the structures (three are 5m high by 5m wide and one is 5m high by 6m wide) allow most of the equipment to be moved in and out. However, the generators are housed in 20ft containers and are designed to be transported from site to site. When exploration moves on, the Rubb structures are dismantled, the generators and other large items of equipment moved on, and the structures relocated to cover the hardware. The speed with which a Rubb building can be constructed, dismantled and relocated was of major importance in an area where the climate is so hostile.
