"Soviet Oil Pipelines in the Far East" Unveil Their Significance in World War II Victory

At the Far Eastern Federal University and Pacific State University, educational events and gatherings are being organized for students, focusing on the role of the oil transportation industry during the Great Patriotic War (12+). According to IA PrimaMedia, these events are being arranged by "Transneft - Far East" to educate students about the contributions of Soviet pipeline builders to the war effort.

Thanks to the tenacity of Soviet pipeline engineers, fuel delivery to the frontlines and oil transportation from fields and bases to processing plants continued without any disruptions during this time. Field portable-assembled pipelines were tested and proven effective during the conflict.

For instance, the first oil pipeline in the Far East was constructed during the Great Patriotic War. It stretches from the island of Sakhalin, starting in Okha and crosses the bottom of the Tatar Strait to the mainland, reaching the village of Sofiisk in the Khabarovsk Territory. The underwater section is an impressive 9 kilometers, and the land section is 379 km. From Sofiisk, oil was transported by barges along the Amur River to the Komsomolsk-on-Amur (KNRZ) oil refinery, which ran 24/7 to meet the demands of the frontline during the war.

"Transneft - Far East" aims to enlighten students about the impact of Soviet pipeline builders on the victory by providing these educational events.

In May, further events will be held at the Far Eastern State Transport University (Khabarovsk), the Amur Multifunctional Center for Professional Qualifications (Belogorsk, Amur Region), and schools in regions served by "Transnefть - Dalniy Vostok".
