The company is considering two financing scenarios for these investments “The right road link between Berceni and Oltenita for heavy freight transportation is a vital element for the future development of FECNE,” said Tosto The Romanian plant has already signed its first contract and will manufacture eight reactors of 260 tons each for the Chinese market. In addition, around 1,200 components of a fusion reactor will be manufactured locally. WT is part of a consortium that in 2010 signed a contract to supply the vacuum vessel of the ITER a scientific experiment that aims to prove the viability of fusion as an energy source Tosto said that Romanian engineers will be trained for the ITER project in 2012 and 2013 The company will develop a three-tier training program in Romania which targets vocational schools The Italian manufacturer has 485 employees and estimates a turnover of EUR 90 million this year. The company has orders worth EUR 232 million through to 2016. Some of its largest clients are Petrobras, Chevron, ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips.

From here, the giants left went to Oltenita, from where they were transported directly to the client. For an order that involves the construction of several similar pieces of equipment separate projects must be developed for each of them companies claim that taxes applied to large-scale transport at the local level are several times higher than in other EU countries Furthermore, there is a danger that the transport infrastructure that is currently under construction will not facilitate the exit routes to the Danube of factories that produce very large parts. If an oversized transport route to the Danube is not assured, then the great competitive advantage of factories in Bucharest, namely the distance of only 50 kilometers from the Danube, could be nullified. “Constant dicusssions are maintained with CNAIR representatives regarding the modernization project of the Bucharest Ring Road as well as the construction of the Ring Road Motorway unless an access corridor for for oversized transport to Oltenita is not built,” say representatives of Walter Tosto WTB Tradition continues, but investments make the difference Walter Tosto WTB can also boast other pressure equipment it has built and delivered a proof that Romanian industry can still perform this was only possible after considerable investments from the owner of Walter Tosto SpA the factory has unique machines in Romania and even in SE Europe Walter Tosto WTB is due to increase its production capacity with a new factory under construction in Oltenita which will have a surface area of ​​72,000 square meters and will be ready in the spring of next year The advantage of these units is their proximity to the Danube making transport of parts to customers much easier Romanian Association for Pressure Equipment & collaboration with other industries Walter Tosto WTB initiated and founded ARPE – the Romanian Association for Pressure Equipment – whose members include a majority of local manufacturers of pressure equipment as well as companies that operate horizontally the association has established collaboration protocols with other associations such as: ROMATOM – for the nuclear industry ARPE representatives actively participate in events that discuss topics related to the energy industry within events organized by Chambers of Commerce or establish discussions with representatives of state-owned companies and ministries to highlight problems that members encounter or to address the smooth development of the relationships that involve the interaction between the members and these entities A project that could provide a lot of work for the remaining Romanian heavy industry is the rehabilitation of Unit 1 of Cernavoda because there is enough capacity and knowledge to build part of the necessary parts internally the estimated cost of the works being EUR 1.5 billion the factories are waiting to see whether something else will be implemented with Units 3 and 4 but almost nothing has been done in this regard It would be over EUR 7 billion worth of investment of which the contribution of the local industry in the supply of equipment can reach 30 percent or even more “The products manufactured within the Walter Tosto WTB are found on all continents attracting the attention of the largest beneficiaries in the Energy and Nuclear industries other profile companies which are part of ARPE may be involved in the future Even if they’re not all at the same technological level and do not have the same production capacity they have chosen to actively participate in specific events in their industry or other industrial branches connecting and presenting their products and the services they provide The involvement of Walter Tosto WTB in nuclear projects will also draw attention to the importance of the existence of the ARPE association whose members we support in obtaining authorizations from CNCAN and CNCIR,” said Lucian Rusu president of ARPE and vice president of ROMATOM Walter Tosto WTB is the only local company that can manufacture large equipment for the Romanian Chemical It has an annual turnover of over EUR 20 million over 250 employees and works almost exclusively on export Fecne has been the main factory for the supply of reactors heat exchangers and heavy welded structures for nuclear power plants in Romania Fecne entered a judicial reorganization process attracted by its unique production capabilities in terms of weight and dimensions of equipment that can be made new equipment and modern facilities for employees Walter Tosto has 70 years of experience in manufacturing equipment for the processing industry and is today one of the world’s largest manufacturers of high pressure equipment and containers.In addition to the factory in Bucharest Walter Tosto Group owns factories in Italy in Chieti which is directly connected to the main international ports and routes
