KAMAZ PTC and its official partner RIAT JSC participate in the import substitution of equipment for intensification of gas and oil production. Recently, tests of a hydraulic fracturing fleet have been successfully completed at one of the fields in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Region, which will make it possible to start the mass vehicle production.

The key developer of the hydraulic fracturing fleet equipment and the testing site became JSC Corporation Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology and FNPC Titan-Barricades. At the facilities of FNPC Titan-Barricades, factory and then bench tests were carried out, and the bench base was created specifically for the hydraulic fracturing fleet and has no analogues in Russia (there are only a few in the world).

For 7 types of units of this hydraulic fracturing fleet, RIAT has manufactured special chassis with various wheel arrangements. Among them are KAMAZ–65221 (6x6.1), 6560 (8x8.1), 7330 (10x8.1), modified in compliance with the requirements of JJSC Corporation Moscow Institute of Thermal Technology and FNPC Titan-Barricades for the installed equipment of the hydraulic fracturing fleet.

Power units with inline 6-cylinder diesel engines of 689.510-400 model were installed on specially loaded chassis of 8x8.1 and 10x8.1 vehicles, and the necessary improvements were made in accordance with the technical specifications of the developers. RIAT plans to continue supplying KAMAZ special chassis for the hydraulic fracturing fleet created by partner companies as part of the import substitution of imported equipment for oil and gas production.
