According to the Center for Public Investigations, information about the procurement was posted on the Prozorro website.

The customer was the municipal enterprise "Heat Supply of Odesa".

The tender for the overhaul of the building of the district boiler house "Severnaya-2" was announced on September 3. The process of submitting proposals lasts until September 19, and the next day an auction in the format of open bidding with special features is scheduled.

The winner has to restore the supporting structures, strengthen the foundation, install columns and beams, and restore the roof. The project also provides for the replacement of old lighting equipment with new LED lamps and floodlights.

The contractor is to complete all work by the end of December 2024.

In August, Odesa began reconstructing the pipe of the Pivnichna-2 boiler house, which collapsed during strong winds last year. According to Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov, UNICEF provided UAH 60 million in funding for the repair. Currently, the foundation is being arranged and a new pipe structure is being manufactured. The repairs are scheduled to be completed by November 1, 2024.

The Severnaya-2 boiler house provides heat to 120,000 Odessans and serves 10 kindergartens, nine schools and six medical institutions, the mayor emphasized. An expert opinion was provided by the Odesa State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture based on the results of the inspection and assessment of the technical condition of the structures.

It should be added that the pipe was built in 1989 and the last major overhaul took place in 2014. In 2020, the facility underwent a scheduled inspection and no defects were found.

The wind and blizzard that raged in Odesa region all day on November 26 led to the destruction of a boiler house pipe in Odesa, breaks in the power grid and the fall of more than 100 trees.
