HISTORY

n 1978, Government of Pakistan (GoP) decided to federalize five

important inter-provincial roads named “National Highways" and Icreated the National Highway Board for monitoring the development

and maintenance of these federalized roads by provincial Highway

Departments.

The National Highway Authority (NHA) was created, in 1991, through an

Act of the Parliament, for planning, development, operation, repair and

maintenance of National Highways and Strategic Roads specially

entrusted to NHA by the Federal Government or by a Provincial

Government or other authority concerned. Total length of the federalized

roads under NHA now stands at 8780 Km, account for 3% of the entire

road network and 75% of the commercial road traffic in the country.

NHA is custodian of the Highway assets of Pakistan's road network. It is

committed to provide a safe, modern and efficient transportation system.

As the cornerstone of tomorrow's Highway network, National Highways

function as the backbone of Pakistan's transportation system, play an

important role in the development of micro and macro economy and also

enhance the national integration by increasing the social and economic

dependence between the Provinces.

TECHNOLOGY REVIEW

9 Pakistan Construction & Quarry October 2012

ase Construction Equipment announced the launch of its model 570N XT loader/tool carrier, offering enhanced fuel economy and productivity, along with Csuperior breakout force and reach.

The Case 570N XT loader/tool carrier achieves Tier 4 Interim certification through the use of cooled exhaust gas recirculation (CEGR) technology and a diesel particulate filter. The machine features a Case turbo charged engine rated at 78 net hp (58 kW) that delivers a minimum five-percent increase in fuel efficiency and faster response times than previous models, while meeting current emission standards.

“The Case 570N XT combines proven emission-control technology with a slightly smaller, more efficient engine to achieve better fuel economy. It delivers Tier 4 Interim certification, without sacrificing power or productivity,” said Katie Pullen, Case brand marketing manager. “The new model also offers important enhancements to the operator environment and delivers on the well-earned Case reputation for ease of serviceability.”

The Case 570N XT boosts productivity and efficiency by retaining more material during the dump cycle. To help reduce material spillage during roading, Case offers the 570N XT with optional Ride Control. The three-point hitch with variable-flow hydraulics delivers greater precision and lift capacities. An optional hydraulic power takeoff and dual tilt on the box blade provide more versatility and ditching capabilities.

The Case 570N XT loader/tool carrier offers the same power train components that are standard on the Case brand's industry-leading N Series loader/backhoes, including the

engine, axles, four-speed transmission and power-assist brakes. Four-wheel drive is a standard feature on the 570N XT.

“With power-assist brakes, the operator doesn't need to apply full force to stop the machine,” said Pullen. “This not only extends the brake life, it also reduces operator fatigue.”

Designed to perform a variety of applications for landscaping, construction and utility contractors, as well as agricultural applications, the Case 570N XT has an operating weight of 12,898 lb (5851 kg), bucket breakout force of 9,271 lb (41 239 N) and hinge pin height of 11 ft 3 in (3.41 m). The machine's front loader features an optional hydraulic quick coupler to easily connect and disengage buckets and other attachments.

Design maximizes operator control, comfort, visibility

The Case 570N XT puts full control at the operator's fingertips with an integrated loader control panel. A low-profile canopy option assures operators of excellent visibility from the seat. The optional, air-conditioned cab with floor-to-ceiling glass enhances both comfort and visibility for the operator.

The operator seat swivels 15 or 30 degrees to the side to reduce fatigue during three-point hitch operation. Specially designed rear fenders on the 570N XT provide maximum visibility to rear attachments.

Easy serviceability speeds daily maintenance

The Case 570N XT simplifies daily maintenance to maximize uptime. No-tool forward-tilting hood, vertical spin-on filters and grouped, ground-level service checks streamline engine access and routine maintenance. Service technicians can maintain axles and brakes easily without complete dis-assembly.

of oil equivalent per day to OMV in 2014 and therefore be La key contributor to reaching core country status in

Pakistan. OMV Executive Board Member responsible for

exploration and production Jaap Huijskes said, “This is a clear

win-win situation. Pakistan receives the confirmed Latif gas

reserves at a very low price, even the incremental production

will be delivered at prices well below competitive fuels.”

“Nevertheless the new pricing guidelines as per Petroleum

Policy 2012 for incremental production provides OMV and joint

venture partners with sufficient incentive to make new

investments to prove and develop new reserves,” he said, adding

that on the basis of this new commercial agreement OMV will

initiate drilling four development wells immediately instead of

two that were committed in the field development plan. The

total cost for development is $142 million. It was planned to

commence production from Latif field through Sawan plant in

late 2013 with the aim to achieve a plateau production of around

100 million of standard cubic feet per day. The development will

comprise drilling of new wells, and construction of a 50

kilometer pipeline to transport Latif gas to OMV operated

Sawan gas plant where Latif gas will be processed and thereafter

delivered to customers. Sawan plant is a state-of-the-art sour

gas processing plant which was constructed, and has been

operated by OMV since start-up in 2003. Sawan field's own

akistan plans to start exporting 1,000 megawatt of

electricity from Turkmenistan through the territory of PAfghanistan from 2016. In particular, under the project,

Turkmen electricity supplies to Pakistan may hit 1,000

megawatt. The cost of the project is one billion dollar, while all

the preparations are made for the required investment in the

project. The financial matter would be finalized till

2013.Transport capacity at this stage allows Turkmenistan to

sell electricity to Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey and Central Asia.

According to reports the level of electricity production is

predicted to reach 35.5 billion kW in Turkmenistan by 2030 in

accordance with the industry development strategy. Three

combined cycle gas turbine power plants, with a total capacity of

1,122 megawatt, will be constructed for the development

project. The construction of high-voltage power transmission

lines and substations will also continue, in order to reduce

electricity losses during transportation. In the future, the

country's energy system will be completely covered with high-

voltage overhead power transmission lines of 500 kV. There are

plans to build overhead lines of 500 kV in Balkanabat-Ashgabat-

Mary by 2020, which will allow mutual provision for eastern and

western parts of Turkmenistan.
