In April, 2009 all power units were delivered to the customers; and in the shortest terms - since July till September - specialists from Aviadvigatel have provided installation, precommissioning and starting-up of the equipment.

According to Lukoil-Zapadnaya Sibir LLC choice each "Ural-6000" is provided with its own fire-fighting unit.
