Cabinet Gas Regulator Points in the Azerbaijan SSR: An Article by the Authors (1961) and a Chapter of an Unpublished Manuscript (1963)

This deposit presents the history of cabinet gas regulator points (GRP) in the Azerbaijan SSR as told by their initiators, A. M. Abdullaev and A. A. Narimanov, who in 1959 proposed replacing GRP in standalone masonry buildings with compact metal cabinets. It includes two texts: an excerpt from the authors’ 1961 article in Gazovaya Promyshlennost and a chapter of their unpublished 1963 manuscript “Rational Foundations of Urban Gas Supply”. The texts cover the reported savings in metal and cost, the denser network of points with smaller action radii, the simplified equipment set without filters and shut-off valves, and the local production of gas equipment. The documents are given in Russian transcription with English and Azerbaijani translations and an introductory article. The figures are the authors’ own estimates. The deposit continues two earlier ones: Cabinet Gas Regulator Points in the Azerbaijan SSR: Development and Introduction (1959) Typescript of an Article on the Experiment with the GRP Regulation System in the City of Baku in the 1960s.
