An example of a large pipework installation project that we successfully completed on-time and within budget was in the water utilities sector. Our customer specialises in water treatment solutions. They engaged us to support the mechanical installation of a state-of-the-art water filtration system.
They had completed the engineering design works for the project and contracted for all equipment, tanks and pipework to be prefabricated abroad. Our involvement was to carry out the water filtration system mechanical installation and the associated pipework installation. This included all equipment, pipework, tanks, valves, pumps, platforms, steelwork, etc. We manufactured all pipework support brackets. There was over 9500KG of support steel work, all manufactured and galvanised in the UK.
Most projects present challenges that we have to address and, in this case, where the supplied prefabricated pipework did not correctly match the drawings issued by our customer, we rectified the problem. This involved an additional 28,000 inches of welding. Due to the sizes and weights of the equipment and building restrictions, which limited what lifting equipment could be used, this project involved several complex lifts. Our overall contribution included building, fitting, testing and commissioning the water filtration system and associated pipework.
This is now the largest industrial filter membrane Plant in Europe and treats river water to the high standards required for public consumption. It has delivered significant improvements in the water supply, at their primary reservoir site, while protecting the local environment. We design, fabricate, install and maintain pipework for a broad range of industrial and commercial applications. Our team is equipped to handle pipework installation projects of all sizes, from small bore heating systems to larger pipework installations.
We design a custom pipework solution that meets your exact needs. This starts with an assessment of your requirements, including the type of system needed, the size and layout of the space, and any regulations or guidelines that you must comply with. We understand the importance of using the correct materials for each application, and our team is knowledgeable about the properties and suitability of each material, allowing us to recommend the best option for your project.
