Details
Works were carried out at building G20 where the 40 year old Defence fuel installation ground fuel point required remediation. The scope of works included:
- Remediation of the existing ground fuel point, including conversion of storage and feed tanks from unleaded petrol to diesel.
- Removal and replacement of ageing bowsers.
- Replacement of the existing two Ebsray V20 positive displacement pumps with centrifugal self-priming pumps.
- Modifications to piping and the installation of bottom loading arms for tanker refuelling.
Highlights
- Effective communication with the client.
- Eliminated need to trench through contaminated soil by combining power route cabling through existing infrastructure, which minimised risk and reduced the impact on DFI operations.
