Pfizer
Ltd
Echo Engineering
has carried out projects on the Sandwich site for over 15 years. These
projects have included design, fabrication and installation.
What follows is
only a sample of projects undertaken:
-
New Utilities
Boiler feed project (240 Tonnes) structural steel construction
involving access platforms and stairways complete with highly polished
stainless steel handrails.
-
Pipe bridges 2.5
metres square in 12 metre spans.
-
Refurbishment of
existing production buildings including the provision of new 7 tonne
vessels.
-
Design,
fabrication and installation of storage tanks in both carbon and
stainless steel.
-
Various
stainless and carbon steel production units including heat exchangers
and reactors.
-
Site built 5.5
metres 184,000 litres stainless steel storage tank.
Dungeness
Power Station
Echo has worked
within the Nuclear Industry for the last 16 years.
As well as vessel
construction Echo has carried out some complex projects which have
involved in-depth planning and risk assessment in radioactive controlled
areas.
A sampling of
projects undertaken:
-
Refurbishment of
the Active effluent water treatment plant installing new pumps, valves
and stainless steel pipework to a high standard. This resulted in
lowering the radiation levels.
-
Complete
refurbishment of the fuel cooling system including the design and
fabrication of new stainless steel heat exchangers.
-
Echo have had a
permanent site team at Dungeness A power station for the past 12 years
integrated with the British Nuclear Group Maintenance staff. They play
an active role in the day to day activities of the Maintenance.
Dean &
Dyball
Project:
Thamesmead Innovation Centre - Structural Steel
This is the single
largest project ever undertaken by Echo within an extremely limited
timescale.
The project
involved the design of all interconnection details and the production of
General Arrangement Drawings for approval by the client.
This was followed
by fabrication drawings and specifications and eventually the
fabrication and coating of 380 tonnes of structural steel.
The limited
timescale meant that all Echos work had to be integrated with all the
other trades and still managed to complete their work on time!
