Good Afternoon,

Yes, well it has been a while since our last update and it probably looks as though all the work is done....not quite!

I would just like to confirm there has and will continue to be a lot of technical work going on to ensure the work is totally complete before we will be fully operational. This work will continue until the Autumn when all being well the commissioning will be concluded.

Again, thank you for your patience and understanding

Good Morning,

Just to keep you all in the loop as to where we are:-

Well it does look as though nothing is happening on site now, however there are some works going on within the grounds, snagging etc as well as behind the scenes to bring the  project to a close.

The team are currently doing some remedial works which will take approximately 6wks then there will be some commissioning to complete so work is anticipated to be complete in the Spring. 

Once again thanks for your patience.

Hello,

Hope you are all enjoying this great weather.

Well, we are near the completion stage of the build phase and the commissioning is ongoing. The site cabins have now been removed and we are getting ready for the new roads around the building to be installed.

The finish line is in sight.

Thanks again for your understanding during the work.

Good Morning,

Hope you all had a great Bank Holiday and are enjoying this lovely weather.

Well, things are starting to progress really well, Gary has sent me some photos for you check out, have a look.

You may have noticed there seems to be less activity within the compound lately this is because now the work is starting to take place within the building, all the testing and techincal tasks are starting which means the outdoor work is just the smartening up of the area. The cabins will be moving soon and we will be relocating them to another site in Northumberland.

Here are the photos:-

Good Morning All,

There has been a lot of activity with the buildings these last few weeks, here is a brief update on what's been going on:-

Treatment building: -

The subcontractors have continued installing the cabling within the building and MCC room. They have installed the point/vent pipework to the outside of the building to the relevant kiosk positions. The power on the caustic kiosk has gone ahead as well as the piping up of the break tank and booster pump setup.The pipework between the vessels have also been installed.

All this means is we can start to dry commission and fill vessel 1 for flush testing  ..............so watch this space!

Pump station – 

The first test passed!

Again lots of prep cables installed to the pumps, turned pumps to check spinning orientation is working correct, went well which again means we are ready for water test.

Contact tank – the east contact and west balance tank passed drop test. Filled opposing sides.

Waste Water Settlement Tank – More installation of valves on the inlet pipes including all the cabling.

Thanks again for your understanding during our works

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Just a short brief update from last weeks work:-

Treatment building: - The cabling and pipe work continues within the building, externally the stairs and gantry are almost complete. 

We have also added some time lapse photos of the project so you can see how things have developed over the last few months.

Good Morning Everyone,

This weeks update for you:-

Good Morning,

Hope you all enjoyed the lovely Spring like weather at the weekend...............but kept safe!

This weeks update from the team:-

Treatment building  -       Our subcontractor continued installing the cabling within the building, we installed the last door on the west side of the building, cabling and analyser boards were fixed and as you can see by the photos the cladding was erected to make the building watertight.

Contact Tank -      All stoned up, shuttered and installed mesh then poured the concrete base for the stairs.

Water Settlement Tank -     The shutters and concreted plinth for decant arm was installed  in the east tank as well as more pipework.  

Thank you all again for your patience.

Good Morning All,

Didn't get an up date in last week so it's a little late........apologies.

Well the weather was rather cruel wasn't it, we were challenged to say the least  with temperatures of -13c, even the generator kept cutting out so there was not welfare for the team. Gary and the team had no power and a frozen water supply and therefore the site was shut every morning from 9.30.

That said some work did happen:-

Deliveries did eventually get through on certain days, internal painting, some cabling and pipework was done albeit limited due to the conditions.

Sorry no photos this week but there will be in the future.

Wow, what a week!

Stay safe and warm everyone.
