How Did SMSCL Help?
Client: BpTT and Massy Wood Group
The objective of the 8-inch STAB Product to Metering Line Replacement project was to replace an 8-inch piping system which was deemed unfit for service. It therefore required, a replacement from the STAB Product to TSP Metering. BpTT and Massy Wood Group contracted SMSCL’s competent team which delivered efficient job execution of this project. Our efficient project management started with conducting site visits and attending risk management sessions which allowed our team to evaluate the Scope of Work (SOW).
By evaluating the SOW against preliminary project forecasts, our internationally certified team of project executioners established a Resource Loaded Schedule. This schedule detailed the mobilisation of labour, required equipment and work pack documents. From these documents, the SMSCL team efficiently outlined work processes, perform a risk assessment of job activities, certification of equipment and task procedures. The procedures for the 8-inch STAB Product to Metering Line Replacement project involved:
• Scaffolding • De-torquing & torquing of bolts • Removal of the existing 8-inch piping & corroded structures • Fabrication of the new 8-inch piping and structure members • Re-installation of the new 8-inch piping on a new pipe route • Denso tape removal & re-installation
To execute these tasks, the team of certified Bolt Torque Technicians and Riggers evaluated the work activities, risk assessments and established a Lifting & Rigging Management System as well as a Transportation & Replacement strategy. These procedures facilitated easy mobilisation of heavy equipment to and around job sites. To ensure optimum project management and execution, a Contract Quality Plan was effectively implemented. This plan involved completing project tasks in sequence, routine quality work inspections and proper record management. These records provided daily documentation of the project’s progress for the client. As a SToW certified, one-stop shop EPC provider, proper documentation of work activities and work progress was also a critical competent of maintaining an effective HSSE work environment. SMSCL’s ongoing commitment to HSSE ensured that the 8-inch STAB Product to Metering Line Replacement project was completed according to internationally certified standards.
From attending initial HSE roll-outs for project execution to providing HSE Officers on site to conducting Safety Management Systems (SMS) & System Application Process (SAP) audits, our team of certified experts ensured that safety standards during this project met the expectations of BpTT, Massy Wood Group and the industry. Suitable provisions were made for night activity onshore, protective gear while on site and routine inspections on the integrity of the equipment and infrastructure. Given the SOW for this project, the plans and processes developed and executed by our team ensured for a successful completion of this project within budget and specified timeframe. Utilising a highly skilled team to manage the intricacies of this project resulted in successful removal and re-installation of the STAB product to TSP Metering as per client expectations.
