STRATEGIES

In order to expedite construction especially in mega projects, it is extremely important to push the enabling and civil works at jet pace, which is achieved by adopting pre-cast method of carrying out civil works

About 150,000 MT Strl. Steel from M/s Hangxiao-China was pre-fabricated out of Nigeria and transported in knocked-down condition & free issued to Contractor. A separate material requisition was prepared exclusively for structural steel pre- fabrication which included the supply of structural steel as well.

Right from outset, it was thought prudent to plan single piece transportation to site of the mammoth equipment's and take advantage of the proximity of site to the huge ocean front. The erection of all the major heavy lifts was planned to be carried out at site work and in one piece using the largest capacity cranes PTC-200 available in the world.

Mammoth equipment like Flue Gas Steam Generators (FGSG), Heat recovery steam generators (HRSG), Boilers, Furnace, Airfin Coolers etc. were modularised and transported to Nigeria from India as modules complete with structures, piping, electrical and instrumentation etc.
