Penspen conducted Integrity Services for the aviation system, with the key activities including:

• Intelligent pigging and rehabilitation work to the pipelines for the storage facilities
• Connections, pigging, and metering facilities at two supply pump stations
• Cross-base pipework and pigging facilities at the jet line connected to the airport
• Metering, pigging, and reception facilities at the airport

Result

Project management, engineering design, construction supervision and operational services were conducted for the pipeline, resulting in successful rehabilitation of the operational ability of the pipeline system. The integrity of the system was secured to avoid any risks of defects and corrosion, ensuring continued aircraft fuelling operations.
