WHAT’S NEW? Meticulous Planning Powers


Drainage Upgrade Drainage engineers have used no- dig, pipe lining technology to carry out a comprehensive upgrade of surface water and foul drains at an East Midlands power station without impacting on site operations.


The Lanes Group plc teams installed 11 pipe liners and 40 local structural point repairs across the drainage system at Corby Power Station in Northamptonshire.


The work was part of a planned preventative maintainance programme required by the power station's owner, ESB, the state-owned electricity supply company in Ireland.


Rob Heward, Mechanical Maintenance Coordinator at Corby Power Station, praised the Lanes team for their efficient approach to the project, and the quality of their work.


Another Marqueed


Success for Andrews For the third successive year a premier guesthouse in the South West of England turned to Andrews Chiller Hire to provide a bespoke cooling system for their marquees.


A major provider of professional services had booked the entire facility at the hotel for a month- long period and requested that a complex cooling arrangement be implemented before guests arrived.


To achieve this, Andrews Chillers supplied a 100kW chiller unit for the site's fixed marquee and a 200kW chiller for a much larger structure. Inside each of these marquees Andrews installed a number of its 15kW fan coils; these would extract warm air, convert the heat to water and recycle back via chilled water to the fan coils to supply cooler air into the marquees for maintaining an ideal room temperature.


delivering a comprehensive report that allowed the power station to programme in remedial work.


He said: "They were able to complete the work with no disruption to our processes, which was very helpful. As an energy generator, health and safety is a priority for us, and the Lanes safety systems were exemplary."


Corby Power Station supplies electricity to the National Grid. Lanes had carried out a full CCTV drainage survey of the two-acre site in May,

Teams from the Lanes depot in Derby and the Lanes Lining and Renovation Division, in Manchester, worked together to plan and implement the drainage repair programme.


The drainage system was comprised mostly of clay pipes ranging from 150mm to 600mm in diameter. Damage included pipe cracking, partially collapsed pipes, and joint displacements.


The chillers were sited adjacent to the central marquee with a minimum amount of connecting hoses visible, creating a ‘neat installation’ as requested by the training company. Another 100kW chiller was also deployed outside the structure, which housed lighting apparatus and toilet facilities, again connected up to a series of 15kW fan coils.


In creating this totally-integrated, stand-alone cooling solution, Andrews Chiller Hire also needed to supply generators, positioning them on the opposite side of the main access road to reduce the impact of any noise.


One of the company’s regional engineers attended the grounds of the hotel initially to ensure the install went smoothly and met the needs of both the hotel and the training company. Throughout the chiller hire contract, regular site visits continued to ensure all was well.

Chris Batey, Regional Manager for Lanes Derby, said: "We created a spreadsheet of all the remedial work, along with locations, so we could schedule it in the most efficient way.


"We kept a jet vac tanker on site all week, while also deploying a CCTV drainage survey crew, working alongside two lining teams from Manchester. With careful planning we could share resources optimally between the teams, and complete the programme within 10 days."
