Description
Buckna WPS, in Broughshane Co. Antrim pumps treated water to Kanes Hill Storage Reservoir. Through a Capital Base Maintenance Programme, Northern Ireland Water identified the requirement for the replacement of the pumps and associated control panel to provide an optimised pumping regime.
Through Early Contractor Involvement we identified the required sizing and specification of the new pumping arrangement and the need for installation of surge vessels. Working collaboratively with Project Managers RPS we successfully delivered this project on time and budget, with minimal disruption to network supply. Key elements of work that were completed included;
• Design of all required MEICA apparatus
• Supply and Installation of 3 Nr Horizontal Multi Stage Pumps
• Surge Vessel Installation
• MCC Installation
• All required potable water pipework
• Alarm System and Building Services
