Verbrec Infrastructure Services has been engaged to deliver operation and maintenance services for the 6km SSBGP from the Eastern Gas Pipeline (EGP) tie in, through to the new cogeneration plant, powering the Bomaderry food production plant, and meeting the site’s steam generation requirements.
Verbrec was initially engaged by Shoalhaven Starches, in an Owners Engineer capacity. This transitioned from Owner Engineer support through to Operational Readiness services, resulting in the award of the Operation and Maintenance contract.
METHODOLOGY
The project includes the following services:
Manildra Pipeline Owners Engineering Support
- Covered documentation reviews for Process, pipelines, Mechanical and E&I.
Pipeline Licence Support
- The pipeline licence was granted in September and is the first in NSW for approximately 10 years, for the Shoalhaven Starches Bomaderry Gas Pipeline.
Operational Readiness
- Produced the required documentation for the implementation of the Pipeline Management System.
Operations and Maintenance Contract
- Our unique capabilities and position in the market, allowed us to transition from Owner Engineer Support, through to Operational Readiness services, and subsequently resulted in the award of the Operation and Maintenance contract.
SOLUTION
The O&M contract will provide Shoalhaven Starches (Manildra Group) operational assurance and ensure pipeline integrity through continual performance monitoring and Right of Way-surveillance.
