SSE Thermal has partnered with Siemens Energy to introduce first-of-a-kind, high-efficiency gas-fired technology to the UK. When completed, the 835-megawatt-producing Keadby 2 is expected to become the cleanest and most-efficient gas-fired power station in Europe. Careys oversaw the management of the civils package, and Heras successfully tendered for the installation of fencing to create a secure perimeter. Included in this was fencing to secure specific compounds within the site.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Challenge<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The site required a security rated fencing system for the perimeter with pedestrian and vehicle access gates. The project also included fencing and gates for 13 specific internal areas where security was a priority to ensure the safety of site personnel. The restrictions of the site were a huge challenge &#8211; because of the strict protocols brought in to ensure social distancing and revised safe working practices in response to Covid-19. This required a bespoke approach to ensure the project was delivered safely, collaboratively and to shifting timescales. Added into the mix was the urgency to install the internal fencing. Another key challenge was that the original specification did not comply with current versions of standards, and a new solution was designed and proposed by the Heras team. The locations of cable trays posed issues for the contractor, and the design had to take into account that the trays were 600 mm off the floor and 500 mm wide.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Approach<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Heras has a \u2018safety first\u2019 mantra, and this was at the heart of every aspect from start to finish on what was a challenging site, with challenging restrictions and live power. This focus on safety also extended to the multiple other subcontractors and external trades that were working on site so that everyone could work in safe conditions. This required Heras to demonstrate flexibility and collaboration \u2014 especially working to revised schedules and liaising with other subcontractors to support the main contractor.<\/p>\n<p>Positive feedback from the contractor suggests that Heras was originally selected for this project because of the knowledge, expertise and skills of our installation team \u2014 these were especially significant because of the complexities that the cable trays posed. This trust in our team was important in enabling us to put forward our expert opinions when a new solution was sought for a specification that complied with the current versions of standards. The Heras team was open and honest and adopted a collaborative and consultative approach all the way through the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Keadby 2 is a new gas-fired power plant that is currently under construction next to Keadby 1 Power Station near Scunthorpe in North Lincolnshire.
