Precise Cooling Water Pipes for the AVR Power Plant Rotterdam
Content
OVERVIEW:
Client: Standardkessel Duisburg (for AVR Rotterdam)
Industry: Energy Sector
Project Goal: Design, delivery, and installation of cooling water pipelines
Solution: GRP pipes DN 800 with optimized static calculations and support concept
Results: Durable solution, on-time delivery, and installation
Challenge
Optimized Cooling Water Pipes for a Modern Power Plant
As part of the power plant construction at AVR Rotterdam, Standardkessel Duisburg required a reliable system for cooling water pipelines with DN 800. The project posed high demands on static stability, pressure resistance, and support planning. Additionally, precise coordination of international supply chains was necessary to meet the tight schedule.
Solution
Custom GRP Pipes with Comprehensive Planning
Fiberpipe developed a tailored GRP pipe system with detailed calculations for stress and water hammer loads. Based on the results, a support concept was created to ensure maximum stability. The GRP components were manufactured by a partner in Turkey, ensuring a cost-efficient and high-quality delivery.
Process
Precise Planning and On-Time Installation
At the start of the project, Fiberpipe and Standardkessel Duisburg established the parameters for wall thicknesses and supports. After producing the components, the installation of the cooling water pipelines was coordinated on-site. The assembly began in November and was completed by February, meeting the planned operational timeline.
Results
Reliable Cooling Water Solution for Sustainable Operations
Fiberpipe’s GRP pipe system met all requirements for durability and pressure resistance. Through precise planning and efficient installation, the project was successfully completed on time.
Durable Materials: The GRP pipes offer high resistance to mechanical and chemical stresses.
On-Time Delivery: The international project was completed within the set timeline.
Efficient Implementation: Detailed planning ensured a seamless installation process.
