Pin brazing: safe, fast, durable and all weather
A full bonding operation for brazing two cable lugs takes less than a minute with the Bright-Bond unit, saving nearly twenty minutes per bond when compared to conventional methods of track bonding
The project, at the GG-15 gathering centre about 50km from Kuwait City, involved a site survey of the centre comprising storage tank facilities, oils wells, flowlines, manifolds and desalinating/dehydration plant to ascertain existing conditions.
From the results BAC wes able to determine locations for the new cathodic protection equipment and confirm the design requirements.
Subsequently, BAC prepared a detailed design, supplied and shipped the required materials.
Installation supervision, testing and commissioning of the cathodic protection system is to follow.
The design, based on a 25/30 year life, is for an ICCP system with a vertically drilled borehole groundbed and graphite anodes.
This, and other works in Kuwait are carried out in conjunction with BAC's local agent Mazidi Procurement and Project Management of Safat, Kuwait.
