Associated Case Studies Submarine Base Heating A major facilities management provider needed a heating source in new build six-storey blocks at a nuclear submarine base - the under-floor infrastructure was installed but not yet commissioned. An Andrews mobile boiler provided a 500kW duty on hot water only, while an absolute maximum temperature of 50°C was required to prevent damage to pipes buried under the floor screed. This solution allowed lower temperatures to be set on the outgoing supply from integral heat exchangers, while providing excellent working conditions for construction staff and providing ideal temperatures for adhesive drying and material fixing.
Oil Rig A facilities services firm needed temporary boiler plant to be used offshore on an oil rig, to ensure it could continue operating. Andrews delivered a packaged 540kW heating-only mobile boiler to the coast with bunded fuel tank and eight wire armour hoses, while the facilities provider organised a lifting certificate (BS7072) to allow it to be sent to the rig. Andrews also arranged a Specialist Hire Engineer to go onsite and instruct personnel in the safe installation and operation of the unit. |
