WHAT WE DID
B&D served as the electrical/special systems contractor on the plant laboratory and control center at a secured laboratory and control center in support of a gas monitoring initiative. The electrical scope of work included the installation of switchgear, UPS system, and the lighting control panel. The telecommunications scope entailed building out the communications and plant control room, and the laboratory. B&D installed 13.8kV power feeds to the control room and laboratory, and the backbone fiber, along with a redundant path to tie the new control building into the existing control room. The job also included extending and tying in the emergency shutdown system for the entire plant. B&D performed the controls migration to move all network and special systems to the control room. This needed to be accomplished without any plant process interruptions. The plant functions with the ability to recover carbon dioxide from the fracking process, along with harvesting natural gas. Thus, it is crucial that the plant remains in operation with very limited interruptions.
