There existed an urgent need for
the replacement of one of the generator units at the Mobile Power Plant of
Barmek in Kirikkale city.
As per
guarantee conditions, the responcibility was the manufacturer's
account, namely; Wartsila OY - Finland
Following the discussions
with the company, and presentation of preliminary report and related ringing
plans for the operation, with the approwal of Barmek, the handling of all
operation by our company was agreed and all preparations has started before the
equipment arrived the custom.


Even
the complete insurance was left to the CKV, with total value 2
million USD, the site equipment, releted section of the plant
and people that will take in the operation were insured againist
all risks with the available maximum values.
As the site
was already turfed, Barmek demanded the area to be returned as
it was .
One day
before the arrival of the good, the area where our crane will
stand was stabilized (Excavation of soil, spreading of gravel
and compaction by roller) for a proper use.
Total time
set for the complete operation was 7 Hours.
On
the other hand, the roof panels at the section where the
operation will take place were removed for a free passage of the
generator.
The most
critical point of the operation was - due to the reason that
crane operator could not see the inside - the damages that could
have given to the studs with lateral motions, on which the new
generator will sit.
However, carefull handling of the operation,
communication among site manager, crane operator and staff inside the building
with radio set, the experiance of CKV and its staff again led to a safe and
smooth completion of the operation.



The operation
started at 09:00 a.m. and completed successfully at 03:45 p.m.
Both Wartsila and Barmek expressed their appreciations.
Finally, the site
area was re-arranged and left after being turned
