Farrans Construction Ltd is a leading UK building and civil engineering contractor, headquartered in Belfast, Northern Ireland. In 2010 it had a turnover of more than £165 million and employed more than 1,000 people.
The company has a base at Belfast International airport, where it keeps five bunded tanks – one for aviation fuel, two for diesel and two for de-icer.
The bunds had been in place for decades and had developed cracks and other structural problems, particularly where the walls met the floor. Farrans needed an economical and long-lasting solution to make them oil-tight.
After a free site survey, we recommended repairing each bund with a GRP lining system. This creates a new bund within the old one, meaning that new cracks in the concrete don't compromise the bund's integrity.
Farrans asked us to repair all five bunds in a single project, allowing us to offer a 32% reduction on the price of repairing them separately – and to complete the repairs within 12 working days.
The company's bunds are now fully oil-tight and should remain maintenance and leak-free for 20+ years.
We offer a high quality bund lining service to produce a simple, long term cost effective solution to your spill containment, protection and corrosion problems.
Our technical surveyors have years of experience within the industry and are experts in fibreglass lining.
A free site survey will provide you with recommendations for the future use of your tank bund spill containment area.
