Stefanutti Stocks Civils (Pty) Ltd undertook the civils works for the 4th Train Landlord Project, which forms part of the overall Secunda growth programme. This was undertaken for client SASOL in conjunction with project managers Foster Wheeler.
This project took place on a live plant, which underwent a scheduled shut down part-way through the contract. “As shut down work takes precedence, we had to ensure our forward planning was faultless,” says Deon. “This included accurate five to seven day forecasts and constant communication between existing contractors to enable us to continue working whilst not impeding the priority shut down work”.
The scope of works included electrical and civil works including:
• the demolition of existing surface beds;
• excavations to bases and the construction of four new tanks;
• rerouting live drainage channels;
• applying chemical resistant linings to the tanks; and
• numerous pump and tank foundations and plinths.
The Stefanutti Stocks Civils safety department requested that the team on this project be one of two teams to represent the company for a NOSA audit and rating. Safety manager, Jaco Strydom and safety officer, Ernst de Vries, and our site team were instrumental in the successful achievement of our NOSA five star rating.
