ABL Group operations in London have been providing marine advisory and marine warranty survey (MWS) services on the marine transportation and installation (T&I) operations on the Hinkley Point C nuclear project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

About Hinkley Point C nuclear project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hinkley Point C project<\/a> involves the construction of two new nuclear reactors – the first nuclear power station to be built in the UK in over 20 years, and to provide low-carbon electricity for around 6 million homes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To act as marine advisor and MWS on T&I operations relating to Hinkley Point C’s substantial subsea structures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reaching a project milestone <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ABL marine warranty surveyors supported Hinkley Point C in reaching an important milestone in the project’s marine works, overseeing the successful installation in the Bristol Channel of the 1st outfall head structure, which weighs close to 5000 T. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The outfall head structures cap the three tunnels used for intake and outfall of water from the Bristol Channel to the power station. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These structures are the most complex and dense reinforcement structures across the Hinkley Point C Project, at 44 m in length – the size roughly of 4x double-decker buses!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work to install the system is regarded as one of the world’s most complex marine engineering projects due to the Bristol Channel’s high tidal range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
