Installation of a new wash water supply and injection facility to support the creation and operation of new cavern well W-106. Engineering work was undertaken to design and specify new infrastructure which included a wash water injection pump, pumphouse, above ground wash water supply pipeline, electrical substation and primary transformer, and well house. The project was undertaken in two phases; Phase 1 FEED study, complete with a Class 3 capital estimate and Phase 2 detailed engineering including procurement and cost tracking.
Phase 1: FEED study & Class 3 Estimate, January 2006
Phase 2: Detailed Engineering & Procurement, April 2006
Actual Design Delivery
Phase 1: as scheduled, March 2006
Phase 2: as scheduled, November 2006
Phase 1: $35,000
Phase 2: $3,800,000
Phase 1: $35,000
Phase 2: $4,200,000 (client added scope changes)
