Shutdowns and special projects

Cape DBI employs a dedicated ‘Special Projects’ Management Team with an unrivalled reputation for delivering impressive results in even the largest scale operations. Special Projects work in close partnership with our clients to develop scope of works documents that identify and address all the key issues, taking into consideration any other operations that can be included at the same time.

Effective planning and management is essential to keep system downtime to a minimum and to reduce the risk of ‘nasty surprises’. As a result, projects run smoothly and efficiently and return your site to full operation on time and with minimal of disruption to your profit stream.

Well-proven and long-established, the Team works as a coherent unit, utilising Cape DBI’s huge specialised plant and equipment resources and large, highly workforce of experienced and qualified personnel.

Special projects:

• Scheduled preventative maintenance cleaning: Generally on a smaller scale than full system shutdowns. This involves only sections of plant or individual items of equipment and generally does not require multi-disciplined activities.
• Decommissioning and cleaning: At the end of a plant’s productive life, efficient decommissioning is essential to ensure minimal environmental impact, allowing replacement.
• Gas holder decommissioning: A highly specialised activity that involves elements of civil engineering, land reclamation and hazardous waste handling and disposal.
• Hydraulic testing: Cape DBI offers a complete package of hydraulic testing and proving services for a wide range of applications.
