M-Berth Adeliade
It was the first project in SA to upgrade fire foam system in accordance with new PFAS policies were introduced by the South Australian EPA. The Client decided to change/clean the system from using AFFF to a fluorine-free foam concentrate in order to comply with the new policy.
Following the fire foam review, We supplied 30,000L Solberg Foam. Our brief was to decontaminate M berth foam delivery system including ~500m underground foam piping network at Adelaide.
The foam/water system was flushed with proper chemical solvents and applying innovated method of cleaning for the underground piping network. In addition, four foam proportioners ( balanced type) were adjusted for new foam physical properties.
The project was delivered in 2018 on time and on budget without any side effect on M-Berth operation and ship schedules.
