A Complex Engineering Puzzle
The core challenge was the project's critical nature. The HVAC for the Central Control Room required 100% uptime with N+1 redundancy to prevent any risk of a plant shutdown. The fire safety system had to address a complex mix of high-risk industrial hazards, including high-voltage transformers, turbine lubricating oils, and sensitive electronic switchgear, each demanding a unique and compliant suppression solution according to NFPA standards.
Innovative & Efficient
We engineered a fully redundant Precision Air Conditioning (PAC) system for the main control room, ensuring stable temperature and humidity 24/7. For fire protection, a comprehensive, integrated solution was deployed: a clean agent (FM-200) gas suppression system for the data centers and switchgear rooms, a high-velocity water spray system for transformer bays, and an upgraded plant-wide fire hydrant and sprinkler network, all governed by an intelligent, addressable fire alarm system.
Key Project Outcomes
Ensured 100% operational continuity for the plant's control systems with a zero-downtime HVAC solution.
Achieved full compliance with international NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards for power plants.
Significantly enhanced the safety and asset protection of one of Pakistan's most critical energy infrastructures.
Delivered a complex, multi-system project on schedule with an impeccable safety record.
“The safety and reliability of our operations are paramount. Their team's technical proficiency in designing MEP systems for such a complex industrial environment was outstanding. They delivered a robust, world-class HVAC and fire protection solution that meets the highest international safety standards.”
