Fort Hills Utilities Project - EPFC
Fort Hills Energy L.P. selected Fluor for its Engineering Design Specification project, which has transitioned to the engineering, procurement, fabrication, and construction (EPFC) phase. To support Fluor's integrated solutions approach, the partnership recently awarded Supreme Modular Fabrication Inc. (SMFI) a contract for the assembly of modules for the Fort Hills Utilities project.
As structural steel and pipe spooling arrive onsite, SMFI will begin assembly of the modules of varying types for the project, including piperacks, structural assemblies, equipment modules, and complex electrical and instrumentation assemblies. Instead of dispersing each module's components across multiple shipments, each skid included all the steel and bolts necessary to assemble one complete module (218 steel pieces). The project team and SMFI developed this innovative solution to ultimately improve schedule and reduce labor hours. The plant site was built to produce 180,000 bpd per calendar day of bitumen – a heavy and extremely viscous oil.
As of October 2016, all 358 modules have been fabricated and shipped to the site, where they will be set by Fluor's craft workforce. The site has achieved more than 2.8 million hours without a lost-time incident.
