3R21 Palo Verde Generating Station N1 Polar Crane Replacement Project

Palo Verde Generating Station entered into an agreement with Konecrane to modernize and improve the safety of the plant’s (3) existing 225/35-ton polar cranes. Our team provided qualified supervision, non-working oversight, and manpower to support Konecrane on this project.

The Challenge

Several critical challenges were present on this project. The scope of work that had to be completed in only 14-days was one such challenge. Our team managed everything from work orders, holding permits, FME monitoring, machine work to motor alignments. We supported a total of 3 work groups for the duration of the job. Moreover, the work required 24-hr coverage from kickoff to completion.

The Solution

Manning the job with a total of 4-crews and staggering the shifts proved to be the best method to meet the full coverage requirement of the Polar Crane Replacement Project.

The Result

3R21 PVGS Polar Crane Replacement Project was completed on time, within budget, and with zero recordable injuries.
