Aker Kvaerner Wins Northumbrian Water Contract

Aker Kvaerner has been awarded a major contract by Northumbrian Water to provide the process requirements for the latest improvement scheme at the Bran Sands Effluent Treatment Centre. The award-winning Centre, at Teesport, treats domestic sewage together with the waste from several industrial processes from the surrounding area. The improvement scheme will partition part of the process to provide bespoke treatment solutions for two industrial waste streams.

Aker Kvaerner will provide the procurement, construction, functional commissioning, testing and training needs for the scheme. The contract has commenced, with a seven-month construction period.

This latest contract is in addition to the five-year capital maintenance works that Aker Kvaerner has been carrying out since July 2005. As part of Northumbrian Water's current asset management programme at Bran Sands, the work focuses on the continued smooth operation and productivity of the facilities. Aker Kvaerner also provides engineering expertise for all mechanical, electrical, process, control, instrumentation and telemetry requirements, and all civil engineering works.

Northumbrian Water also recently awarded Aker Kvaerner its "Contractor Health and Safety Award" for 2006. Fourteen other contractors entered this award category and the achievement recognises Aker Kvaerner's significant contribution to the promotion of health and safety in the business.
