OPW provide long-lasting containment system for new build Belgium filling station

Project overview

OPW continue to supply KPS primary and secondary contained pipework and Fibrelite tank chambers to major oil company Total in the Benelux region. This motorway site was built on both the west and east bound carriageways.

Problem

A major international oil company with large Benelux presence approached OPW looking for a reliable long-lasting containment system for a new build filling station, including Fibrelite chambers and KPS piping. Fast installation with minimal maintenance was a priority in this project.

Solution

In the installation, the oil company used the Fibrelite S14-390-D400 chamber system and KPS piping. The chamber extensions were laminated at the factory before dispatch, reducing the onsite installation time which was a priority. Even with the extensions they are fully vacuum testable and watertight.

KPS piping provides a safe, easy-install solution requiring the minimum possible number of welds. KPS double wall piping requires fewer welds than any other system available, as the compact KPS fittings weld both walls of a double wall pipe simultaneously, again reducing installation time.
