Certified Coating Specialists Inc. Negotiates Fixed Price Contract with Peter Kiewit and Sons Co. for the Kwalsa Upper Stave Run of River Hydro Project
Following onsite inspections and a specification review, CCS has been awarded the coating repair works for hundreds of penstock joints along thousands of meters of large diameter piping. Working with PKS and ICI Devoe Coatings, an efficient, effective system of coating the joints for the penstock piping was developed, allowing the entire penstock sections to be welded and buried prior to coating work being performed. This allowed substantial savings based on economy of scale for the recoating work, as well as making the completion of the coating work less dependent on weather conditions.
CCS has extensive experience working on hydro generation facilities having recently completed the penstock joint repair program for Western Versatile Construction Corporation at the Aberfeldie Redevelopment. As well, CCS has completed projects for BC Hydro at numerous sites around the province including Peace Canyon and the GM Shrum Generating Station.
Certified Coating Specialists experience, equipment, job specific management programs and reputation has made them the “GO TO” industrial painting contractor most commonly called on in the province.
