Cairn Project utilizes Perma-Pipe’s TRACE-THERM™ insulation system
Perma-Pipe India Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Texas based group, is to supply thermally insulated pipe and field joints for a chilled water network on the 10 GW solar cell and module factory in Jamnagar from its facility in Gandhidham, Gujarat.
The project will utilize Perma-Pipe’s XTRU-THERM® insulation system, a spray-applied polyurethane foam jacketed with a high-density polyethylene casing for the Reliance New Solar Energy Limited’s factory.
Perma-Pipe has secured an approximately US$6.5 million contracts from Reliance New Solar Energy.
Prior to application of the insulation system, an anti-corrosion liquid epoxy coating system will be applied to the pipes as well as installing Perma-Pipe’s own PermAlert® leak detection system.
In addition, Megha Engineering & Infrastructures Ltd awarded Perma-Pipe India for the provision of thermally insulated pipe and field joints for a heat-traced application on the ABNP – Cairn Project, Rajasthan.
The project will utilize Perma-Pipe’s TRACE-THERM™ insulation system which is designed to ensure optimum heat management during the life of the pipeline.
The system will have welded tracer tubes for heat tracing and spray-applied polyurethane foam jacketed with a high-density polyethylene casing. Prior to application of the insulation system, an anti-corrosion fusion bonded epoxy coating will be applied internally and externally using Perma-Pipe’s custom coating facility.
Saleh Sagr, Sr. Vice President for Perma-Pipe’s MENA region, states, “We are pleased to see customers repeating business with us and look forward to serving Reliance New Solar Energy and Megha Engineering on these projects. It is encouraging to see continued opportunities in the Indian market.”
David Mansfield, President and CEO, commented, “We are delighted with both of these awards, and that customers return to place their trust in Perma-Pipe to deliver their projects. It is also satisfying to see that the strategic decision to install a custom coating plant in India was the right one.”
