Project Summary

Gardner Zemke’s work included the supply and installation of four 5,000 HP 56 cfs  pumping units, two 2,500 HP 28 cfs pumping units, and  two 1,250 HP 14 cfs pumping   units along with all associated manifold piping, motor operated valves, unit cooling water systems, compressed air systems, and motor control equipment. Gardner Zemke also installed 72” and 84” diameter steel manifold piping in the plant and 72” and 84” cement lined steel line pipe outside of the plant for the suction and discharge piping. Other features include the supply and installation of two overhead bridge cranes, an electric traction elevator, and a 39’ diameter spherical steel ASME pressure vessel for the discharge pipeline.

 This project was a negotiated procurement; and our team also included Subcontractors Nielsons / Skanska for pipeline and steel manifold construction, Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI) for the 39’ diameter air chamber construction, and The Flowserve Pump Division for the pumping units and motors.
