Phoenix Petroleum Ltd. was contracted by Shell Canada to design and construct a new piping system for loading and offloading of Jet A-1 and Avgas at the Vancouver International Airport. This project involved the complete removal of all old steel piping and installation of new welded stainless steel piping as well as upgrading of the entire catwalk system to meet the latest construction standards. The greatest challenge in this project was to keep this very busy aviation facility in operation throughout the entire construction process. The new piping and catwalk was prefabricated to minimize the welding required on site. A very detailed 5 phase construction plan was developed and executed by Phoenix Petroleum Ltd. and the project was delivered on schedule and on budget without closing the operation of the facility.
