Aluminium Smelter

  • UAE
Following force majeure events, the aluminium production facility suffered a total ‘freeze’ of all operating liquid aluminium pots. At the time of the incident the project was ramping up the newly constructed facilities. CCi’s role included preparation of a ‘but for’ assessment of the timeline-related factors. This identified events that would have interrupted the normal progress of the ramp-up process had the force majeure event not occurred.

Originally suffering a catastrophic failure of the transformer, the project suffered several delay events, including 13 instances of damage.

Brazil

1.4GW Combined Cycle Power Plant

During the equipment commissioning operation for the project’s steam turbine unit, a system error triggered an unscheduled shutdown of the lubricating oil pumps causing damage to the turbine shaft.

Vanadium Mine

Following fire damage at the world’s largest vanadium mine, two divergent hypothetical timelines emerged relating to the redesigned reinstatement of the beneficiation process plant.

Spain

Tunnel Project

CCi was appointed by the tunnelling subcontractor as quantum expert and worked alongside the geotechnical expert to give an opinion on the losses incurred as a result of unforeseeable ground conditions.
