PROJECTS AND CONTRACTS

The upgrade project involved the

implementation and connection

of a pipeline from the Engen depot

to the Companhia Do Pipeline Mozambique

– Zimbabwe Limitada (CPMZ) Pump Station

inside the port. Leading fluid conveyance

products and solutions expert Incledon

supplied a wide range of world-class products

to the project, which is now operational after

a two year construction period.

The company was subcontracted to

provide valves and above-ground mechan-

ical infrastructure to the project by petro-

chemical installation specialist company

Atmei Construction. Incledon’s scope of work

included the supply of pipes, valves, gaskets,

flanges, bends, T-pieces and reducers.

Incledon valves product manager Craig

Thomson notes that the company supplied

the project with a range of Teji WCB Cast

Steel Valves, which are fully compliant with

American Petroleum Institute (API) stand-

ards. The valves – comprising gate valves,

ball and check valves, as well as basket

strainers – range in diameter from 10 mm to

350 mm. The gate valves are available in pres-

sure class 150 and class 300.

"Incledon is the sole South African

importer and distributor of the Asia-based

Teji range of industrial and petrochemical

valves, which are highly durable, reliable, and

easy to maintain and operate. These valves

will be used to control, isolate and regulate

the flow of hydrocarbons at the petrochem-

ical depot,” he explains.

Incledon was also contracted to supply

valves for the fire-suppression reticulation

system, which consists of butterfly valves

and wafer check valves, with water and foam

used as the medium. Atmei Construction

logistics project and drafting manager Riaan

Wiessener states that the company has been

utilising Teji valves for the past eight years,

owing to competitive prices and good quality.

“The valves, pipes, weld-on fittings and

screw fittings meet international standards

and are being installednot only on fuel depots,

but on fuel and lubrication depotsthat Atmei

constructs for mines throughout South

Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia,

Mozambique, Lesotho and Swaziland.

This is indicative of Incledon’s excel-

lent quality of materials and Atmei’s

highly standardised expertise in

the international petrochemical

industry,” he states.

Wiessener believes that the

success of this high-profile Beira

project will provide a major

competitive edge to both Atmei

Construction and Incledon moving

forward. “A lot of international atten-

tion was placed on this project, and the

proven performance of the working rela-

tionship between the two companies will be

recognised on a global scale, which is good

for future business,” he concludes.
