18-foot retaining wall to reroute an existing creek. This project required a high level of coordination among all parties, with peak crew sizes of up to 87 personnel on site.
“ By implementing a 345 kV GIS system rather than a traditional air-insulated configuration, we were able to significantly reduce the overall footprint of the substation, allowing for more efficient use of space and greater flexibility on site. Housing the equipment indoors also provides enhanced protection from weather and environmental conditions, thereby improving system reliability and reducing long-term maintenance requirements,” Dan explains.
Valued at $ 7.5 million, the second standout project is the Ventura XPress Compressor Station, a horsepower modernization initiative spanning several compressor stations in and around Indiana. Lindblad’ s scope included the installation of three turbines within a new compressor building, along with construction of a new office and communications building, an auxiliary building and associated ancillary equipment. This scope covers everything from excavation and concrete foundations through to structural erection, office buildout and site restoration.
