Crossrail
The Crossrail project is delivering the Elizabeth line to provide a 10% increase in rail capacity in central London and help maintain London’s place as a global city.
We are extremely proud to be part of this ambitious and infinitive project, helping to provide the control and monitoring of traction power assets across the central operating section and station management systems, all from the newly constructed Route Control Centre in Romford. Combining together the differing aspects of a power SCADA system with a multitude of station management systems such as CCTV, PA, CIS, Telephony and linewide MEP, all into a single HMI.
Network Rail - Thameslink
To enable Thameslink rail to transform north-south rail travel through London, Network Rail conducted a range of electricity infrastructure works including the design, upgrade and relocation of substations.
Acting as CRE for the SCADA implementation side of the project, we co-ordinated numerous work packages with Network Rail and subcontractors to meet key delivery milestones whilst overseeing technical designs and identifying potential risks.
In terms on the HMI, we designed, implement and commissioned into service many substation renewals as the site teams progressed against an aggressive programme.
Storebaelt Bridge
The 18 km long bridge across the Great Belt (Storebælt) links together the eastern and western parts of Denmark.
The structure incorporates the East Bridge (suspension bridge), West Bridge (low-level bridge) and East Tunnel for the railway (undersea bored tunnel.)
This challenging project to replace an ageing SCADA system took 6 years to complete, interfacing to a number of external system including power, tunnel ventilation, lighting, fire, drainage, road signage, structural measurements, even fog detection.
It's not just a bridge!
Qatar Education City
Qatar Foundation (QF) launched the Education City Tram – a pioneering transport system that brings a new form of sustainable travel to Qatar by providing a seamless 11.5km rail link between Education City’s North and South campuses. With a total of 24 stations, it enables car-less, park-and-ride connections between QF’s schools, universities, centers, and facilities.
We were happy to support our client through the initial requirements capture phase and then through the detailed design process to get the project off the ground and moving.
Heathrow Airport
Heathrow’s oldest passenger terminal, the original Terminal 2 was closed in November 2009 and demolished a year later to make way for the construction of a future-ready terminal in its place
Working on behalf of BAA we were responsible for producing feasibility studies into the demolition of Terminal 2 and Queens building, ensuring the successful decommissioning of the building and its internal systems.
Southern Region Power Supply Upgrade
The Network Rail Southern Region Power Upgrade Project provided a much needed power boost to the existing rail infrastructure. This allowed newer, cleaner and smarter trains to be brought into service across the network and see an end to the old Mark 1 Slam Door Trains.
As the site renewals works progressed over a three year period the remote monitoring systems at Lewisham, Brighton and Eastleigh were continually updated to keep in sync with the tight commissioning program.
Metronet BCV
The Central line is a London Underground line that runs through central London, from Epping, Essex, in the north-east to Ealing Broadway and West Ruislip in the west. Coloured red on the Tube map, the line serves 49 stations over 46 miles.
The project successfully delivered a bespoke monitoring system into each of the 49 stations to monitor and record the signalling equipment relays and train movements.
Interconnector
The Interconnector is a natural gas pipeline between the United Kingdom and continental Europe. It crosses the North Sea between Bacton Gas Terminal in England and Zeebrugge in Belgium. Construction of the pipeline was completed in 1998.
It provides bi-directional transport capability to facilitate energy trading in both the UK and continental European gas markets. Gas export from the UK is termed "forward flow" and gas import to the UK is termed "reverse flow".
The yearly shutdown provides a window of opportunity to update the HMI and allow planned maintenance to be performed at the Bacton and Zeebrugge control centres.
East Coast Main Line
The East Coast Main Line (ECML) is a 393-mile long (632 km)[2] electrified railway[1] between London and Edinburgh via Peterborough, Doncaster, York, Darlington, Durham and Newcastle. The line is a key transport artery on the eastern side of Great Britain.
This high profile project not only upgraded the traction power infrastructure but also amalgamated both electrical control rooms at Hornsey and Doncaster into a single ECR located at York.
Control and monitoring of the railway and its assets were slowly migrated over to the new SCADA system before the old SCADA HMI was finally decommissioned.
