EPR construction at Hinkley Point C

Preparation, Precision, Performance: DIEPCM at the service of the EPR

DIEPCM manages preheating and post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) operations on the secondary circuit of the EPR currently under construction at Hinkley Point C.

This circuit, a key element of the installation, transports high-pressure steam to the Arabelle turbine, the world’s largest steam turbine, for electricity generation.

As part of this project, the DIEPCM team is concentrating on implementing technical solutions that guarantee the quality and reliability of the welds, while complying with stringent nuclear safety requirements. Hinkley Point C recently published a video showing the progress of the worksite and the installation of its major components – further proof of the strategic and technological importance of this new power plant.

COBA DGS System Qualification - EagleBurgmann

From Prototype to Validation: DIEPCM pushes COBA DGS to conquer TSO stations

DIEPCM represents EagleBurgmann as project manager for the implementation of a COBA DGS mechanical seal, manufactured in Germany.

This mission involves the international coordination of three departments, with the aim of ensuring the conformity and qualification of the complete system on a TSO station.

Within this framework, DIEPCM piloted the first qualification solution for this device with a view to its installation on a new station. Thanks to this intervention, GRT gaz benefits from tailor-made technical support and project management, guaranteeing compliance with performance and safety requirements.

This first installation of COBA DGS paves the way for the potential equipping of all the substations concerned, as part of the development and modernization of the GRT network.

This project bears witness to DIEPCM’s ability to carry out demanding missions involving several players and strict regulatory requirements.
