Escape the Green Hydrogen Bubble

The Hydrogen Bubble is inflated by policy and subsidy-driven enthusiasm but mostly unsupported by commercial viability and / or executional readiness. With approximately > 1,500 project announcements to date and only around 217 (+/–) having reached Final Investment Decision (FID) or construction, real execution is drifting already dangerously far from the 2030 decarbonisation goals. Core […]

Announced Hydrogen Projects are Initiatives at best in a Subsidy- Driven Bubble

Most so-called “hydrogen projects” are more like initiatives rather than real projects with a clear path to commercial operation. The fundamental issue is the lack of long-term supply agreements, which are essential for Final Investment Decisions (FID). Without an FID, no real project moves forward, yet significant public funds are already spent on feasibility studies, […]

Project Site’s Life Saving Rules

A Construction Site bears hazards on many kinds. The fundamental basic rule is to avoid fatatlities, injuries, accidents. GS & Alliance Partners promote and implement 12 Life Saving Rules, because some of them can mean literally the difference between life and death. Workplace safety on a construction site is not only a term it is the license to construct.

DPGS & Alliance Partners invite you to speak to us about the life saving rules implementation, training, and the associates behaviour safety observations.

Policies & Procedures for Project Execution

The policy framework during project execution governs employee and contractors’ behavior and conduct onsite, reflecting fundamental principles that align with the project owner’s company culture.

Policy Examples which are critical onsite are:

  • Alcohol & Drug Policy
  • Consultation, Representation & Participation
  • Electrical Safety
  • Emergency  & First Aid Policy
  • Fitness for Work
  • Anti-discrimination Policy
  • Risk Management
  • Sexual Harassment Prevention
  • Smoke free Workplace Initiatives
  • Workplace Bullying Prevention

 

Procedure Examples which are critical onsite:

  • JHAs / SWMS
  • LOTO
  • NOE – Notice of Energization
  • Working at Heights
  • Confined Spaces Entry
  • Excavation
  • Critical Lifting of equipment
  • Traffic management

In summary, policies set the overarching principles and expectations, while procedures detail the specific steps to follow when implementing those principles in practice. Both are essential components of an effective governance framework within an organization or project.

DPGS & Alliance Partners have a wealth of experience for your benefit. We invite you discuss these project frameworks with us.

Project Management Plans

Project Management Plans represent a bundle of key essential plans to demonstrate how specifically the project shall be managed

In the realm of project management, the success of it soutcome hinges on a well-crafted and implemented group of plans. At DPGS & Alliance Partners, we recognize the integral role of specific plans within this bundle. Here’s a closer look some essential components:

Check Sheets

What are Check Sheets compared to Work Packs? In construction Check Sheets and Work Packs serve distinct but interconnected purposes. Check Sheets focus on the verification and quality control aspect, confirming that completed tasks align with the specified standards.

Interconnection:
Work Packs often include references to Check Sheets for inspection and verification purposes. Check Sheets are tools used within the broader framework of Work Packs to ensure that individual tasks are completed to the required standards.

In summary:
Work Packs provide a set of instructions for executing tasks within a sub-system of a project, while Check Sheets serve as tools within Work Packs, focusing on the verification and inspection of individual components of a completed task  to maintain quality standards.

Work Packs

Work Packs play a crucial role in streamlining processes from conception to operations, simplifying complex tasks throughout the project lifecycle.

The term Work Pack (WP) holds significant recognition in the construction industry, evolving to meet diverse needs arising from various construction activities. It functions as a fundamental tool for breaking down all aspects of a Construction Project, Pre-Commissioning, and Commissioning into well-defined, manageable instructions. These instructions are designed to be executed, budgeted, measured, and controlled per identified subsystem.

Key Points:

  • Work Packs serve as an essential component for the sequential handover process from construction to pre-commissioning and commissioning. Their completion and proper sign-off by responsible persons are critical for project success.
  • While traditionally the management of work packs was a manual process, the implementation of completions software has transformed and automated this process, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.


Detailed Features:

  • Work Packs are individually tailored for each discipline within a system or subsystem as determined by the project.
  • They encompass descriptions of specific tasks, detailed instructions, and documentation on how to complete each job. This includes related drawings, defining roles and responsibilities, and outlining safety requirements and inspection procedures.


Integrated within Completion Tools, Work Packs represent a shift towards automated, streamlined processes, ensuring precision and consistency in project execution.

The range of CO2 concentration in off gases varies, but for economical retrieval, concentrations typically above 5% are targeted.

Chemical Solutions:

Amine Solutions: Typically, alkanolamines like monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), or others are used to absorb CO2 from gas streams.

Potassium Carbonate: Applied in certain processes, it reacts with CO2 to form potassium bicarbonate.

Equipment for CO2 Recovery:

Scrubbers: Vessels or towers where the absorption of CO2 takes place. They contain the absorbent solution (such as amine solution) that captures CO2 from the off gases

Absorption Towers/Columns: Used for the contact between the gas and the solvent (amine solution).

Strippers: Separate the absorbed CO2 from the solvent.

Heat Exchangers: Used to regulate temperature in the absorption and desorption processes.

Compressors: Increase pressure for the transportation and storage of captured CO2.

CO2 Liquefaction:

We usually deal with cryogenic liquefaction, membrane separation & compression and supercritical fluid extraction. Key equipment iare liquefaction units, heat exchangers, expansion valves, storage tanks and others.

Our considerations for the technology selection are energy efficiency, scal and capacity plus required purity standards.

Some Example References:
