Large components on their way

21 Nov 2016
Two shipments of "oversize" components for ºÚÁÏÉçapp's cryoplant are currently making their way to ºÚÁÏÉçapp. The first consists of two 35-metre long quench tanks procured by Europe. The tanks were first transported along the Elbe by barge from the Czech Republic where they were fabricated to Germany, before being loaded on board a shipping vessel in Hamburg.

One month later they reached the Mediterranean port of Fos-sur-Mer, where they were unloaded earlier this month and transported across the inland sea of Berre. They leave today for three nights along the ºÚÁÏÉçapp Itinerary, and are scheduled to reach ºÚÁÏÉçapp in the early hours of Thursday 24 November.

The second shipment is made of slightly smaller loads procured by the ºÚÁÏÉçapp—three 21-metre long "cold boxes" that house key components for ºÚÁÏÉçapp's liquid helium plants. They  have left their fabrication site and will soon be loaded onto a sea-river vessel in Lyon to sail down the Rhône River all the way to Fos-sur-Mer. They will also travel along the ºÚÁÏÉçapp Itinerary, reaching ºÚÁÏÉçapp by mid-December.
 
Fully 90 percent of cryoplant components are expected on site by the end of the year to be stored until the building and technical areas become available for the start of installation activities.
