Solution Preparation Suites and services upgrades

In late 2012 Triplenine Group was awarded a contract by AstraZeneca, Macquarie Park to fit out an existing solution preparation suite. Triplenine successfully completed this suite on time and within budget, this lead to Triplenine being engaged to carry out further Solution Preparation Suites upgrades. 
To date 8 suites in total have now been successfully completed and commissioned. 

Challenge

Each Solution Prep suite has a build duration of approx 3 months  with a site crew of 10 personnel per suite.
Our workshop fabricates the internal access platform, stainless steel wall plates, wall & ceiling plates for the build. The platform is built in sections for installation as it surrounds each of the tanks, electrical cabling is run through the platform & junctioned out through stainless steel conduits to the termination points.

The critical piping for each suite averages out to be around 2200 orbital welds, each weld is externally inspected & 20% of the welds are internally inspected by boreoscope & recorded for Quality assurance to ASME BPE spec.

Each of the lines were Pressure tested to 1.5 times operation pressure & recorded to the QA documents then flushed with purified water before being internally passivated. Triplenine Group have a  stand alone passivation system that is able to perform passivations at both ambient & high temp passivations. Lines are cycled & flushed with a caustic solution for cleaning & descaling then flushed with purified water before cycling with a citric solution. All passivations are recorded with cycle times, PH levels for both caustic acid, Citric acid & Purified water flushes for the QA document package.
 
Over the duration of projects within AstraZeneca Triplenine Group have recorded over 22,300 welds ranging in sizes from 6mm Diameter tubing up to 101mm diameter tube, all of which have been performed by trained & qualified operators.

Services upgrade project

In early 2018 Triplenine successfully completed the installation of a new water room. The project consisted of the installation of new storage tanks, RO pre-treatment skid, WFI still, Pure Steam Generator & Heat exchangers. All new equipment was craned into the building and maneuvered into their final positions within the new dedicated clean room. Installation of interconnecting piping as well as the required services piping for the plant.
The scope also included the installation of new distribution systems. New Hot & Cold WFI & Pure Steam Ringmains were installed throughout the entire plant. Carefull planning was also required to tie in the user points to the existing plant
The build consisted of 100% 316L ASME BPE High Purity Piping with Electro-polished internal finish, all being Orbital welded under clean room conditions with 100% Material Identification & Traceability.
