The stability of fuel supply in Southern Africa is set to increase significantly, following the completion of petro chemicals company Engen’s depot terminal upgrade project, which involved connecting a pipeline from the Engen depot, in Beira, Mozambique, to the Companhia Do Pipeline Mozambique–Zimbabwe Limitada (CPMZ) pumpstation inside the port, says engineering supplies specialist Incledon.

Incledon was contracted to supply a range of products to the project, which was completed at the end of 2014, after two years of construction, and is currently in operation. The scope of work included the supply of pipes, valves, gaskets, flanges, bends, T-pieces and reducers.

These products were supplied to petrochemicals infrastructure installation company Atmei Construction, which facilitated the aboveground mechanical infrastructure.

Incledon valves product manager Craig Thomson notes that Incledon supplied a range of Teji WCB cast-steel valves, which are fully compliant with American Petroleum Institute standards. The valves, comprising gate valves, ball and check valves, as well as basket strainers, ranged in diameter from 10 mm to 350 mm. The gate valves are available in pressure ratings of Class 150 and Class 300.

“Incledon is the sole South African importer of the Asia-based Teji range of industrial and petrochemicals valves, which are highly durable, reliable and easy to maintain and operate. These valves will be used to control, isolate and regulate the flow of hydrocarbons at the petrochemicals depot,” says Thomson.

Incledon was also contracted to supply valves to the depot’s fire-suppression reticulation system, including butterfly valves and wafer check valves, which use water and foam as the medium.

Atmei Construction logistics project and drafting manager Riaan Wiessener states that Atmei has been using Teji valves for the past eight years, owing to the products’ competitive prices and good quality.

“Incledon’s valves, pipes, weld-on fittings and screw fittings meet international standards and are being installed not only at fuel depots, but also at fuel and lubrication depots that Atmei constructs for mines throughout South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, Mozambique, Lesotho and Swaziland,” says Wiessener.
