East Ham Rail Depot

Project Overview

Project Value: £1.5m
Location: East Ham Rail Depot, London
Project type: Rail

East Ham Depot is a depot on the London, Tilbury and Southend line between East Ham and Barking with the depot code EM. Spencer rail commissioned ProGen to provide a turnkey MEP package on the large rail depot within London.

The Challenge

As a part of this brief, ProGen was commissioned to provide full electrical and mechanical services, which included mains distribution and fabricated pipework.

As this was such an in-depth project, we had to work as efficiently as possible to ensure we completed the work on time and to the highest standards, while also considering the critical safety procedures of working trackside.

The Solution

Utilising the extensive experience of ProGen’s project management and site teams, a full design and interface with suppliers and specialist sub-contractors was managed, coordinated & executed successfully.

Key deliverables of equipment supply was an ever-challenging demand to the contract and programming of activities due to the very tight constraints of the site and available working areas, but our teams navigated this issue professionally.

The full extent of Progen’s design and installation responsibility included:

Co-ordination and Design

ProGen’s in-house design team provided full design of the MEP systems, and we avoided any clashes from other services existing on site. A full 3D design of the installation was produced, which allowed for accurate manufacture of pipe spools and bracketry throughout.

Piping Infrastructure

ProGen provided the full piping infrastructure for the works, which included pipe bracketry and gantries, all manufactured within our fabrication workshop and erected on site. The pumps and valves where all designed and erected by ProGen’s mechanical team.
