From geotechnical preparation and reinforced foundations to tank installation, piping and automation, we deliver a turnkey fuel storage facility within an operational airport. The goal is reliable operation, minimal spill risk and seamless compatibility with airport procedures.
Project Facts
- Location: Santorini (Thira) International Airport — JTR
- Scope: Construction of fuel storage tanks and ancillary infrastructure
- Our role: Front-end & detailed design (civil/MEP), permitting, coordination and site supervision
Scope of Works
- Earthworks & concrete: excavation, temporary support, reinforced bases/walls and industrial slab.
- Tanks & piping: installation of tanks, suction/return lines, vents and overfill protection.
- Environmental safeguards: bunded containment, impermeable graded surfaces, stormwater collection and oil–water separation.
- Electrical & controls: earthing/lightning protection, area lighting, level monitoring, local control and remote alarms.
- Fire safety & ATEX: firefighting network, signage/zoning and spill-prevention/response plan.
Project Specifics
Design tailored to the island/coastal environment (corrosion, wind) and to safe construction within an operational airport with minimal disruption to existing fuel operations.
Compliance
Compliant with Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority requirements and international best practice for fuel facilities (tanks, piping, fire safety and ATEX), prioritising safety, traceability and environmental protection.
QA/QC & Testing
- Tightness/hydrostatic tests, earthing measurements and functional checks of instrumentation/controls.
- As-built documentation, test records and frequent progress reports to the owner.
Outcome
A safe, efficient and fully compliant fuel storage installation within Santorini International Airport.
