After the interest shown by one of the main producers of energy in Asia, in order to further assess certain criticalities of transformers, and after an initial diagnostic campaign (with oil analysis) on certain transformers, Sea Marconi received an invitation to present its solutions for the life cycle management of oil filled electrical equipment (Smart LCM) in Hong Kong, intended to prevent faults and protect the environment.
During the meeting, the participants manifested their firm appreciation of Sea Marconi’s proposals for damage prevention and environmental protection, subsequently leading to the drafting of an initial project agreement. We can’t reveal the details of the agreement, but shortly a pilot project for diagnostic engineering and integrated treatments on a significant number of strategic transformers in Hong Kong, will most certainly be implemented.
Sea Marconi uses the best available technology (BAT/BEP), which not only replicates the regulatory state-of-the-art, but is often one step ahead, offering accurate solutions before these have a chance of being incorporated into the otherwise slow, regulatory procedure.
Sea Marconi is used to this type of assessment, we welcome it as a challenge and as a motivation to keep on doing better. Speaking of challenges, we’d like to remind you of the recent challenge posed by Japan: to reach 0.05/kg as a limit for the dehalogenation of PCBs. Initially, this didn’t even seem like a measurable value; then, thanks to the efforts of Sea Marconi research, this limit was measured and subsequently surprisingly reached after a PCB dehalogenation treatment (CDP Process®).
Hong Kong is a region with 7,000,000 inhabitants, and is one of the most densely populated areas in the world. Hong Kong is in fact the most vertical city in the world. Its inhabitants have one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, and continuing its long list of records, it has the highest percentage (more than 90%) of public transport means in the world.
