Many projects in Thyborøn

The silo project is moving forward according to plan
Production Manager Lars Skøtt Nielsen states that the schedule with regard to the establishing of six new raw product silos at the factory in Thyborøn is being followed.

As mentioned in the last edition of 999 News, the first two silos have already been put into use, and all six silos have now been erected and covered with exterior plates.

All six silos will be ready in time for the sand eel season.

A pumping system is ready
The new pumping system, which is to transport the raw product from the piers to the silos, is also progressing according to plan.

The pumping system from pier 2 will be ready in time for the sand eel season while the Redler system from pier 1 will not be replaced with a pumping system until after the sand eel season.

Evaporator 3 will also be ready
Evaporator 3 will also be operation ready before the sand eel season.

A condenser is expected back in late February from a warranty repair and will be tested in February and March.

Faster unloading
Another pump to the transportation system has been established from build-up to production.

This will mean that unloading the raw products from the trucks can be done faster than before.

Calm period utilized for maintenance
In December and early January, the high activity level experienced in November has been replaced by a very calm period in the production with moderate supplies of raw products due to the amount of wind in this period.

- Otherwise, the annual maintenance of the entire production machinery is taking place according to plan, Lars Skøtt Nielsen closes.
