Owners engineer services for the removal of SO2, SO3, NOx and particles from flue gas of Schwechat refinery power plant (fired by high sulphur fuel). The project required highly sophisticated project management services in order to comply with the very tight project schedule which was successfully accomplished in October 2007. Extremely small size of construction site (55 x 60 m) challenged site management considerably.
