In April 2015 ILF Consulting Engineers in association with AF-Consult were commissioned by Pumpspeicherkraftwerk Koralm GmbH to provide the engineering services for the Koralm pumped storage plant in Styria, Austria.
The project essentially consists of the plant components upper and lower reservoirs, headrace, penstock and tailrace, surge tank, cavern power house with access tunnel, tunnel system, power transmission line and switchyard. The plant capacity is about 940 MW and the head approx. 650 m. After its completion, the Koralm pumped storage plant will be the most powerful hydropower plant in Austria.
The tasks of the association of consulting engineers included a project review and a feasibility study. The next steps are the preparation of tender documents and construction design as well as the services to be provided for local site supervision.

On 17 March 2015, at exactly 12 oai??i??clock, the breakthrough between Sigirino and Vezia in the west tube of the southern section of the Ceneri Base Tunnel was completed with a final blast. Only two weeks later, on 30 March 2015, the breakthrough in the southbound east tube was achieved. The remaining excavation works in northern direction are progressing at full speed ai??i?? a distance of approx. 2,000 m remains to be excavated in the west tube and approx. 1,500 m in the east tube. The 15.4 km long railway tunnel in Switzerland is scheduled to be put into operation in December 2019.

Together with EBP AG and vonMoos AG, ILF Consulting Engineers was commissioned to carry out the ai???safety-oriented investigationai??? (same as for the Gotthard Base Tunnel). This includes checking all documents which are of relevance to prove the load-bearing capacity and usability of the tunnel structures. In addition, ILF is part of an expert team to provide support during excavation works. The team regularly visits the site and is called-in in the event of critical situations. Assuming this role, ILF can contribute its experience to optimise design and execution and play a significant part in making the project a technological and financial success.

ILF Consulting Engineers was commissioned by the Toyota Tsusho Cooperation to prepare a feasibility study and the preliminary design for a crude oil pipeline. The project comprises a pipeline system covering 1,500 km and pipeline diameters of 24ai??? and 30ai???, and it shall connect the oil fields near Hoima, Uganda and Lokichar, Kenya with the port of export in Lamu. The pipeline shall transport waxy crude oil with an unusually high wax appearance temperature of 60 Ai??C. That is why full-system heating over the entire pipe length is required. Special challenges are the complex crossings of the Nile River and the Rift Valley.
