Fonterra Te Rapa Ammonia Engine Rooms Hazardous Area Upgrades

Over the course of 5 years, we designed and implemented ammonia engine room hazardous area monitoring and control upgrades for 6 engine rooms across the Te Rapa site, implementing Fonterra’s strategy for standardised controls. One of these, namely the Plate Freezer room, was done under tight timeframes after a 10T ammonia leak caused a site wide evacuation of several weeks. Our work formed part of a broader upgrade of ammonia safety.
