Lambo

Due to the very short half-life of radon, it needs to be measured ideally within about 4 days of the sample being taken.  The samples currently held by Core Lab will therefore be of no further use in determining radon levels.

Because of this problem, we made arrangements to measure the radon levels offshore at the time of sampling.  The level measured was 26.9 Beq/m3 (“normal” formation radon concentrations are quoted by the lab as being in the range 10 – 100 Beq/m3).

Unfortunately, only one measurement was made.  There is nothing we can do about this now but we have taken steps to ensure that at least three measurements are made on the Shannon well if it is tested.

Hope this is of use.  Please call me if you need any further information.

Regards

David Grant

John/Peter – see KDR present, Peter – see attached HoT for tariff calculation and confirmation of our telecon re BGE meeting on Thursday 12th Oct as follows;

Include terminal metering, odourisation etc into the Link budget (acknowledging that Lambo has included this in the terminal EPC tender) – BGE will own and pay 15% ,  we transfer 85% of the capital cost to tariff.  Also encourage BGE to include AGI/Letdown station at Galway in the Ringmain costs – ie removing capital completely (Gerry Keane indicated off the record that this was what they intended to do).

Also since the difference between 26 and 30” in now only £4.5 mm – I would work on the basis that it is 30” , it gives a lot more linepack and if we can get BGE to pay their 15% so much the better.  If we decide on a 26” then we can substitute the lower cost at a later date.  You might enquire (subtly!) when we need to fix the diameter.

Regards

Mike
