Case Study: Portsmouth Harbour

We were contacted by Wightlink to carry out a survey and recommend the most appropriate solution to allow safe access onto the tops of the tanks for the sounding caps and level sensors which are used to monitor the tank fuel levels.

KeeGuard which has been designed specifically to provide collective edge protection for metal profile roofs allows safe access onto both tanks while Kee Walk anti-slip walkway provides a level walking surface to the sounding caps and level sensors.

“As the platforms are floating it’s essential that those working on top of the tanks are protected“ explains Ben Phillips, Route Superintendent. “Safesite was able to offer a combined solution, providing both fall protection and a safe, firm surface to walk on.”
