Client: Drax Power Station
Location: North Yorkshire
Service: Structural inspections using rope access
Challenge
Drax required comprehensive inspections of historic steelwork at its Mill Bay and Track Hopper House structures. Access was complex and required precision inspection to assess condition and safety without disrupting ongoing operations.
Our approach
Amrose’s experienced structural engineers conducted detailed inspections using rope access techniques to reach critical areas safely and efficiently.
Working within Drax’s inspection protocols, we combined data-driven insights with engineering judgement, providing balanced recommendations that reflected the client’s operational and safety priorities.
Outcome
•Comprehensive inspection of historic structural steelwork
•Actionable reporting with prioritised maintenance recommendations
•Engineering insight balancing safety, cost, and asset longevity
Result: A practical, engineering-led inspection programme that gave Drax clear, evidence-based insights into the condition of vital plant structures helping them plan for safe, sustainable operations.
