HV Engineering designed the mechanical and plumbing systems in this three story oil company camp facility located six miles off Prudhoe Bay on the Northslope of Alaska. This project was completed in the Fall of 2000. Employees of HVE were also involved in the commissioning of the project.

Design Challenges
The North Slope is a unique area for human habitation.  The environmental extremes of -60°F and 100mph winds create interesting challenges for the HVAC systems as well.  Design solutions include insulating and heat tracing the sewer piping below the building, as well as housing refrigerator/freezer condensers to keep these cooling items warm enough that the refrigeration cycle completes.
