Skeldon’s sugar boiler goes down

Jul 06, 2010 News

A boiler at the multi-million-dollar Skeldon Sugar Factory went down yesterday after developing problems, officials of the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) said.
However, the setback will not affect the start of the second crop. Officials said that the maintenance crews were cleaning the Number One boiler when “technical difficulties” were experienced and the pressure parts damaged.
A team of officials, including Chairman, Dr. Nanda Kishore Gopaul, yesterday visited the factory to ascertain the extent of the damage.
“The officials have determined that the damage to the Number One Boiler will not result in a delay to the start of the second crop this year at Skeldon and will similarly not affect production during this period,” a senior official confirmed.
