Reviewed 15 August 2026 · geometry completeness 61/100 · Medium for layout, process capacity and systems; low for total area, excavation volume and current replacement total.
The linked hybrid model has a base concept of about SEK 345.3m. It transparently uses 2,750 m² / 29,601 ft², the midpoint of the publisher's visual guess, then derives 16,500 m³ excavation and most structural quantities by archetype factors. Its 2,500 m³ process capacity is more directly grounded. This is a fragile area basis, and existing-site remediation is excluded despite the article's contamination history.
Supported useAnonymous focal protected military fuel store with three rock chambers, a rail transfer connection, two reported tanks totaling about 2,500 m³, pumps, fire systems, reserve power, own well, an escape rise and three SK10 personnel shelters. The article's 2,500–3,000 m² / 26,910–32,292 ft² area is explicitly a publisher guess, not a survey. Long sections on Broddbo, Moheda and Blädinge are contextual examples and must not be assigned to the focal site.
Geometry evidencearea_m2: range: 2500; 3000 | unit: m² | scope: focal rock facility | note: Publisher's visual guess, not measured or archival area. | height_m: value: 7 | unit: m | scope: first reported fuel tank | note: Tank height, not cavern clear height. | span_m: value: 6 | unit: m | scope: largest reported chamber width | note: The largest chamber is reported up to 50 m long. | portals: value: 1 | unit: main portal | scope: focal facility | note: Protected by outer doors, a cable-operated concrete barrier and a shock door. | shafts: value: 1 | unit: escape rise | scope: focal facility | note: Steel-ladder rise of approximately 8–9 m. | inner_structure: value: 3 | unit: rock chambers | scope: focal storage complex | note: Shotcrete, reinforcement mesh, concrete floors and perimeter drainage are described.; value: 2 | unit: large fuel tanks | scope: principal tank chamber | note: One nearly 500 m³ and one 2,000,000 litres; wording around the second tank's approximately 40 m depth needs plan confirmation. | other: value: 50 | unit: m | scope: maximum reported chamber length | note: Associated width is 6 m; height is not reported.; value: 2500 | unit: m³ fuel capacity | scope: two principal reported tanks | note: Screening sum of nearly 500 m³ and 2,000,000 litres; tank inventory ambiguity remains.; value: 3 | unit: SK10 personnel shelters | scope: site perimeter/crown | note: Each held 10 lying or 20 seated personnel.; range: 10; 15 | unit: t | scope: main entrance concrete barrier | note: Publisher estimate of barrier weight, not blast resistance.
Systems describedRail siding, buried pipelines, pumps and additive-handling room; Own well and reserve generator; Dedicated fire-protection system, hydrants, mobile pumps and lake-water pump; Ventilation, fuel-vapour exhaust and generator exhaust at the crown; Manual-ventilation SK10 personnel shelters with stove and field-radio/telephone outlet; Locker and shower facilities; no kitchen, lodging or toilets inside the principal cavern
Primary cost driversStorage-chamber excavation and unknown clear height; Fuel tanks and 2,500 m³ process capacity; Rail/pipeline transfer system and pumps; Fire suppression and hazardous-area ventilation; Heavy portal/barrier and escape rise; Contamination control and decommissioning boundary
Unit / programme scopeOne anonymous focal fuel facility. The six wartime central depots, Moheda accident, Broddbo accident and Blädinge civil store are contextual program/class examples and are not focal-site geometry.
Revision directionIndeterminate
Missing inputsMeasured floor area and chamber sections; Total excavated volume; Exact tank count, geometry and 40 m depth interpretation; Portal and barrier drawings; Rail and pipeline lengths; Fire-system capacity and hazardous-area standard; Geology, drainage and groundwater data; Contamination/remediation survey; Historic construction and decommission costs
Site / data issuesThe dossier atomic table labels 10–15 as entrance-barrier resistance and drops the unit; the source says estimated barrier weight of 10–15 tonnes.; The dossier headline gives no area while the model uses a 2,750 m² / 29,601 ft² midpoint; that hidden dependency should be visible at headline level.; The circa-1953 commissioning date is inferred from about 40 years of service before 1993, not explicitly reported.; Broddbo, Moheda and Blädinge dimensions/capacities belong to other sites and must not contaminate the focal model.; The source reports a private purchase in 2003 but no sale price.
