Explore the sectors we work in

Maximising asset lifespan

Facing the constant rise and fall of water, challenging weather conditions and corrosive environment, both fixed and floating offshore structures are exposed to a range of threats in and around the ‘splashzone’.

OPTIMISING MARINE PERFORMANCE

Marine vessels are critical to the offshore energy industry. Due to the harsh environments that they operate in, together with round the year utilisation, they require regular inspection, repair and maintenance support.

maintaining Mature assets

When on and offshore assets enter the mature stage of their production life cycle, operators enter a challenging activity phase; looking to maximise efficient late-life production, without heavily investing in assets that will transition shortly into the decommissioning phase.

Work at height construction

Bridges, power stations, dams, communications masts, industrial facilities - our expertise in work at height construction delivers projects safely and effectively.

SUPPORTING NEW INFRASTRUCTURE

Hook-up and commissioning of an asset is the final stage, before it goes into operations. With conflicting workscopes, complex lifting operations and multiple access challenges, specialist expertise is critical to a successful project.
