1. Bolting Services
Bolting services involve the installation and removal of bolts used in critical connections such as pipelines, pressure vessels, and equipment. These services include:
- Bolt installation: Skilled technicians use specialized equipment to install bolts to the required specifications, including the appropriate torque and tension.
- Bolt removal: Bolts must be removed carefully to avoid damage to the components they are securing. Skilled technicians use specialized equipment to remove bolts safely and efficiently.
- Inspection: After installation or removal, the bolts are inspected to ensure that they meet the required standards for quality and safety.
2. Tensioning services
Tensioning services are used to ensure that bolts are tightened to the required tension. Over-tightening or under-tightening bolts can lead to leaks, equipment failure, or other safety hazards. Tensioning services include:
- Tensioning processes: There are several types of tensioning methods, including hydraulic and manual tensioning. Skilled technicians use the appropriate tensioning process based on the requirements of the project and the standards and regulations that apply.
- Calibration: Tensioning equipment must be calibrated regularly to ensure it operates accurately. Skilled technicians calibrate tensioning equipment to the required specifications.
- Inspection: After tensioning, the bolts are inspected to ensure that they are tightened to the required tension.
3. Flange Management services
Flange management services are used to ensure that flanged connections are installed and maintained properly. Flanges are critical components that connect two pipes or vessels together, and they must be installed and maintained carefully to prevent leaks and other safety hazards.
Flange management services include:
- Installation: our skilled technicians use specialized equipment to install flanges to the required specifications, including the appropriate torque and alignment.
- Inspection: Flanges must be inspected regularly to ensure that they are operating safely and efficiently. Inspection methods may include visual inspection, ultrasonic testing, and magnetic particle testing.
- Maintenance: Flanges must be maintained regularly to prevent leaks and other safety hazards. Maintenance may include cleaning, lubrication, and replacement of gaskets and bolts.
- Documentation: Detailed reports are generated that provide information on the installation, inspection, and maintenance of flanges.

- In-line overhaul
Hydrostatic Testing
Hydrostatic testing services are critical to the safe and efficient operation of oil and gas facilities, and they involve the testing of various types of equipment and pipelines to ensure that they are safe and reliable.
The process involves filling the equipment or pipeline with water or another test medium and pressurizing it to a specified level to ensure that it can withstand the pressure and stresses it will encounter during normal operation.
Some of the specific equipment and systems that may undergo hydrostatic testing include:
Pressure vessels
Hydrostatic testing is used to ensure that pressure vessels, such as storage tanks and boilers, are safe and reliable. The vessels are filled with water and pressurized to a specified level to ensure that they can withstand the pressures they will encounter during normal operation.
Pipelines
Hydrostatic testing is used to ensure that pipelines used for transporting oil and gas are safe and reliable. The pipelines are filled with water and pressurized to a specified level to ensure that they can withstand the pressures and stresses they will encounter during normal operation.
Valves and fittings
Hydrostatic testing is used to ensure that valves and fittings used in oil and gas facilities are safe and reliable. The valves and fittings are filled with water and pressurized to a specified level to ensure that they can withstand the pressures and stresses they will encounter during normal operation.
Piping systems
Hydrostatic testing is used to ensure that piping systems used in oil and gas facilities are safe and reliable. The piping systems are filled with water and pressurized to a specified level to ensure that they can withstand the pressures and stresses they will encounter during normal operation.
