Decommissioning
Highly Trained for Decommissiong Demands
Rope access provides a safe and efficient way to support the decommissioning of offshore oil and gas platforms. Our highly trained, SPRAT and IRATA-certified technicians can reach difficult areas of a platform without the need for extensive scaffolding or traditional access equipment. Using specialized cutting techniques, our crews carefully dismantle piping, equipment, and structural components into manageable sections for safe removal by crane and transfer to a barge. An important part of this process is weight shedding, where smaller components and unnecessary materials are removed first to reduce the overall weight of larger structures. This allows for safer, more efficient lifting operations while maintaining the platform's structural stability throughout the decommissioning process. By combining rope access expertise with careful planning and controlled removal methods, we help make offshore decommissioning projects safer, more efficient, and cost-effective.
Norm Removal
We have successfully completed large-scale NORM removal projects, including cargo tanks and topside installations at sea, to prepare assets for refitting or decommissioning. NORM services include expert surveying, sampling, laboratory analysis, decontamination, tubular cleaning, waste minimization, and mobile unit support to ensure the safe and compliant handling of naturally occurring radioactive materials.
De-mucking
We can erect any type of scaffolding required onboard to access tank internals or carry out external maintenance and repair work on the vessel. We also have systems in place for hull repairs above the waterline, as well as for accommodations and engine casings.
Asbestos Removal
We have a team of specialized personnel ready to undertake all types of asbestos removal onboard marine and offshore installations.
