Our Services
Our quality standards apply also in terms of service, technical expertise and advice.
Derrick Services
Through its early involvement with the API 4G rewrite committee in 2004 Cotech IRM were instrumental in the development of many Derrick Management Plans for our clients. To date we have performed over 600 Derrick Surveys. Reporting systems have evolved over the period of time but the essentials that we have continually reported on are the same secured items, method of retention, adequacy of retention, photographic registers, severity level, NDT on critical components etc.
Cotech Group not only provide inspection services on derrick structures and flare stacks, we also have fully qualified trades personnel to effect repairs to keep those structures safe.
Recent projects include:
- Girt change outs and repairs
- Fabrication and installation of belly board system
- 100 Percent bolt change-outs
- Fabrication and installation handrails and walkways
- Cable tray re- route and installation
- Installation of tie – back bracketing
- Remedial works securing potential dropped objects
- Crown block removal and installation
- Rigging
- Repairs to monkey board fingers
- Dolly track alignment and shimming
Drops Surveys
Once again, unlike some of our competitors we provide a report PRIOR to leaving the installation – little point in leaving the rig on completion of the survey with a potential dropped object for the client to wait two weeks for the report! All our surveys are completed utilizing trained Rope Access personnel. The only way to access all areas for a close up inspection!
