• Rig Audit
• Derrick / Mast Inspection
• Loose Lifting Equipment
• Padeyes, beams and other fixed lifting items
• Baskets, skips, gas racks, lifting frames (CCU’s)
• Drilling handling tools
• Magnetic particle inspection, Eddy Current(MPI/NDT/ET)
• Crane
• Forklifts
• Lifeboat/Life rafts davits and deployment systems
• UT Gauging on high pressure lines and high pressure vessels
• Dropped objects surveys
• Rope access

OES inspection reports are compiled with the inclusion of substantial photographic and visual references making it easier for post inspection work to be completed. Core sections are also made available online at www.certrack.com where the client can securely log in, access, interact with and update certain sections of the report. In addition www.certrack.com also enables clients to:

View and search all visual, test, MPI and corrective action registers
View quarantined and rejected registers. View the corrective actions register (CAR); which highlights all major findings during the Inspections, as well as allowing the CAR to be updated to its current status, which acts as centralised “live” document between those involved; for example the Rig Manager (offsite) and the rig personnel (onsite).
Create lists of equipment added to or removed from the rig site.
Download a copy of the report.

OES has become industry renowned for its accurate, intuitive and detailed reports which provide practical tools for clients to utilise in working towards improvements in safety and efficiency. We understand that providing the best report we can, gives our clients the best tool to implement improvements. We also know that information is only of use if clients can find what they are looking for and easily interpret our findings, therefore OES’ reports are laid out in a manner that our clients have had as much say in as we have.

We know that each rig is an individual operation and each inspection we conduct is different, therefore our work-scopes and reports are carefully tailored to meet the requirements of each job.

Compiled using easy to understand terminology, report binders are sectionalised via custom made “quick reference” dividers and soft copies are electronically bookmarked, effortless.

DROPPED OBJECT SURVEY – DROPSTRACK

A dramatic increase in the oil industry’s awareness of dropped objects and potential dropped object scenarios surge in requirement for inspections. has prompted a these specialised inspections.

Selecting OES’s dropped objects package (DropsTrack) takes the headache out of initiating a dropped objects program, by providing an off-the-shelf solution.

OES provide qualified inspectors to conduct a thorough dropped objects survey of the Derrick/Mast and agreed surrounding areas, documenting findings with photographic support and providing recommendations for their rectification. All findings are then presented in our exclusive corrective actions register format in hard, soft and interactive online copies.

The team also prepare a complete dropped objects scheduled-inspection follow-up program, for post OES inspections by the rig crew. This program is built on a level-by-level basis, detailing items to be checked and what to look for, text is clear and easy to follow, with all items supported by a photographic reference.

OES also have a broad range of experience reviewing, implementing and following up on client’s pre-purchased or internal dropped objects packages should another format be agreed for dropped objects. This ranges from implementing a clients own; or already purchased, dropped objects package to auditing an already implemented dropped objects program.

OES Liquid Penetrant Inspection

Liquid Penetrant Inspection (LPI) is one of the most widely used non-destructive testing (NTD) methods. Its popularity can be attributed to two main factors: its relative ease of use and its flexibility. LPI can be used to inspect almost any material provided that its surface is not extremely rough or porous.

LPI offers flexibility in performing inspections because it can be applied in a large variety of applications ranging from automotive spark plugs to critical oil and gas components. Penetrant can be applied with a spray can or a cotton swab to inspect for discontinuities known to occur in a specific area or it can be applied by dipping or spraying to quickly inspect large areas. In the image on the right, visible dye penetrant has been locally applied to a highly loaded connecting point to check for fatigue cracking.

OES Magnetic Particle Inspection

Magnetic Particle Inspection (MT) is a non-intrusive method used for detecting defects using magnetic fields and small magnetic particles (i.e. iron filings) to detect flaws in components.

MT is fast and relatively easy to apply, and part surface preparation is not as critical as it is for some other NDT methods. The only requirement from an inspection standpoint is that the component being inspected must be made of a ferromagnetic material such as iron, nickel, cobalt, or some of their alloys.

Ferromagnetic materials are materials that can be magnetized to a level that will allow the inspection to be effective. These characteristics make MT one of the most widely utilized non-destructive testing methods.

OES Acoustic Emission (noise Level) Surveys

Acoustic Emission Surveys are carried out by OES personnel utilizing fully calibrated noise monitoring devices and bespoke software.
Surveys are conducted at the request of the client on both on and offshore facilities, to establish and record background noise levels and qualify noise levels win accordance with the industry standard.

OES RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)

All of the OES services can now be enhanced though RFID tagging, RFID (or Radio Frequency Identification) provides a method of attaching tag to an asset to aid rapid information retrieval. A scan of a tag would pull up information about that asset, including manufacturer information, inspection certificates, maintenance information and so on. An RFID tag can be thought of like a barcode, except is much more rugged, cannot be copied or tampered. It also does not necessarily require line of sight to get a read. This is especially useful for warehousing stock control and management.

Through our partner Askaris, we can also provide innovative database solutions which are especially suited to use in the Oil & Gas Sector. Featuring true scalable architecture, it is able to manage many millions of assets without performance degradation. it also works in environments where there is poor or no internet connectivity.

Applications using RFID technology include:
ARCUS-EX EX Survey with RFID tagging
ARCUS-HORM Hose Register Management
ARCUS- PIPE Drill pipe management
ARCUS-TRACK Asset and maintenance management
ARCUS-DOPP Proactive Dropped Object Prevention Programme.

OES Ultrasonic Flaw Detection & Thickness Gauging

These two main ultrasonic methods use high frequencies sound energy to indicate material defects such as longitudinal and transverse cracks (flaw detection) and dimensional charges such as thickness (thickness gauging).

Typically the UT inspection system consists of a transducer, pulser/receiver, and display unit. A pulser/receiver is an electronic device that can produce high voltage electrical pulses to the transducer. When driven by the pulser, the transducer generates high frequencies ultrasonic sound energy into the material in the form of sound waves. When there are discontinuities. such as inclusions, porosity, cracks, etc. in the sound path, part of the mechanical energy will be reflected from the discontinuities ‘(reflectors;) surface.
