Hydraulic Equipment: Why is Maintenance Essential?
Here at Apex Hydraulics we recently completed work on another off-shore project, this time on the West Phoenix semi-submersible rig.
Currently located in the North Sea, this mobile rig was in need of specially tailored cylinders measuring in at a mighty 7 metres in length, so they did the right thing and came to the experts. Even our expertise was pushed to the limit when we were working out the practicalities of these specialist cylinders, and we were grateful to be able to call on so much first-hand experience!
Just like every other cylinder we manufacture, all of the work carried out on the West Phoenix underwent a rigorous range of pressure and NDT tests and is now fully DNV certified. Even including the time it takes to carry out these lengthy checks, we are proud to announce that the whole project only lasted for 12 weeks from beginning to end.
For obvious reasons, our customer was delighted by the fact that we were able to complete this service in such a short space of time, which allowed them to get back to work with the minimum amount of lost time.
Just another day at the office when you’re the UKs leading manufacturer of bespoke hydraulics.
