“Our expertise in all types of environmental hazard, technical rigour and our objective

independence mean that you can be assured your interests are always protected.”

“Our unique approach means that decommissioning can become a revenue opportunity.”

ASSET RECOVERY AND REMARKETINGMAKING DECOMMISSIONING A REVENUE OPPORTUNITY

We recover the maximum asset value for our customers and return it to them through the acquisition and re-sale of their surplus or redundant process plant equipment and machinery. A pioneer in this method, it is what sets our approach to decommissioning apart in the marketplace.

Dedicated to delivering the maximum return from safe redundant process plant, we create re-sale programmes tailored to your specific needs. We remarket and sell surplus plant inventory from single items of equipment to complete process plants. Applying our full-service decommissioning expertise we help you to identify and realise the value of redundant assets.

We fully underwrite the value of a project and guarantee you both a minimum financial return on your redundant assets and a specified larger share of any revenues we achieve in excess of this value.

Our approach enables you to offset your returns on redundant process plant inventory against decommissioning costs – and even turn decommissioning into an unexpected revenue opportunity.

Every item of decommissioned equipment – single machines, process units and entire plants – is marketed through our global networks and shipped to buyers worldwide to achieve its best possible return.

Decommissioned equipment is marketed through our global network partners and shipped to buyers worldwide to achieve its best possible return.

ASSET RECOVERY AND REMARKETING SERVICES PROVIDED BY:

Our specialist access services support the completion of all types of remediation, maintenance, shutdown and construction works in industrial and commercial environments.

Whatever the challenges presented by the project’s location – live industrial facility, city-centre office block, active retail outlet or historically significant building – or its size, height and environmental considerations, we can supply fully scalable access systems appropriate to the task:

• Mobile elevated work platforms (MEWPs)• Rope access• Suspended cradles• System scaffolding• Tube and fitting scaffolding

As circumstances differ between structures, we design and engineer each access system to overcome the constraints specific to each site and satisfy the project’s particular requirements for access, public safety, environmental protection and operational continuity.

Our erection teams’ commitment to the safety of everyone on site when constructing and dismantling our access systems is ensured by their rigid adherence to industry best practice guidelines.

ACCESSSPECIALIST ACCESS WHATEVER THE CHALLENGE

Whatever the challenge we can supply fully scalable access systems appropriate to the task.

ACCESS SERVICES PROVIDED BY:

DECONTAMINATIONENSURING CLEAN, SAFE ENVIRONMENTS

Our experience of asbestos removal in the built environment and the decommissioning of intrinsically high hazard nuclear, chemical, petrochemical and pharmaceutical facilities is unrivalled. This makes us uniquely qualified to provide a complete range of decontamination and compliance management services.

We provide a range of structured contaminant removal, industrial cleaning, and chemical and biological treatment services. These are designed to make safe, remove and dispose of mineral, heavy metal, chemical and biological contaminants in all their forms.

Localised or large scale – cleansing buildings, plant, machinery, production and storage vessels, pipework, ventilation ducting, drains and soils – our fully accredited decontamination processes ensure that works can be completed in total safety. All this with minimal disruption and production downtime or risk to people on site and in the wider community or wildlife.

We provide total decontamination management solutions – from surveying and analysis, strategy development, management planning and project planning, through contaminant-specific cleansing and the supervision of removal works, to providing end-certification of cleanliness and compliance tracking systems.

Following decontamination, we undertake a rigorous testing programme to ensure that decontamination has been completed to the designated standard.

We undertake structured contaminant removal, industrial cleaning, and chemical and biological treatment services creating clean and safe environments.

MAINTENANCEENSURING OPERATIONAL CONTINUITY

Our preventative maintenance programmes help customers reduce the risk of plant failures and costly unscheduled shutdowns.

Allied to our thermal insulation, protective coating, access and decontamination industrial service capabilities, we can provide a range of maintenance services. These will enable site operators to manage and extend the life and efficiency of production plant, machinery, infrastructure and buildings.

We can help you to plan a regular inspection regime and a regular and preventative maintenance schedule to protect your assets throughout their lifecycle.

Our teams are experienced operators and understand high hazard environments. Whether working at height or in confined spaces, we provide a full range of industrial support services that will integrate with your maintenance, fabrication and construction programmes. Our approach maintains the integrity of your electrical, mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, plant machinery, infrastructure and buildings.

THERMAL INSULATIONWe provide an extensive range of high performance thermal, acoustic and cryogenic industrial insulation solutions.

Our innovative modular Kalzip external insulation system is designed for easy installation and removal to aid maintenance and inspection.

of failure and costly downtime.”

“Our carefully structured techniques allow you toachieve maximum value from your equipment and infrastructure assets through re-use or sale.”

DISMANTLINGRECOVERING ASSET VALUE THROUGH DISMANTLING

We provide plant decommissioning with a difference, undertaking skilled structured dismantling to maximise the residual value of redundant assets and make them ready for re-use or re-sale worldwide.

Carefully dismantled, assets can be prepared for re-use on site and redundant or surplus items can be packaged and remarketed for sale and use elsewhere worldwide.

It is an approach that enables you to recover the residual value in your surplus assets and offset your costs; we have been consistently delivering value in this way for two decades.

Equally applicable to the dismantling of single machines, entire process plants and the deconstruction of buildings, dismantling is the skilled and careful reversal of the construction process.

We work with you to tailor the project to your precise needs. With experience and expertise in the most sophisticated modelling and dismantling techniques, we help you plan, co-ordinate and execute the complexities of your dismantling project within your time scales. Or even when working in ‘live’ environments, we can achieve this with minimum disruption to your day-to-day operation.

Our specialist process plant division can provide you with a complete package of turnkey dismantling solutions.

We help you to execute the complexities of your dismantling project with minimum disruption to your day-to-day operation.
