Wind Turbine Blade Inspection & Repair

Leading-edge erosion, lightning strike damage, and composite delamination reduce Annual Energy Production and can trigger catastrophic failure. Our GWO- and IRATA-certified blade technicians inspect, map, and repair defects onshore and offshore.

  • Leading-edge tape replacement and gel-coat repair
  • Structural composite patching and scarf repairs
  • Lightning protection system continuity testing
  • High-res photographic blade mapping for asset managers

Non-Destructive Testing

Welds crack. Steel corrodes. Lifting points degrade. Our PCN-qualified inspectors combine UT, MPI, and DPI with rope access to reach flare stacks, bridge trusses, and offshore derricks without shutting down adjacent plant.

  • Ultrasonic Testing (UT) for internal weld defects
  • Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) for surface cracks
  • Dye Penetrant Inspection (DPI) for non-ferrous materials
  • Digital reporting with defect sizing and Remaining Life Assessment

Offshore Platform Access

North Sea platforms demand constant maintenance: anode replacement, structural surveys, coating touch-ups, and helideck checks. Our offshore teams hold BOSIET, OGUK medicals, and IRATA Level 3 supervisory tickets.

  • 24-hour mobilisation to Aberdeen, Montrose, or Leith
  • BOSIET / FOET, OGUK medical, MIST certified
  • Hazardous Area Awareness and gas-detection protocols
  • Task-specific RAMS aligned with your Safety Case

Oil & Gas Platform Inspection & Maintenance

North Sea production platforms and FPSOs operate in the harshest marine environment on earth. Salt, fatigue, and corrosion attack steel around the clock. Our rope access teams inspect legs, nodes, braces, and decks without shutting down production. We replace anodes, apply coatings, and survey structural integrity in weather windows that conventional access cannot touch.

  • Platform inspection — legs, nodes, braces, decks
  • Flare stack inspection and repair at height
  • FPSO hull and turret access without dry-docking
  • Coating application and corrosion protection
  • Anode replacement and cathodic protection surveys
  • Confined space tank inspection and cleaning
  • Rigging and lifting operations offshore
  • Drop object surveys and secondary retention
