Optimizing the Integrity of Your Structures
Structural Integrity Management (SIM) is vital for ensuring the safety of personnel and assets on offshore units, which are frequently subjected to harsh conditions like massive waves, extreme cold, or storms.
At GIKO ENGINEERING LIMITED, we recognize the complexities involved in monitoring and maintaining the integrity of your offshore installations. Our SIM process involves a comprehensive assessment of structural design, fabrication quality, technical documentation, and inspection procedures. This thorough evaluation helps identify potential weak points and develop effective mitigation measures.
Our aim is to achieve optimal results by harmonizing practical field efforts with detailed integrity assessments conducted in the office. Combining solid theoretical expertise and extensive hands-on experience, we utilize collected data to accurately evaluate the current condition of your structures.
