Pressure Control Equipment Inspection And Repairs

Fairtex Group are experts in inspection, repair and remanufacture of pressure control equipment to original manufacturer specifications.

This includes to the latest API 16AR standard which specifies requirements for repair and remanufacture of drill through equipment. We support our customers in the field and in our workshops and regularly hear the challenges they face with support from other major pressure control equipment manufacturers.

Fairtex Group carries out complete disassembly and inspection in accordance with rigorous proprietary work instructions. Our engineering team review and provide recommendations. We then put our engineering knowledge to work carrying out detailed repairs including machining, welding, heat treatment and coatings. Repairs are carried out in house

BOP Systems

Fairtex Group provides the supply of BOP control systems and offers repair and recertification of BOP control systems, including offering API 16D COC through our technical partner OEM License.

A BOP control system unit is a high-pressure hydraulic power unit that provides pressurized hydraulic fluid on demand to operate various functions on BOP stacks, hydraulic-operated choke and kill line valves, and diverter system control functions. There are several high-pressure accumulator bottles that store nitrogen gas (in bladders) and hydraulic fluid or water under pressure for hydraulic-activated systems.

The primary purpose of this unit is to supply hydraulic power to the BOP stack to close/open the BOP stack for both normal operation and emergency. Stored hydraulic power in the system can provide hydraulic power to close BOPs in well control operation, meaning kick volume will be minimized. The accumulator should have sufficient volume to close/open all preventers, and accumulator pressure must be maintained at all times.

The four main components of the Koomey unit are the manifold, accumulators, pumping system, and fluid reservoir tank.
