GATE has expertise in facility design, planning and execution of commissioning and start-up operations, as well as being able to provide on-site technical support during well unloading and commissioning activities. This enables a rapid response capability to unexpected events and the ability to transfer learnings to our clients.

Topsides and substructure decommissioning capabilities.

Viking Engineering has performed many materials selection projects to help operating companies produce oil and gas safely and within budget.

Preparing for operation of a major oil and gas facility is a daunting task. Viking provides standard operating procedure (SOPs) generation, maintenance planning (CMMS, Spares), FMEA and RCA studies and Control System Tuning and HMI Screen Development. 

Operations Readiness systems developed late in a project and in silos can’t reach the potential of becoming the powerful tools that they were developed to be.

Viking uses an innovative phased approach. High level SOPs are developed early based on the PFDs. These are then matured to mid-level and finally to detailed procedures as the project matures.

The main difference between the GATE Stream-Based HAZOP and a typical HAZOP is that we define nodes based on ‘streams’.

We have a broad knowledge in generating plans for the initial startup of wells, subsea tie-backs and new platforms.

GATE follows a similar methodology to threat identification in risk assessment (e.g. FMEA), and analyses the relations between possible causes, and prevention and maintenance measures to highlight the cause(s) to be addressed.

Viking can help you design and implement a tailor-made Risk Based Inspection (RBI) Program.

Combining the engineering studies such as modeling, risk identification, etc. with field techniques for inspection, maintenance and surveillance, process efficiency and optimization, and rehabilition operations.

GATE can improvise, implement and manage a cost-effective plan for your asset to ensure safe and continuous operation.

With attention paid to the details of life-cycle, the coating process, and proper scope prioritization, we can get your coatings working for you.

Integrity engineering consulting starts at design stage where the corrosion control strategy is laid-out to reach the desired service life with minimum interruption.

Viking uses our systems engineering, materials and integrity management, commissioning and operating knowledge of onshore and offshore water injection systems around the globe to reach a solution that is optimized to the need of each Client and each asset.

Our engineering support extends to developing and coordinating corrosion testing and inhibitor qualification programs, to validate both material and chemical selection choices.

At Viking, we take flow assurance engineering and modeling to operations. By using a systems engineering approach, Viking addresses the challenges from modeling to development of operational strategies to optimize flow assurance engineering in the production system. Flow assurance modeling is a key aspect of engineering design work, especially in deepwater oil and gas developments.

At Viking, we take Flow Assurance modeling to operations by using a systems engineering standpoint addressing the challenges from modeling to development of operational strategies to optimize the production system.

At Viking, Flow Assurance engineering and modeling is designed to assist in project decision making.

Life extension is a comprehensive review of a facility or vessel to determine if improvements are required, and what is needed to extend the operational life.
