In contrast to other consulting and engineering firms, GATE's philosophy is based on taking an operators prospective to a problem and not limiting ourselves to a specific discipline.

Viking has the expertise to help operators better understand past well failures and frac performance by working together to develop improved frac designs and execution.

Viking Engineering provides onsite support for all fracturing and stimulation operations. The onsite Viking team ensures that operations are executed as it was designed and planned while making sure to achieve the project objectives. This gives our clients peace of mind throughout the process.

Viking Engineering provides operators with a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to hydraulic fracturing and stimulation-related operations. From fracture design to execution and post-treatment analysis, Viking’s approach offers the operator technically supported decisions when conducting fracturing and stimulation operations.

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

The Viking team merges the mechanical and dynamic thermal-hydraulic aspects to bring a true systems approach to annulus pressure management.

Complete Lifecycle Stress Analysis, Completion Design, Downhole Equipment Evaluation

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.
