Flow remediation experts Pipetech, a Denholm Environmental subsidiary, has cemented its credentials as a leading authority of specialist remediation cleaning services to the energy sector by completing nearly £3M worth of work for a multinational oil and gas operator.
This initial two-stage contract is part of a planned six-yearly maintenance campaign and saw Pipetech mobilise a team of 25 people to carry out inspection and cleaning of over 1.5km of pipework at one of the UK’s leading refineries. The original scope of work commenced in October 2024 before Pipetech received confirmation of continued work in Q2 this year, following the success of the initial project.
For the project, Pipetech utilised its groundbreaking Aqua Milling® technology, which has consistently proven to remove the toughest of scales. Addressing contamination and disruption within the pipework system, Pipetech, via Aqua Milling®, tackled the oil-based debris that was responsible for blockages, cleaning the system back to a bare metal finish.
Additionally, Aqua Milling’s® ability to travel long distances from single-entry points and navigate complex bends meant the client didn’t require as many intervention resources.
Discussing the significance of the project, Pipetech Operations Director Leonard Hamill commented: “The success of the initial stages of this contract demonstrates our commitment to pioneering innovative solutions to elevate our customers’ industrial cleaning operations. We take immense pride in the fact that no other contractor or technology has achieved the level of cleanliness that Pipetech consistently delivers. Aqua Milling® continues to be the method of choice for complex industrial cleaning challenges.”
“The team of 25 mobilised for this contract was a definitive representation of our technology’s capabilities. Their work on this project has helped solidify our reputation across the energy sector while reinforcing our obligation to provide industry-leading remediation cleaning expertise. We look forward to continuing our collaborations with the client and identifying new opportunities to strengthen our relationship.”
