Proserv offers a complete aftermarket service for our clients’ assets ranging from planned maintenance programmes through to refurbishment projects, equipment repair and certification. Once used parts have been removed from service, we can either repair or upgrade these parts then re-machine them back to their original state and exact specification for final testing and service.

We can manage projects of any size ranging from single spare parts through to the most complex assemblies across a variety of different industry sectors. As our after-market services are all under one roof, we have the capability and capacity to reliably process work within tight turnarounds, helping to minimise project downtime.

Refurbishment and upgrade

Proserv has extensive experience in providing testing services for client equipment. Tests can be conducted to national, international or industry standards or to the client’s own enhanced test specification. Using our purpose-built test facilities we can undertake various types of testing including hydrostatic testing, gas testing, high pressure testing, site integration testing (SITs) and factory acceptance testing (FATs).

Our test pits can accommodate large items and this allows us to undertake testing of larger frames or

skids that contain pressure containing components such as valves or pipework.

All test pits are covered by high capacity overhead cranes. All tests are conducted using purpose-built facilities that have been designed such that testing can be conducted safely with remote monitoring facilities.

Aftermarket RepairCase Study Christmas Tree Spool Body

Client: OEMLocation: Troll Field, Norway Equipment: Christmas tree spool

Background

The client required a solution that would allow them to refurbish Christmas tree spools that had been in operation for over 20 years in the Troll Field, Norway. Due to the age of the equipment, several repairs, material certification and quality assurance documentation was required as part of the overall work scope.

Project Description

The overall age of the equipment was a challenge faced by the team and various procedures were required to carry out the material certification and quality assurance documentation.

The collaboration between Proserv and the client was key to the success of the project, which ultimately provided significant cost savings and reduced lead times by choosing a refurbishment solution of existing equipment over new component parts.

Scope

Proserv worked with the client to first understand the original material composition as this

would aid in the repair process. In order to achieve this, sacrificial test pieces trepanned from the base material were taken and additional outlets were machined that could later be capped off. A Positive Material Identification (PMI) was taken of the cores and the results from further mechanical testing.

This provided the necessary details to make revision changes to existing weld procedure specifications and procedure qualification records (WPS & PQR). These were then simulated during the second and third stress relieves.

The repair welds were witnessed by DNV and undertaken by Proserv and NS 477 welding inspectors under strict ISO 3834 standards. Checks to the heat affected zones (HAV) and the hardness were also collected for analysis.

Conclusion

As a result of the technological solutions provided by Proserv, our client has further prolonged the life of their assets while bringing the well back into full production. The client is also

looking to roll out the procedure for all tree spools within the Troll Field.
