ROPE ACCESS

 

Due  to  the  complex  design  of  plants  and  inaccessible  nature  of  offshore  rigs  and  platforms, inspections  are  often  required  in  areas  where  access  is  limited  or  non-existent  without  costly scaffolding or cranes.


petrohouse a team of IRATA qualified and experienced rope access technicians who, using techniques developed for climbing and caving, are able to carry out inspections safely at height or in difficult to access locations.


As part of our service, we provide a detailed risk assessment and method statement for each job, allowing us to carry out the work safely, quickly and effectively, minimizing client’s project costs.

Using rope access has a number of benefits over scaffolding or cranes, including:

  • Rope access is adaptable to almost any situation onshore and offshore,
  • Rope access is relatively fast to set up and dismantle, thus increasing the inspection time window,
  • When compared to scaffolding, rope access can offer significant savings to clients,
  • Using technicians trained in both inspection and rope access provided clients with a single point of contact

petrohouse provides continual training to our rope access personnel, in line with IRATA guidelines.
