With the increased focus on operators to limit their exposure to risks on health, safety and environmental matters, it is important that all areas of their operations are now part of a controlled process. One of these areas is the compliance of drilling and well control equipment. The drilling industry has developed its own specifications under the umbrella of API (American Petroleum Institute) and specific specifications have been drawn up that are applicable to land and offshore drilling installations.

Velosi can provide support for this essential service by Inspection to API, IADC, IMCA, IEEE & Modu standards. Our excellent reputation with major operators and drilling contractors demonstrates our high quality, comprehensive services. Typically for a lower cost than the overhead of maintaining an in-house inspection department. This has most certainly contributed substantially to our success within the industry. Velosi are often used as independent condition surveyors when rigs are sold or purchased, on and off hire surveys and at the beginning or conclusion of rig management contracts.

Rig owners engage Velosi to conduct yearly surveys on their facilities to ensure capital equipment is managed and operated at the required standard. Velosi is dedicated to providing your company with these services. Velosi believe we deliver a cost effective, professional service that is totally committed to maintaining the exacting standards of the oil & gas industry.
