Specialized offshore testing solutions

Independent qualification across the critical equipment categories the offshore industry depends on.

Subsea Equipment Validation

Comprehensive testing of riser systems, BOPs, and subsea connections under simulated deep-water conditions, validating performance against the extreme conditions of the seabed.

Completions Testing

Comprehensive validation of offshore completion tools, including packers, wellheads, safety valves, sliding sleeves, and subs — ensuring reliability from installation through production.

Connections Testing

Critical qualification of premium connections for offshore applications, validating sealing integrity and strength under deep-water, high-pressure, and other extreme conditions.

HPHT Testing

Rigorous qualification of equipment for high-pressure, high-temperature offshore service, simulating the extreme downhole conditions of deepwater operations up to 60,000 PSI.

Fatigue Testing

Accelerated lifecycle testing using resonant and rotary fatigue systems to confirm long-term durability of critical offshore components subject to cyclic loading and vibration.
