CRANE INSPECTION
We can apply our extensive technical expertise to the routine inspection and maintenance of a wide range of lifting equipment, including :
- Cranes, hoists and lifting beams
- Wire ropes
- Slings
- Chains
- Hooks, bolts and shackles
The inspection process is rigorous and ensures the continued structural integrity, safety and operational efficiency of all equipment. Regular expert inspections are essential to the effective operation of high value capital equipment, especially in testing environmental conditions. The outcomes of our inspection service are presented in easily assimilated report form, accompanied by appropriate certification. They are typically used to inform routine maintenance, fitness for purpose and long term capital investment planning.
We recommend that regular inspection is built into any asset integrity management process, and Biglift can provide such services on a long term contract basis. This ensures continuity and consistency of service, and enables the client to plan the maintenance and replacement of operationally important items. Biglift’s strong working relationships with leading equipment manufacturers and suppliers place us in an excellent position to advise and support the procurement of new and replacement items, thus ensuring operational continuity and safe working.
Biglift can also provide specialist training in inspection procedures to support the development of an ‘in-house’ capability ; such courses are fully certificated and can be adapted to suit the needs of each client. Regular refresher courses are also offered to ensure that key staff can keep pace with major technical developments whilst maintaining the validity of their qualifications.
We have worldwide experience of delivering inspection services to major clients in a variety of industrial sectors including construction, oil and gas (especially offshore), alternative energy and public infrastructure.
