Project management

We supply professional engineers on a project basis for:

• Supervision: supervise linking and/or uncoupling of both floating rubber hoses and steel land pipes. This in order to limit handling damage.
• The drafting of survey reports. The survey report provides a damage overview, that is added digitally to our "Hose management system". Attached to this report is a repair expense overview.
• When using the Flange Straightening Machine (FSM) and/or Dent Removal Unit a survey report can be provided. This report includes the length, thickness and cross measurements on both sides of the steel pipe.

Outsourcing

Outsourcing the maintenance of dredging hoses will maintain an agreed quality for all your hoses based on a long term maintenance or outsourcing arrangement.
