Engineers work in a complex world, where no-one knows it all.

I aim to engineer clarity from confusion, so you can get on with what you know.

Pipeline integrity consultancy

Many pipeline operators don’t have much expertise in managing complex integrity issues, or have specific problems they have not dealt with before.

I can help you with:

• Pipeline defect assessments using international standards, including corrosion, dents, gouges, buckles, cracks, and geohazards.
• Detailed assessment of complex defects using finite element analysis, particularly defects which fall outside the applicability limits of normal methods.
• In-line inspection report processing.

Engineering software

All engineers rely on software. Spreadsheets can only get you so far: sometimes quality and efficiency can only be delivered with custom software.

I can help you with:

• Implementing detailed calculations
• Automating finite element model creation
• Analysing data
• Extending the capabilities of existing software
