Rig Mechanical Support
Mechanical support for drilling and production equipment, on rig and in the yard.
Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical engineering support from first assessment through to a working, documented solution — sized against the loads, materials and access constraints the equipment actually operates under.
02 / OVERVIEW
What this service is for
Engineering starts with the operating envelope, not the catalogue. We establish the duty the equipment is under — loads, speeds, temperatures, media, duty cycle and access — and design against that before selecting a single component.
Where equipment is failing repeatedly, the engineering task is usually not the repair. It is finding the mechanism causing the failure and removing it. We work the problem back to root cause and design the fix around it.
03 / SCOPE
What is included
- Mechanical design and technical specification
- Failure investigation and root cause analysis
- Component sizing, selection and material review
- Modification and upgrade engineering
- As-built documentation and technical drawings

04 / APPROACH
How we run it
Approach
Designed against the duty
Every specification is written against a defined operating condition. Where the duty is unknown, we measure it before we design for it.
Deliverable
Documented, not verbal
You receive the technical basis for the solution — calculations, drawings and specification — not just a finished job.
05 / DELIVERY
The sequence this runs to
The depth changes with the size of the job. The sequence does not.
Assessment
Site attendance, condition survey and failure analysis. We establish what the equipment is actually doing before anyone proposes a fix.
Engineering
Technical solution defined against the operating envelope — loads, tolerances, materials and access constraints.
Planning
Method statement, risk assessment, parts, tooling and manning scheduled against your shutdown window.
Execution
Work carried out by mechanical technicians under a written procedure, with hold points recorded as they are passed.
Installation
Components installed to the written method — alignment, clearances and torque set against the drawing, with hold points signed as they are passed.
Commissioning
Controlled start-up and function checks under operating conditions, before the asset is declared ready.
Testing
Function testing, alignment verification and performance checks before the asset is handed back.
Handover
Documented completion — what was found, what was done, what was replaced, and what to watch.
06 / RELATED
Often taken together
Equipment Maintenance
Corrective and planned maintenance on rotating and static mechanical equipment.
Industrial Fabrication
Structural and pipework fabrication, welding and machining to drawing.
