Dimensional control is one of the best methods to apply in order to obtain accurate (+/- 0,5 mm accuracy) on measured objects. It allows us to control and correct very high construction demands to the fabrication yard further ensuring we deliver on our objective - "first time fit"
Key objectives:
- Reduction of man-hours in potentially hazardous areas and activities
- Guaranteed fit of pre-fabricated items - with a very little spill on piping and equipment
- Risk mitigation by reducing on-site man-hours
- Preventing change orders during installation phase
- Focus on budget/cost reducing the potential for cost and budget over-runs
Minimise shutdown duration - Minimise risk
Using established survey practices together with a suite of mathematical survey software developed in house, we guarantee sub-millimeter accuracy to ensure the first-time fit of all build components.”
Dimensional control
Objectives
- Provide a high quality, cost efficient product and service
- Assist fabrication yards in the construction and potential design changes
- By ensuring theoretical design remains according to design - eliminating on-site clashes
- Cost and time focus - spend few hours more onshore reducing time during installation and docking
Benefits
- Reduce the on-site activities by increasing the onshore activities
- Reduce potential re-work, thereby reducing installation time and docking time
- Minimise shutdown durations
- No unknown surprises - any and all challenges will have been located during design
Savings:
- No change orders when fabrication completed - no project overruns and add-ons
- Ideally, docking and project schedule to be reduced
- All additional or project re-work to be known in advance, thus no unknown growth or re-work
- Maximize crew rotation and competence as training can be done virtually
- Project schedule improved
- Deliverables can be assessed easily and are measurable
- Client KPI's to be assessed at given
- Risk mitigation
Typical applications
- AWP installations
- Scrubber installations
- Equipment modification
- Hull and top-side modifications
- HSEQ
- Project planning and estimations
