The Pro-Surve Technical Services family of companies
Company Profile
Pro-Surve Technical Services together with subsidiaries ProSource Radiography and Walzel Technical Services are an integrated Inspection, Non-Destructive Examination, Reliability Engineering, Data Management and Project Controls service provider assisting clients across CapEx/OpEx budgeted projects processes. We concentrate on solutions provided by the integration of engineering and inspection.Value Adding Principles - Learned On Both Sides Of Your Fence
Asset integrity protection is a concern for all industries. Evaluating assets to identify and forecast any undesirable outcomes allows us to plan for and mitigate those unwanted results with the implementation of administrative and engineering controls.
During an asset’s life cycle you may see controls as procedures, engineering, inspection and testing, often the integration of them. With front end engineering, results from the proper inspection and testing lead to increased equipment reliability, plant availability and planned product output.
Every facility is unique and project needs vary widely. Rarely are they the same. Utilizing our reliability engineering knowledge and experience from “both sides of the fence” will help you develop or improve ongoing strategies that allow safe, reliable operations and the avoidance of costly failures.
