What We Do
Services, Products, Proprietary Equipment & Training
▸ Engineering Services
In contrast to other consulting and engineering firms, GATE's philosophy is based on taking an operators prospective to a problem and not limiting ourselves to a specific discipline.
▸ Integrated Fracturing & Stimulation
Viking has the expertise to help operators better understand past well failures and frac performance by working together to develop improved frac designs and execution.
Casing & Tubular Design
Well Planning & Configuration, Tubular Design, Evaluation of Connections, WELLCAT/StressCheck/TDAS, Casing & Tubular Design Training Courses, Mill Qualification & Surveillance
Frac & Re-Frac Modeling & Design
Viking Engineering provides operators with a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to hydraulic fracturing and stimulation-related operations. From fracture design to execution and post-treatment analysis, Viking’s approach offers the operator technically supported decisions when conducting fracturing and stimulation operations.
Frac Field Planning & QA/QC
Viking Engineering provides operators with a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to hydraulic fracturing and stimulation-related operations. From fracture design to execution and post-treatment analysis, Viking’s approach offers the operator technically supported decisions when conducting fracturing and stimulation operations.
Completions Operations
Viking Engineering provides onsite support for all fracturing and stimulation operations. The onsite Viking team ensures that operations are executed as it was designed and planned while making sure to achieve the project objectives. This gives our clients peace of mind throughout the process.
▸ Geothermal Engineering Services
Surface operational temperatures >302°F (150°C) makes well design, materials and equipment selection critical for Geothermal wells. Viking Engineering’s knowledge and expertise helps to deliver your required solutions.
▸ Well Construction & Design
Provides fit-for-service evaluations, testing and analysis for evaluating complex downhole failures, pipeline failure investigations and forensic services for midstream and downstream clients and also provides services to the renewable energy sector.
Material Selection
Viking Engineering has performed many materials selection projects to help operating companies produce oil and gas safely and within budget.
A-Annulus Operating Envelope (AOE)™
The Viking team merges the mechanical and dynamic thermal-hydraulic aspects to bring a true systems approach to annulus pressure management.
Completions & Downhole Equipment
Complete Lifecycle Stress Analysis, Completion Design, Downhole Equipment Evaluation
▸ Asset Integrity Services
Viking’s Materials and Corrosion Team is involved with detailed material selection and qualification support with the goal of ensuring the selection of fit for service materials and their appropriate manufacture and fabrication.
Failure Analysis & Failure Investigation
Failure analysis is a critical process in determining the physical root causes of problems. The process is complex, draws upon many different technical disciplines, and uses a variety of observation, inspection, and laboratory techniques
QA/TPI Surveillance Services
The Viking QA Team provides experienced and competent QA & TPI Inspectors around the globe, providing mill, post mill and vendor surveillance on critical casing and/or tubing strings, drill pipe, line pipe, downhole engineered equipment and accessory items.
Root Cause Analysis
GATE follows a similar methodology to threat identification in risk assessment (e.g. FMEA), and analyses the relations between possible causes, and prevention and maintenance measures to highlight the cause(s) to be addressed.
▸ Engineering Lab Services
Provides fit-for-service evaluations, testing and analysis for evaluating complex downhole failures, pipeline failure investigations and forensic services for midstream and downstream clients and also provides services to the renewable energy sector.
Metallurgical Laboratory Testing Services
Mechanical Testing, Tensile Testing, Harness Testing, Materials Chemical Analysis, Metallographic Evaluations, Fracture surface Evaluations, Microstructural Characterization, and Customized Testing
Materials, Corrosion & Engineering Mechanics
Metallics and Non Metallics Materials Selection, Field Corrosion Studies, Fit-for Service Assessment, Integrity Assessments and Life Extension Engineering Assessments
Failure Analysis Lab Services
Forensic Engineering, Field Investigation, Legal support / Expert Witness, Root Cause analysis, Sample Collection, Proprietary Failures Database and Fit-for Purpose Evaluations
▸ Materials & Corrosion
The Corrosion and Materials Team for oil and gas developments and water and gas injection systems forms one of Viking’s core oil and gas engineering services.
