Preparing for operation of a major oil and gas facility is a daunting task. Viking provides standard operating procedure (SOPs) generation, maintenance planning (CMMS, Spares), FMEA and RCA studies and Control System Tuning and HMI Screen Development.
At Viking, we take flow assurance engineering and modeling to operations. By using a systems engineering approach, Viking addresses the challenges from modeling to development of operational strategies to optimize flow assurance engineering in the production system. Flow assurance modeling is a key aspect of engineering design work, especially in deepwater oil and gas developments.
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.
Metallics and Non Metallics Materials Selection, Field Corrosion Studies, Fit-for Service Assessment, Integrity Assessments and Life Extension Engineering Assessments
Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Thermo-hydraulic Modeling, Corrosion and Erosion Modeling, Fracture Mechanics Modeling, Fatigue and Stress Analysis, Thermodynamic Modeling and Fit-for-Purpose Software Design
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.

Systems Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) is a systems approach to hazard analysis. It is based on the premise that accidents happen when we lose control. They are a control problem, not a failure problem.
The GATE approach to risk ranking makes risk assessment easier, more accurate and more repeatable by incorporating LOPA insights into the risk matrix approach.
HAZOP is the most commonly applied process hazard analysis (PHA) methodology in the processing industries. It is also the most flawed!
