Cold Cutting & Beveling
We Crosstrain Our Technicians on an Expansive Tooling Inventory
For cases where safe and complete omission from flames are essential, field machining and cold cutting applications deliver safe, reliable results. In other schedules that require minimal space needs and on-site mechanical retrofitting, specific tooling must be applicable and easily deployable.
The critical-needs of field machining and cold cutting are routine challenges currently facing industrial operators. In order to meet this demand, BlueFin cross-trains our field technicians with an expansive inventory of tooling and knowledge and skills assessment training. Competency tracking and fostering an environment of maturity and growth enable our team leaders to develop best-in-class field technicians and surety of safe, reliable execution.

Project Experiences & Case Studies
GATE Energy provided full commissioning and start-up services for facility offshore Gulf of Mexico. Yard commissioning work completed in South Korea.
GATE Energy provided full commissioning and start-up services for facility offshore Gulf of Mexico. Work performed in Singapore and US. Full commissioning services including systems completion utilizing Omega PIMs. Yard phase commissioning in Singapore.
GATE Energy was responsible for pre-commissioning, commissioning, regulatory testing and vendor management for all Topsides systems of the King’s Quay FPU, both in South Korea and the United States / Gulf of Mexico. Viking, the engineering arm of GATE Energy, was contracted to assist with the development of the topsides standard operating procedures (SOPs).
GATE Energy provided umbilical commissioning planning and execution for subsea tieback to Bullwinkle facility offshore Gulf of Mexico.
GATE Energy provided full commissioning and start-up services offshore Israel. Due to various project engineering and construction delays on the Noble Energy Leviathan project, GATE was tasked with compressing seven months of onshore commissioning into only three months. GATE was able to quickly increase resources and personnel to mitigate a schedule impact and Leviathan topside left the fabrication yard one hundred percent commissioning complete for onshore scope. This greatly reduced the amount of potential offshore carry-over work and facilitated a successful offshore campaign to deliver the facility for initial start-up on time.

Inline isolation tools advance safe construction tasks related to welder safety, pressure testing, and weld seam integrity testing.
The traditional way of isolating a flowline, is to install numerous blind and skillet flanges, as well as utilizing air movers, to clear the flowline of harmful vapors. When utilizing air movers, you aren’t always able to control where the vapors go once released to the atmosphere. Wind direction plays a major part in this process.
