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.
GATE Energy provided full commissioning and start-up services for subsea tieback offshore Gulf of Mexico. Provided subsea systems completion and umbilical commissioning planning services for subsea tieback offshore.

GATE Energy provided turnkey full commissioning, systems completion and start-up services for facility offshore GoM. Provided umbilical commissioning planning and execution for facility offshore Gulf of Mexico.
GATE partnered with Anadarko to execute full systems completion and commissioning services on the Lucius and Heidelberg Spars. Anadarko employed a “design one, build two” philosophy in development of these new-build, greenfield facilities. Though the Lucius project was a success in its own right, the extensive implementation of project lessons learned and carry-over of personnel led to GATE safely and successfully delivering the Heidelberg project three months ahead of schedule and significantly under budget.

Hydrostatic and Pneumatic pressure testing is an accepted system integrity assessment practice for all industrial operators. Scopes of work involving pressure testing require system knowledge and competent field execution in order to deliver safe, compliant system function.
Our Pneumatic Leak Testing services extend to commissioning, product evacuation, maintenance shutdown, leak testing, and general pigging operations.
Hydrostatic pressure testing remains an industry standard pre-commissioning and commissioning practice that is a heavily regulated requirement for all branches of the oil and gas industry.
