Increasing weather extremes present construction companies with new challenges. While periods of drought cause dust pollution and falling groundwater levels, short, intense bouts of rainfall are increasingly leading to the flooding of construction pits. Without reliable dewatering systems, companies risk delays and damage to machinery, materials and structures. Thanks... [Read More]

Hydrostatic testing, or “hydrotesting”, is a critical step in confirming the integrity of vessels that handle a variety of fluids — from water to crude oil. The irony is that the same water used to test for leaks or weak points also introduces the risk of corrosion into the vessel, potentially leading to further integrity issues or corrosion-related problems in future. What’s... [Read More]
