XPD8 Seals Condition Monitoring Contract

XPD8 Solutions, an asset integrity management specialist, informs it has secured a two-year contract with CNR International.

The agreement will see the Aberdeen-headquartered firm provide condition monitoring services to five CNR platforms in the North Sea. Having already provided cover to CNR International’s UKCS assets over the past eight years, this latest contract will take XPD8 to a decade working for the Canadian independent oil and natural gas production company.

Gordon Ellis, operations director at XPD8, said, “Over the past 12 months we have secured a great deal of international growth with contracts across West Africa and Asia Pacific.

“The downturn facing the oil and gas industry has made it more important than ever for operators to know their equipment is working at optimum levels. Effective condition monitoring is crucial in ensuring that production continues at the desired rate. In addition, the correct system will flag up where machinery is not running efficiently, helping to avoid breakdowns and the costs this ensues in downtime and repairs.”

Formed in 2003, XPD8 is a privately owned company which provides engineers for the asset management process. XPD8 has received ISO9001 accreditation for its quality management systems which ensures high standards throughout the business.
