John Drury, Managing Director at Trelleborg’s offshore facility in Skelmersdale, states: “Building this impressive new multi-million-pound testing facility, ensures that we are able to provide our customers with the most reliable hyperbaric testing scenarios, guaranteeing peace of mind while ensuring quality, performance and efficiency in the product manufactured and delivered to them.
“With the new test equipment located immediately adjacent to our main manufacturing site, we will be able to take advantage of our on-site engineering support, which will enable us to provide greater flexibility to meet our customers’ testing and delivery schedules.”
Hyperbaric testing is the only way to effectively simulate deep water conditions and to confirm the reliability of product in deep subsea environments. It is the final opportunity for product assurance under hyperbaric conditions before delivery of the finished product for offshore installation.
Drury concludes: “Our new test equipment will ensure our solutions meet demanding customer requirements and stringent global standards in some of the harshest and most extreme operating conditions.”
