Acuren Safely Completed a Flare Tip Replacement & Coatings Project in Ohio
The four-week project incorporated Acuren’s Mechanical, Engineering, and Rope Access Industrial Services to replace an existing flare tip at a refinery, including weld repairs and coatings.
The project utilized rope access to remove the existing flare tip and install a new one, weld repairs on decking, hand tool cleaning of structure, and removal and collection of lead paint, followed with primer, mid-coat, and top coat application.
Acuren completed the job in fraction of the time and at 40% of the cost.
Traditionally, scaffolding is used to replace the flare tip. The time to erect scaffolding, replace the flare tip, and properly coat the structure usually exceeds that of a 30-day turnaround. Acuren was able to replace the flare tip in three days allowing time for welding repairs, structure cleaning/lead abatement, and coatings. Costs estimates for scaffolding were estimated at $800,000. Acuren was able to perform the project including labor, materials, and equipment for under what it would cost for the scaffolding alone saving the client both time and expense.
