Pipeline solutions

At LR, we understand the significance of pipelines and the crucial role they play as a conduit across multiple phases of the lifecycle and transmission of oil and gas. It’s vital that flowlines, risers, subsea and onshore pipelines are designed properly, constructed appropriately, maintained according to regulations and to achieve maximum lifespan during operation then conscientiously decommissioned.

Failures and unnecessary repairs undoubtedly impact negatively on the environment, your production schedule, flow of materials, and project and operational costs, as pipeline experts, we help you mitigate this.

Our enviable suite of pipeline services and solutions promote conformance with standards, enhance productivity, identify and reduce risk associated with each phase of the pipeline lifecycle, reduce failures, unplanned shutdowns and costs and demonstrate regulatory compliance. Ultimately, we help you safeguard your revenue stream, whilst protecting the environment, lives, assets and your reputation. 

We ensure the success of the early stages of your project, delivering design appraisals, surveys, and cost analysis. To help you achieve reliable operations and safely extend the life of your pipeline and system, we provide flow assurance; integrity and risk assessments; analysis of the pipeline, physical environment, stakeholder and regulatory requirements.

Our pipeline experience is extensive, covering the entire lifecycle from concept to decommissioning. We’ve delivered projects in ultradeep-water, across deserts, mountain ranges, city and urban areas, environmentally sensitive areas and to some of the world’s largest refineries. Following our acquisition of SGC Engineering in 2015 we further enhanced our capability for onshore pipeline route development, civil survey & engineering. Geographic Information Systems and data management. As well as traditional survey methods we use innovative data gathering techniques and technology to guarantee accuracy and project success.
