With our “Real Value” programs we actively encourage recruitment and training for all people, no matter their nationality, religious beliefs or gender.
Our disciplined teams have the skill sets to accomplish operational excellence in each project mission, compliant to standards and above all expectations.
At AGODCO we may be very different people, but our common defining and differentiating factor is that we are proud to share the same values.
If you consider that with welding, it might take a four-year contract to complete a gathering network comprising of over 300 hook ups. Then, consider Stealth-Lock that performed its scope in 14 months! Substantial operational cost savings, not to mention the hydrocarbon production brought forward.
We have performed countless project recovery missions whereby conventional welding has failed to deliver pipelines to agreed project deadlines. How about 25-km of 12-inch carbon steel with 47 expansion loops and 12 major road crossings? Timeline - 16 days after two days of mobilization.
Many national economies and global Oil & Gas operators are dependent on accelerated production volumes in order to maintain margin over and above their fixed operating costs. Through its fast pipeline construction, Stealth-Lock is an important partner to increasing volume production ready for export.
With enhanced recovery and depleting reserves changing hydrocarbon production from sweet to sour service environments, Stealth-Lock reinstates integrity on new pipelines coated internally with Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE), providing a twenty-year solution to high sulphur and H2S environments.
Stealth-Lock is quite simply the fastest gathering network developer in the world. Reducing 4-year construction projects to one-year, leaving 20+ year pipeline systems as a result.
Our design and manufacturing center in Abu Dhabi fabricates everything from Catwalks to Rig-walking Systems and powerpacks to batch-mixers and conveyors.
Let us accelerate any pipeline project from 2-inch to 16-inch diameter carbon steel, schedule 20 to schedule 80 material. We can also work hand-in-hand with the main welding contractors.
Stealth-Lock is not just an Original Equipment Manufacturer. We can service client needs all the way through survey, engineering, procurement, materials handling, and construction to hookup.
The Stealth-Lock system works “hand-in-glove” with OD & ID, FBE coatings. Giving integrity longevity without the need for expensive circumferential sleeves to protect from welding burn.
As leader of a multi-vendor, multi-services project, we can provide our clients with 360° integrated services management. From the pipe mill to the field with all processes in-between.
Independently tested and validated primarily at STRESS Engineering in Houston Texas, the Stealth-Lock specimen joints are subjected to simulation and destructive testing compliant to ISO 21329 for mechanical connectors. The Stealth-Lock performance and results are outstanding in some cases, surpassing the values of welding.
Independently tested and validated primarily at STRESS Engineering in Houston Texas, the Stealth-Lock specimen joints are subjected to high-speed fatigue testing of full-scale pipe specimens to verify the fatigue resistance capabilities of the Stealth-Lock MIF joints during in-service operating conditions.
EIS tests were to validate the claim that Stealth-Lock MIF does not affect the compliant integrity of the FBE ID pipe coating. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) has been proven to be a powerful quantitatively and non-destructive technique in the understanding and characterization of protective coatings.
