Your Challenges, Our Solutions

Aging Assets Risk Operational Failure

Element's comprehensive residual lifetime assessments and preventive maintenance strategies help you extend asset lifespan while maintaining optimal performance, potentially saving billions in replacement costs. Our systematic approach identifies potential weaknesses early, enabling you to plan and budget for necessary maintenance or replacements.

Unexpected Shutdowns Drain Resources

Our advanced non-destructive testing and inspection services detect potential failure points before they become critical. Regular monitoring and assessment target vessel inspection issues and corrosion under insulation – frequent causes of shutdowns. This helps you prevent costly unplanned downtime while optimizing your maintenance schedule.

Maintenance Planning Lacks Precision

Transform your maintenance strategy with our data-driven asset integrity approach. We help you develop targeted maintenance schedules based on actual asset condition and performance data, ensuring resources are allocated effectively while maximizing equipment reliability.

Critical Corrosion Threatens Safety

Our specialized corrosion testing and monitoring services identify threats before they compromise your operations. Using advanced metallurgical testing and finite element analysis, we provide actionable insights that help you protect your assets and maintain regulatory compliance.
