Oil, Gas & Petrochemical .

Industrial Trades for Live Plant and Planned Shutdowns.

Oil, Gas & Petrochemical

Oil, gas and petrochemical facilities demand a level of planning, discipline and compliance from their contractors that goes well beyond most industrial environments.

Live process plant, hazardous atmospheres, stringent PTW regimes and corrosion management on assets operating in aggressive environments all create a project context where getting the industrial trades right first time is not optional. 

Think Industrial Services provides scaffolding, anti-corrosion coatings and specialist industrial trades to oil, gas and petrochemical facilities across the UK, operating on live sites and planned shutdown programmes with the operational discipline these environments require. 


What We Deliver 

We combine scaffolding, C4 and C5 anti-corrosion coatings, structural steelwork maintenance and permanent access under one subcontract. Planned around live plant operations and delivered to shutdown programme.

Scaffolding

Tube and fitting along with systems scaffolding for plant maintenance and shutdown access.

Anti-corrosion coating systems

Blast cleaning, zinc primer, intermediate and finish coats to specified systems.

Structural steelwork maintenance coatings

Touch-in, overcoat and full system replacement.

Tank and vessel external coating

Surface preparation and multi-coat application.

Permanent access

Fixed ladders, walkways and platforms for ongoing maintenance access.

Full documentation

DFT records, adhesion test results, hold point sign-offs .

Why us

Choose us for live plant and planned shutdown programmes that need scaffolding and coatings delivered with the operational discipline.

The Challenges We Understand

F.A.Q’s

Yes. We understand the pre-qualification requirements that operators place on their supply chain and we work to ensure we’re approved and ready before a programme begins. Arriving pre-qualified with the right accreditations, documentation and safety management processes in place is a baseline expectation in this sector, we treat it as one.

All works on live plant are planned and sequenced to avoid interrupting process or creating additional hazard. We operate within PTW regimes, including hot work, confined space adjacent and ATEX zone requirements and manage simultaneous operations as part of our standard site methodology, not as an exception.

Yes. Shutdown window pressure is one of the defining challenges in this sector and we plan mobilisation, execution and demobilisation to the fixed duration from the outset. Scaffolding, coatings and permanent access are coordinated as a single package, which removes the sequencing risk that comes with managing multiple subcontractors against the same deadline.

Full ITP documentation as standard, DFT records, adhesion test results, hold point sign-offs and a complete handover pack. Coating inspection records are non-negotiable on oil, gas and petrochemical assets and our documentation process is built around operator requirements, not assembled retrospectively at handover.
