Tanks are critical to many industrial businesses. If poorly managed, harmful substances can build up making the vessels dangerous and risking contamination of product.
EnerMech has a specialist fleet of equipment and personnel that can ensure the integrity and cleanliness of your tanks either before use, during operations and maintenance or as part of any decommissioning campaign.
EnerMech has built a solid reputation for equipment innovation, work ethic, reliability and customer care and our experienced personnel combined with our specialist chemical cleaning, water jetting and pumping equipment are widely acknowledged as the best and most efficient in the market. Our specialist equipment can minimise the need for man-entry ensuring employee safety and ensuring minimal impact on the environment.
Once the tank or vessel has been successfully cleaned and decontaminated, EnerMech can also provide concrete repair, welding, and NDT services to ensure that the equipment is restored to optimal working condition, getting our clients back to full operation in a safe, quick and efficient manner.
We can combine our expert jetting experience with our camera inspection and rope access solutions to increase the effectiveness of any cleaning operation.
Our field machining offering is built on the foundation of owning an extensive range of portable machining equipment. Coupled with skilled engineers and highly trained technicians, we provide cost-effective machining on-site at any location, at any time, providing efficiencies in logistics, time and labor.
Ideal for new construction projects, modifications, planned shutdowns and emergency repairs, our field personnel are experience in working in remote locations eliminating the need for you to ship equipment out for repair and significantly reducing both downtime and cost.
EnerMech has the ability to face flanges (including RF, RTJ and Grayloc or other quick clamp style flanges), line boring, drill or tap holes, cut pipe, mill and grind, providing customer support along the way.
Our team can offer full turnkey services which reduces the need for multiple subcontractors during your planned and unplanned shutdowns.
EnerMech has been awarded a pre-commissioning subcontract by Technip Oceania Pty Ltd, part of TechnipFMC in Australia, on the Shell Australia operated Prelude FLNG project.

The Automated Cool Down Skid (ACDS) is the first of its kind on the market and will be of interest to clients requiring the use of chilled nitrogen gas.
The skid can generate nitrogen gas at temperatures as low as -100oC in a safe manner by injecting liquid nitrogen into a stream of gaseous nitrogen, controlled by the skids PLC controller. A fully automated failsafe has been incorporated into the skid to protect against liquid nitrogen ingress or thermal shock to the client system.
Applications for the ACDS include, but are not limited to:
The ACDS was exhibited at the APPEA Conference in Brisbane in June where feedback was very positive.
EnerMech Americas has won awards for multiple projects worth an estimated $8m in Trinidad & Tobago, Venezuela, and Argentina.
In Trinidad & Tobago, the workscope on behalf of an international operator includes the hydrotesting and dewatering of approximately 10km of 26” pipe on a newly-built platform. Other work on the same project includes post-installation monitoring and testing and a topsides leak testing scope.
In Venezuela, EnerMech has been award a full pre-commissioning scope on flowlines and umbilicals as part of the Mariscal Sucre Project, while offshore Argentina we have been awarded the flowline and umbilical pre-commissioning on the ENAP Sipetrol PIAM Project.

Acquisition of EPS Group Australia and Americas, adding E&I capability to existing portfolio of services.
Deal Opens Up New Markets In Infrastructure, Power and Defence
Engineering services specialist EnerMech has made its first entry in to the electrical and instrumentation (E&I) sector with the acquisition of EPS Group in Australia and the Americas.
EPS Group employs 250 staff in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Darwin, Houston and Louisiana, and has annual revenues of more than A$ 85 million. The company specialises in E&I, hazardous area inspection, high voltage testing and mechanical services for oil and gas, metals, utility and infrastructure projects.
EPS Group has worked on six of the world’s largest LNG facilities and is contracted on some of Australia’s biggest infrastructure projects, including the A$ 2.1bn Sydney Light Rail project, major defence industry contracts and Australia’s largest road building programme, the A$ 16.8bn WestConnex motorway. Its US subsidiary is supporting the expansive LNG pre-commissioning market with projects including Sabine Pass and Freeport LNG.
The value of the deal was not disclosed but additional funding has been provided by EnerMech’s three banking partners, Bank of Scotland, HSBC and DNB, alongside long-standing equity partners Lime Rock Partners, in order to support the deal.
EPS Group managing director Paul Buckley and fellow directors John Cox and Brett McGrane will remain with the business and have become shareholders in the wider EnerMech Group.
EnerMech has 2,300 staff working across its global business and the EPS Group acquisition paves the way for providing a more focussed integrated services offering ideally suited to the downstream, infrastructure, offshore and defence industries.
Doug Duguid, EnerMech chief executive officer, said: “Adding a global E&I capability was essential to meet a demand from many of our customers who are looking for us to provide integrated commissioning and maintenance services.
“We have invested to organically develop our own E&I capability but by combining our expertise with EPS, this allows us to gain an immediate track-record and excellent reputation for service delivery in this area. The acquisition of EPS Group also widens our exposure to the infrastructure, power and defence markets.”
“This deal is a strong vote of confidence in our business by our three banking partners and Lime Rock, and all have provided additional funding to support the acquisition.”
About 30% of EPS Group’s business is in mechanical services, including speciality welding, which dovetails with EnerMech’s core business which includes cranes and lifting, valves, industrial services, hydraulics, and process, pipelines and umbilicals.
Paul Buckley said: “Our combined offering of skills, infrastructure and experience will strengthen our relationships with existing clients and create a wealth of new opportunities. Being part of the larger EnerMech Group, our business is now better positioned to take on larger projects not only in Australia and The Americas but across the globe.”
