    Boiler Declink at Suez 🏭 Sutro Group successfully completed the scheduled disconnection of the industrial boiler system at Suez facility for comprehensive maintenance operations. The declink procedure enabled thorough cleaning of critical components without compromising system integrity. Key outcomes: ✅Heat transfer surfaces were restored to optimal efficiency. ✅Scale accumulation was completely removed from all critical components. ✅Safety mechanisms were verified and recertified to compliance standards. ✅Regulatory requirements were maintained throughout the procedure. The maintenance was completed with reduced operational downtime beyond the scheduled maintenance window. A comprehensive technical assessment report is available for all stakeholders.

  • 🔎 Precision in every inspection. We recently completed a Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) inside a Nickel Decomposition unit, ensuring structural integrity and defect detection in a challenging environment. What is MPI? Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) is a powerful non-destructive testing method that uses magnetic fields and fine ferromagnetic particles to detect surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials. When a magnetic field is applied, these particles gather at defect locations, making even microscopic cracks visible to inspectors. Why it matters: ✅ Detects critical defects invisible to the naked eye ✅ Prevents costly failures and unplanned downtime ✅ Extends asset lifespan through early detection ✅ Enables targeted maintenance, optimizing resources ✅ Ensures regulatory compliance and operational safet Using our specialist access and non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques, we delivered a thorough and efficient inspection with minimal disruption to operations. At Sutro Group, we provide innovative access and inspection solutions across the UK and Europe, helping clients maintain complete asset integrity. Ready to enhance your operations?
