protect personnel, residents, the environment and to safeguard plant and manufacturing equipment. To ensure maximum
safety, Dräger offers a broad range of products and an extensive service program – including maintenance, servicing, training
and the supply of accessories, all perfectly suited and optimally adjusted to individual requirements.
Whether respiratory protection, gas detection and measuring technology, complete shutdown management, rental equipment,

Vertech
Vertech Offshore AS is a specialised Norwegian offshore service company whose main business is the replacement of flare
tips. The Company was established in April 2004 and was then a direct continuation of former offshore divisions in Statnett
and Eltel Networks.
Through more than 30 years with construction and maintenance work on powerlines in the Norwegian mountains,
competence and experience with respect to use of a helicopter in different installation work has been developed. In 1991,
the technique was taken offshore. This new technique; using specialised guide equipment and a helicopter, was used for the
first time in changing a flare tip. The flare tip was replaced faster and more effective than anyone had seen before. Today, we
have a long reference list of successfully completed projects. More than 200 flare tips have been replaced, all of them using
a helicopter. Most operations have taken place in the North Sea, but work has also been carried out in other parts of the world
including Canada, Tunisia, Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, South Africa and the Philippines.

United Labs
Refineries worldwide depend on United Laboratories International, LLC, creator of the Zyme-Flow Process, for the safe and
effective decontamination of their units. Our line of Zyme-Flow and Zyme-Ox® products are effective at the removal of hazardous
contaminants from refinery and petrochemical units and have no impact on wastewater facilities or the environment.
United Laboratories International’s patented Zyme-Flow separations technology reduces turnaround decontamination time
by as much as 24 hours and meets the most stringent environmental and personnel safety standards. In a single application,
the Zyme-Flow Process neutralizes sulfides (H2S) and pyrophorics, eliminates LEL’s and benzene and removes residual oil
and gas. ULI’s environmentally friendly Vapour-Phase® and Zyme-Flow Process applications will save time and expense by
removing contaminants to the flare while minimizing wastewater streams, eliminating the need for temporary storage tanks.
A Full-Service Resource
United Laboratories International is not just a chemical sales company. We engineer the project, walking every job wherever
possible, supply the chemical(s) and provide on-site technical support and on-site analysis expertise during the
decontamination process

Elliott Group
For over 100 years customers around the world have relied upon Elliott for excellence in design, manufacture and supply of
their rotating equipment as well as for maintenance, repairs and parts. We are truly a “one-stop” organisation for high quality
service, 24 hours a day, and seven days a week. The aim of every plant manager and maintenance engineer is to ensure
maximum reliability and life span for their rotating machinery. Elliott’s goal is to ensure the efficient, trouble free operation of
all critical turbo machinery, regardless of the origin of the manufacturer. Elliott Group staff – in Europe, Middle East, Africa,
and throughout the world – provide timely service excellence.
Changes in operating requirements do not necessarily require new equipment. Upgrades and modifications to bearing
designs, seals and controls or a complete rerating of a machine to meet new process requirements enhances performance
and extends equipment life.
