Gas Processing & Midstream Infrastructure

Structural integrity, modification, and life-extension engineering for gas plants, compressor stations, LNG/LPG terminals, and pipeline gathering systems.

Back to Industries

We provide engineering support for the structural integrity, modification, and life-extension of gas processing and midstream infrastructure. Our services support operators managing critical facilities such as gas plants, compressor stations, LNG and LPG terminals, and pipeline gathering systems, where structural reliability, corrosion management, and safe integration of new equipment are essential to maintaining uninterrupted operations.

Our experience supports both new developments and brownfield upgrades, helping operators assess existing infrastructure, implement safe modifications, and extend the service life of critical assets.

Typical Scope of Services

Structural assessment of gas processing facilities, including pipe racks, equipment supports, compressor foundations, and flare structures

Integrity assessment of LPG and LNG infrastructure, including storage bullets, spheres, loading facilities, and associated structural supports

Structural analysis of pipe racks and process modules to verify load capacity following equipment additions, debottlenecking, or plant upgrades

Engineering support for compressor stations and metering facilities, including equipment support design and vibration assessment

Corrosion and deterioration assessment of structural steel exposed to aggressive industrial environments

Brownfield modification engineering, supporting safe installation of new process equipment, pipelines, and utilities within existing facilities

Structural integrity review of flare stacks, towers, and elevated structures subjected to thermal loads, vibration, and wind loading

Risk-based inspection planning for structural components within gas plants and terminals to optimize maintenance programs

Life-extension studies for aging midstream infrastructure, supporting operators in maintaining safe operation of critical assets
