Zenith Structural Access Solutions Limited has successfully completed a major flare stack refurbishment in Flotta, United Kingdom.

Zenith Structural Access Solutions Limited was awarded a contract by AMNI International Petroleum Development Company Limited to design and install a temporary lifting frame. This frame facilitated the replacement of a 907kgs flare tip located on a FPSO offshore in Nigeria. We completed the design, supply, and installation of the temporary lifting frame in-house. Our safe method results in significant cost savings when compared with expensive helicopters and barge cranes.

Building on an existing relationship with ExxonMobil, Zenith were appointed to provide an experienced multi-disciplinary team to deliver safe, technical, innovative access solutions during the construction of Europe’s largest ground flare. The complexities of working within a live petrochemical plant required innovative, technical solutions and close collaboration with the wider project team.
