Mechanical Cables and Their Uses Mechanical cables are attached to rigs and cranes and are primarily used for pulling movements  such as carrying and lifting heavy loads. They are used in various industries such as construction, shipping, mining & extraction, and other industrial applications. They play a major part in the industrial process and thus, the quality and maintenance of mechanical cables should never be compromised. What is Mechanical Cable Strain and Why is it Dangerous? Mechanical cables go through continuous and rigorous pull movements, which challenges the tensile capacity of the cable over extended periods of time. When that happens on a regular basis, the cables get damaged due to cable strain, which can be extremely dangerous on industrial sites. Unannounced cable breakages can cause heavy loads to plummet, causing expensive equipment and materials to get damaged. It can also cost the lives of any site operator or civilian underneath the heavy load. The accident

What is Process Instrumentation? Process instrumentation is the measuring, monitoring and analyzing of physical quantities  such as temperature, pressure and fluid flow rates. Types of process instrumentation equipment used by engineers, technicians and operators include sensors, detectors and monitoring systems. They are used in multiple industries such as manufacturing, mining, drilling oil and gas and other sectors. Manufacturing and engineering sites are hazardous and therefore, reliable process instruments for accurate readings and analyses are vital to ensure workspace safety and environmental protection is maintained. Importance of Process Instrumentation in Drilling Equipment From indication to analysis, accuracy is essential when facilitating drilling rigs. Precise measurements allow complete control over the entire process. Quality pressure monitoring products are integral to accurately monitor gas and steam pressure levels when drilling hundreds of feet into the ground. Mino

Oil and gas companies in Canada operate in complex environment that’s subject to national and international constraints. Fluctuating prices and strict regulation are among some of the challenges that affect operations. These have a trickle   down effect on maintenance and safety. Here are some common maintenance challenges and their solutions. Machinery maintenance Assets used in the oil and gas industry are complex, expensive, and require the expertise of specialists for repair and maintenance. Every piece of equipment used in oil drilling has very specific functions to perform in the drilling process, which means the maintenance tasks vary in complexity and duration. Canada also has several offshore oil installations that aren’t easily accessible. Ineffective maintenance can therefore cost a company millions of dollars, lead to accidents due to malfunctioning or failure, slow or halt production, produce poor quality goods, and waste work hours. As an oil drilling business, it’s essen
