Pipeline Abandonments

We can abandon pipelines efficiently, cost effectively and with minimal disturbance to the environment.

Environmental Impact

With our state of the art design of the Internal Cutting Method we can go into all environmentally sensitive areas with minimal impact. We can do the work required with minimal manpower thus reducing our carbon and environmental footprint. Our system is fully portable and self-contained so there is no need for large bulky equipment tearing up the landscape. Abandonments can be done via the use of a truck, helicopter, or even horseback.

At E.C. Welding & Field Services we can do the full range of work from installs (ABSA certified) right through to abandonments and clean up. Our knowledgeable staff can and will provide your company with the best and most economical route to complete all your required tasks.

Cost Effectiveness

With this method of abandonment the costs can be reduced by up to two thirds of conventional methods. Other cost savings include zero locates, minimal manpower, very little to no reclamation costs and no post work monitoring of the area. The crew arrives, removes the riser, cleans up debris and then departs. THAT SIMPLE….THAT EASY!!!
