Aberdeen-based ICR Group, a global leader in maintenance and integrity solutions, together with its regional partners, has secured US$3.5mn (£2.67m) in contracts in the Middle East over the past four months, due to demand for its Technowrap composite repair technology

Technowrap can be used to repair a wide range of infrastructure, including pipelines, pipework, tanks, vessels and structural components, both onshore and offshore. Technowrap provides a long-term alternative to traditional steel replacement, often with a design life of up to 20 years. The quick application can significantly reduce downtime, leading to cost savings, while offering up to a 66% reduction in carbon emissions. Recent projects in the Middle East have included work on offshore and onshore installations for operators and engineering contractors repairing pipelines, pressure systems and structures.

ICR also offers non-destructive composite inspection technique called INSONO, and Quickflange, permanent flange-to-pipe connectors, for use where traditional welding solutions are impractical due to hot work constraints or time limitations.

ICR’s operations are supported by its Abu Dhabi office and strategic partner agreements, enabling local service delivery of the product range across the Middle East.

Jim Beveridge, CEO of ICR, said, “Our recent success in the Middle East is a testament to the expertise of our team and local partners. The proven reliability of our products and services positions ICR to enhance operational efficiency and protect critical infrastructure, all while minimising environmental impact. I am confident in our ongoing success in the region as demand continues to grow.”

Aftab Shaikh, business development manager at ICR, based in Abu Dhabi, added, “The suite of ICR products continue to generate significant interest due to their ability to support production uptime. Our local partners help us to leverage regional expertise and market knowledge, ensuring tailored solutions and faster service delivery each time.”

ICR will be exhibiting at ADIPEC from 4-7 November, stand 6210.
