Ovolifts
HAKI Access Solutions has partnered with Ovolifts, the global specialists in engineered lifting and touchpoint access solutions for industrial piping infrastructure. This collaboration gives our customers in the UK and the Nordics a turn-key offering for all pipe jacking and touch-point remedial scopes.
The highly innovative range of lifting jacks reduces the requirement for extensive scaffolding and cranes and offers our customers a faster way of keeping their assets on steam while enabling access to the touch points.
By seamlessly integrating Ovolifts’ innovative, engineered lifting systems with HAKI’s renowned expertise in advanced rope access and rigging, we are revolutionising how industrial facilities approach maintenance and repair.
Our customers will now benefit from significantly enhanced access to elevated and congested pipe racks and systems where conventional methods often prove impractical, prohibitively expensive or simply impossible. This partnership represents a commitment to delivering smarter, safer and more efficient solutions to the most challenging industrial environments.
The Power of Partnership
This collaboration delivers a seamless, integrated service specifically designed to address the most complex challenges inherent in modern industrial pipe infrastructure. For our clients in the UK and the Nordics, this means more than just a service; it's a single point of contact for sophisticated, end-to-end solutions. We cover everything from large-scale pipe jacking operations to intricate touch-point remediation, all delivered with unparalleled precision and care.
This powerful synergy allows us to unlock previously inaccessible areas, overcome spatial constraints and navigate the most congested pipe racks with ease. The result? Projects are completed not just efficiently, but effectively, ensuring optimal outcomes and minimal disruption.
Unrivalled Safety & Efficiency
At the very heart of the HAKI Access Solutions and Ovolifts partnership lies an unwavering commitment to both safety excellence and operational efficiency. Our combined approach fundamentally transforms project execution:
Reducing Risk & Reliance:
We significantly reduce the reliance on traditional, often cumbersome, access methods like extensive scaffolding and heavy lifting equipment such as large cranes. This not only minimises the footprint on site and reduces logistical complexities but also inherently lowers associated risks, all while rigorously maintaining the highest standards of safety and engineering controls.
Engineered Precision
All works undertaken by our partnership are executed under a meticulously planned and documented Safe System of Work. This comprehensive framework ensures every aspect of the project is considered, analysed, and controlled, including:
- Detailed Pipe Stress Analysis: Understanding the intricate forces and loads on your piping systems.
- Thorough Lift Plans: Bespoke plans for every single lift, detailing methodology, equipment, and personnel.
- Rigorous Risk Assessments: Proactively identifying and mitigating potential hazards.
- Comprehensive Method Statements: Clear, step-by-step procedures for every task.
- All Other Required Procedural Controls: Including stringent work at height protocols, confined space entry procedures, and permit-to-work systems.
Crucially, every critical lift is meticulously modelled using advanced engineering software to accurately predict deflections, stresses, and reaction loads. This vital pre-analysis is conducted before a single jack is engaged, ensuring absolute precision, predictability, and safety throughout the entire operation. This predictive capability eliminates guesswork, providing unparalleled confidence and control.
Maximising Uptime, Protecting Your Assets
One of the most significant advantages of our partnership is the ability to enable safer inspection, maintenance, and vital asset integrity activities on live or operational systems. We understand that unnecessary shutdowns lead to costly downtime and lost production.
Operating on Live Systems:
Ovolifts’ advanced solutions are specifically designed to allow controlled lifting and stabilisation of multiple pipelines simultaneously, even when they are active. This capability is critical for industries where operational continuity is paramount, allowing essential work to proceed without impacting production schedules.
Simultaneous Lifting for Seamless Operations:
By precisely lifting and supporting multiple lines at once, our solutions create clear, unobstructed access for critical inspection and remediation tasks. This eliminates the need for unnecessary shutdowns or extended downtime, thereby optimising operational continuity and significantly boosting your facility's productivity and profitability.
Your Trusted Partner for Critical Industrial Infrastructure
Together, HAKI Access Solutions and Ovolifts deliver a technically robust, safety-led access strategy that is engineered for superior performance. Our solutions are designed to dramatically improve efficiency, substantially reduce project risk and actively support proactive asset management across a wide range of industrial facilities, including petrochemical plants, power generation, oil & gas and manufacturing.
