EDECO is an experienced, independent service provider specialising in routine preventative maintenance programmes and non-routine maintenance, repair and refurbishment for a range of pressure control equipment such as wellheads, Christmas trees, valves, actuators and associated control and monitoring equipment including 'healthcare' and 'total valve management' programmes.

EDECO has over 35 years of experience in providing these specialist services to the oil and gas industry both offshore in the North Sea and Irish Sea and for onshore terminals, production facilities and pipelines in Western Europe.

These services are offered world-wide through various group companies and associates.

The services of EDECO are directed at maintaining the operational integrity of production and product transmission systems to minimise the overall operating costs by avoiding lost production and adverse safety and environmental implications resulting from unplanned shutdowns or failures of critical components of systems.

The services include:

• Category 1 : Routine on line or in situ preventative maintenance programmes for wellheads, Christmas trees and production valves, which can be carried out with minimal operational disruption on a regular routine basis either 'as required' or through managed programmes
  
  
• Category 2 : Non-routine maintenance and repair of components and complete assemblies, which can be carried out on location or in field or local base workshops
  
  
• Category 3 : Organisation, specification, supervision and management of major equipment refurbishment programmes or replacement if inspection of the component indicates severe damage or mechanical failure that cannot be readily repaired.

EDECO specialises in Category 1 and 2 services for all types and makes of equipment, but can also manage Category 3 cases on behalf of customers.

These services can be supported by the EDECO Production Integrity Management System (PIMS) database for long term contracts or alliance relationships.
