GQS provides certified In-Service Inspectors to inspect pressure equipment, including boilers, pressure vessels, and pressure piping.
Workplace Regulations require that pressure equipment be regularly inspected and maintained in a safe operating condition. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure safe operation and maintenance of pressure equipment under the relevant countries’ jurisdiction standards. To ensure pressure equipment integrity, all pressure vessels and pressure-relieving devices shall be inspected at the intervals/frequencies per jurisdictional requirements. The appropriate inspection must provide the information necessary to determine that all the essential sections or components of the equipment are safe to operate until the next scheduled inspection. Regular inspections must be planned, implemented, evaluated, and comprehensively documented.
Additional to performing required inspections, GQS also guides clients to meet statutory compliance requirements with cost-effective systems. This information and guidance will satisfy the Occupational Health and Safety Authority and relevant Codes and Standards, as well as and more importantly, protecting the safety and health of persons in the workplace and public.
