Case Study: Zeeco Inc achieves safe, efficient flare tip replacement with Conbit

Zeeco Inc replaces flare tips offshore without crane vessels or helicopters with Conbit

The customer, Zeeco Inc., a leading manufacturer of combustion and environmental systems, required the replacement of its flare tips on offshore and onshore installations. The challenge was to perform this complex operation safely and efficiently without relying on traditional, costly methods like crane vessels or helicopters, particularly in remote or space-constrained environments. The vendor, Conbit, utilized its specialized mechanical handling methodology to address this need.

Conbit implemented its engineered mechanical handling solution, which used temporary lifting structures, rigging systems, and rope access techniques to replace the Zeeco flare tips. This approach allowed the work to be completed without major equipment or platform shutdowns. The result was a safe, efficient, and cost-effective operation that minimized disruption to the customer's ongoing operations. Conbit's proven methodology is effective for a wide range of major flare tip manufacturers.
