RANCHO CORDOVA, CA — Tri Tool Inc. recently introduced a new high production counterboring service for the offshore market. To meet the demand for deep counterbore machining of steel catenary risers and critical pipeline needs in the Gulf of Mexico, Tri Tool has designed and manufactured a new high speed system with safety as a top priority. Tri Tool Services will operate the equipment, which will be mobilized for on-site service from the company’s new Houston location.
“Safety was paramount in the design of this system and eliminating the need for any manual pipe handling significantly reduces risk,” said Mark Marshall, vice president of Engineering, Operations and Production. “Our engineers, as usual, designed to our highest quality standards and developed patentable features that will ensure that this service will produce the most consistent and precise results.”
The new CNC High Speed Deep Counterbore Service features the latest, patent pending machining technology. Tri Tool delivers deep counterbore precision, rapid cycle times and superior surface finishes, using the safest pipe handling system available. Safety is optimized in this system with incoming and outgoing mechanized pipe handling racks that require no manual pipe handling. Cycle times are optimized with automated pipe end alignment, rapid machining by dual, seven-axis CNC machines equipped with real time monitoring and the latest in safety features. The equipment will be manned by Tri Tool’s experienced and highly skilled technicians, who are certified in its operation.
