BOLLARD LOAD TESTING INSPECTION

EIWAA Marine Services offers Bollard Pull Testing and Bollard Load Testing in Saudi Arabia as well as Non Destructive Testing Services at Major Ports of Saudi Arabia. EIWAA Marine Services can evaluate the bollard integrity inspection by bollard Pull Testing as well as bollard load testing inspection by Portable bollard testing assembly. By performing the periodic assessment and integrity inspection ,We can reduce the port accidents by mooring bollard load testing and SWL Verification. Recommended NDT Testing and certification of bollards after proof load testing helps to verify the integrity inspection of bollards. EIWAA Marine Services can perform the bollard load testing inspection and certification of capacities of UPTO 200 ton at Mooring directions. Types of Bollard includes A-B-C-D-E TYPE BOLLARDS Single/Double Bitt and T head type etc. Along with the certification of bollards, we can certify mooring bollard body, mooring cylinder, weld base as well as Anchor bolt at critical angle.

BOLLARD PULL TESTING IN SAUDI ARABIA

The term bollard pull testing inspection and certification covers the scope of measuring the tugboat engine horse power. By using Lifting accessories, connection is made between designated mooring bollards and pull testing performed by tugboat arrangements. EIWAA Marine are approved by major IACS Classification societies to perform the bollard pull testing and Certification at Major Ports of Saudi Arabia.

 

BOLLARD TO BOLLARD PULL TESTING 

Periodic Inspection, SWL/Proof Load testing of all types of Marine Mooring equipment, including different capacities of A-Type, B-Type, C Type, D & E Type Mooring equipment, may be subjected to load testing and certification. Inspection involves failure analysis of the mooring body, the mooring cylinder, the weld at the base of the mooring cylinder, and the anchor bolt, among other things. Both permanent and temporary cylinder that are used for loading out or shipping must undergo proof load testing and inspection.

  • Mooring bollard to bollard pull testing and certification shall be performed by  using portable test equipment (up to 200 Ton).
  • Anchoring/Mooring post load testing and certification in ports, shipyards, jetties, and yards by portable testing equipment
  • Tugboats, supply vessels, and other types of ships are used for  pull testing inspection  and certification of bollard in some cases.
  • In the building and shipbuilding applications, anchors shall be subject to pull testing inspection to evaluate their strength.

BOLLARD LOAD TESTING APPROVALS

All major IACS classification societies in Saudi Arabia have approved EIWAA Marine Services, which holds ISO/IEC 17020 accreditations and major port approvals. The purpose of mooring bollard load testing services is to ensure the safe structural integrity inspection of bollards using a portable test bed, either with or without the assistance of tugboat arrangements.

BOLLARD PULL TESTING AT MOORING DIRECTION

EIWAA Marine Services are approved by Major ports of Saudi Arabia and we can perform the bollard testing at Mooring direction by Portable Test bed. Mooring Bollard Test bed capacities are upto 200 tons and by self-generating load, we can assess the bollard capacity and integrity. A comprehensive inspection of the bollards and the area surrounding the quay wall is required as part of the periodic berth equipment inspection.  This type of bollard condition monitoring services covers the scope of NDT Inspection Services, SWL Capacity of bollard, Welding failure, Concrete inspection,Anchor bolt pull testing,  and deflection measurement Services etc. Along with Bollard load testing at mooring direction, we can perform the anchor bolt pull testing as well as concrete inspection of bollards by civil structure scanning services. Post Non Destructive Examination and NDE Evaluation by Eddy Current Testing, Magnetic Particle Test etc. Deflection measurements can be measured by remote laser measurement services as well as total station surveys.
