Oil and gas facility joint integrity solutions

Oil and gas is a major market segment for Hydratight, and we have a vast range of products and services which serve this huge industry and its many submarkets, from upstream to downstream, offshore to onshore, and topside to subsea.

From the construction of an asset to its final decommissioning, Hydratight provide joint integrity solutions at every stage of the lifecycle of an oil and gas facility.

Hydratight supplies some of the biggest organisations in the industry, from major oil and engineering companies to service providers and OEMs.

Bolting equipment sales and rental

Over the last 30 years Hydratight has developed a comprehensive range of mechanical products for fastening, connecting and lifting mechanical structures and pipelines. Our technology has been trusted to provide the accuracy, speed and safety demanded by our customers. Whether it is products such as torque and tension bolting equipment or skilled in-situ machining service, Hydratight is the trusted name for a job done right the first time.

Providing safe, accurate and durable tools which allow for maximised time savings during maintenance is of prime importance to us.

Morgrip pipe connector

Morgrip is a mechanical pipe connector used to replace the need for the welding of topside and subsea pipes in oil and gas, and petrochemical applications.

The Morgrip product has over 20 years of proven leak-free service history for permanent usage, and can be used for all sizes and pressure ratings of metal pipes, in critical and non-critical service.

Our innovative designs have produced a connection which is equivalent in strength and sealing performance to that of a welded joint. This can be reliably achieved without hotwork and far more safely, simply and quickly than a welded joint.

Customised bolting and machining solutions

Some problems demand unique solutions and that means a team of highly specialised engineers. Hydratight’s engineers have developed bespoke tools to solve some of the most demanding field, machining and bolting applications in the world.

Our engineers take pride in pioneering new products and because they’re involved in all aspects of our operation, including on-site work, they can draw on direct experience to deliver accurate, reliable and cost efficient designs every time.

This unique field experience also gives our design specialists the power to produce groundbreaking engineering prototypes: 24 of our creative solutions have achieved machining patents. Reliable, feature-rich, and user-friendly, our custom machinery designs are tested and retested in many different applications. Our engineers specialise in:
