Lifting Equipment Maintenance & Inspection

When it comes to lifting equipment, safety cannot be compromised.
Regular maintenance, inspection and thorough examination are essential to identify wear, damage or defects before they become serious risks. At Southey, our trained and competent technicians have the practical and theoretical expertise to assess lifting equipment and identify weaknesses that could affect its safe and continued use.

Thorough examinations may be required:
• Before first use
• After assembly and relocation
• At regular intervals, typically every 6 or 12 months
• Following damage, prolonged periods out of service or major modifications

Inspections can include visual and functional checks, wear measurements, NDT, load testing and, where necessary, internal examination or partial disassembly.

A failure in lifting equipment can result in serious or fatal injuries. Proper inspection and maintenance help keep your people, equipment and operations safe.

Let Southey be your solution.

Contact our team to find out how we can support your lifting equipment maintenance and inspection requirements.

Toolbox Talk #48 EYE STRAIN & DISPLAY SCREEN EQUIPMENT

Give Your Eyes a Break!
Screens are part of our everyday life, from phones and tablets to computer monitors and control systems. But prolonged screen use can lead to eye strain, headaches, blurred vision, dry eyes and tiredness.

At Southey Contracting, whether you’re working using a device with screen or relaxing after hours watching content on a screen, protecting your health and wellbeing matters.

Remember the 20-20-20 rule: Every 20 minutes, look at something about 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds.

Also remember to:
- Adjust screen brightness and reduce glare
- Keep your screen at a comfortable distance
- Blink regularly and keep your eyes hydrated
- Take short, regular screen breaks
- Report persistent eye discomfort or vision problems

Healthy eyes help us stay focused, alert and safe.

Industrial Fireproofing: Protecting What Matters

In the oil, gas and petrochemical industries, flammable liquids and hazardous by-products create a constant need for reliable, well-executed fireproofing solutions.
A refinery fire can exceed 1,000°C, temperatures capable of severely compromising structural steel. That is why passive fire protection is not a once-off requirement. Ongoing assessment and maintenance are essential to protecting critical infrastructure.

Southey Contracting provides specialist industrial fireproofing solutions designed to protect:
• Structural steel from critical temperatures
• Electrical circuits and essential systems
• LPG tanks against fire-related explosion risks
• Steel and concrete structures in refineries and chemical plants

We use high-performance, certification-listed fireproofing systems, including cementitious coatings, intumescent coatings, lightweight vermiculite and reinforced plaster systems.

With experience across demanding projects, including Antarctic research facilities and offshore oil rigs, Southey has the specialist skills, equipment and expertise to deliver effective protection where it matters most.

Protect your assets. Protect your people. Protect your operations.
Let Southey be your fireproofing solution.

At Southey Contracting, responsible waste management is more than compliance, it’s a commitment to protecting our people, our clients, and the environment.

From offshore oil and gas operations to onshore industrial projects, we actively work to reduce waste at the source, promote reuse and recycling, ensure the safe handling of hazardous materials, and dispose of waste strictly in line with environmental legislation and industry best practices.

The Golden Rules of Waste Management:

Reduce: Minimize waste generation at the outset through precise chemical and material usage.
Reuse: Clean and repurpose materials whenever possible.
Recycle: Direct scrap metals, recovered oils, and recyclables to licensed recovery facilities.
Responsibly Dispose: Ensure all waste is properly segregated and managed in line with site Waste Management Plans.
Report: Immediately notify your Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) representative of any spills, improper dumping, or overflowing containment area.
Every team member plays a vital role in maintaining clean worksites, preventing pollution, and protecting the environments where we operate. Small actions, executed consistently, create a lasting impact.

Sustainable operations build a stronger future. Let us be Your Solution.
