API Source Inspector Rotating Equipment (SIRE)

In today's increasingly challenging oil, gas, and chemical industry, inspecting rotating equipment isn't a luxury anymore. It's a necessity. If you want to maximize the quality of the equipment you need repaired or purchased, then you should know everything about the American Petroleum Institute (API) standards from the inside out.

You won't even have to put a lot of effort into learning about them, as we've got you covered. Having served many oil, gas, chemical, and energy companies worldwide, we've gathered extensive knowledge regarding rotating equipment inspections.

Apart from assisting you with engineering support and consultation, you can also count on us to help you understand the latest API standards and how to comply with them.

The job of a source inspector is to act as a field representative for the end user or purchaser.
