Safe & Stable Scaffolding Solutions for Petrochemical Maintenance
Working at Heights—A Constant Challenge
Petrochemical equipment such as flare stacks, chimneys, and storage tanks requires regular maintenance. These tasks—like burner replacement, anti-corrosion coating, or crack repairs—are often carried out at great heights. Sucoot’s Ring Lock Scaffolding System provides workers with a safe, stable inspection platform, along with secure access routes for moving up and down.
Proven Stability at 142 Meters
In petrochemical plants, structures can rise dozens or even hundreds of meters. At such heights, wind speeds are stronger, wind pressure is greater, and vibration effects are amplified. Scaffolding must not only achieve exceptional stability but also be firmly anchored to the structure to resist these forces.
Sucoot successfully erected a 142-meter-high scaffolding tower for a flare stack maintenance project. Even when a typhoon hit during the process, the scaffolding remained steady and secure—allowing the project to be completed safely and on schedule. This achievement highlights the superior stability and reliability of Sucoot’s Ring Lock Scaffolding System, earning the trust of both owners and contractors for long-term cooperation.
Flexible Scaffolding for Curved Structures
Many facilities in petrochemical plants—such as cylindrical tanks, spherical vessels, and cooling towers—feature curved surfaces. Traditional scaffolding struggles to fit these shapes, but Sucoot’s Ring Lock Scaffolding System can be flexibly assembled to form wraparound platforms. This enables workers to stay close to the surface for inspections, welding, corrosion protection, and painting—greatly enhancing both efficiency and safety.
