Hydratight Limited

In its continuous efforts to improve service, joint integrity specialist Hydratight announces the appointment of a global operations and supply chain leader. Vincent Parmentier has direct responsibility for all three global regions, and work closely with the regional business leaders. His role will be to oversee and create global standards, key performance indicators, and evaluate system to deliver one global standard.

Hydratight found an innovative solution to a tricky repair for Statoil, by using a MORGRIP connector to repair a 6in super duplex pipe located within the constrained space of a subsea manifold, 340m under the surface of the North Sea.

Hydratight responds to the increasing world pressure for higher jointing standards with an enhanced version of its market leading load calculation software, Informate, and a powerful, highly-flexible new joint management system, iDMS.

DL RICCI-brand machining tools from Hydratight have always been leading edge; now they have leading-edge hydraulic power units to go with them.

International bolting and joint integrity services company Hydratight has appointed Juergen Schimohr as account manager responsible for promoting the company’s wind product range.

Paul Hughes joins the company as connectors product manager, particularly responsible for the company’s highly-respected Morgrip mechanical pipe connectors.
