AVC is focused on creating long-term value, based on relatively simple logic. We believe that being part of something beyond our own boundaries and creating value for others is one of life’s most powerful motivators. It provides deep meaning to what we do. This motivation is at the heart of our long-term value creation process.
Corrosion is one of the most significant threats to asset integrity, safety, and profitability. Our Corrosion Engineering solutions are designed to identify, monitor, and mitigate corrosion across diverse operating environments. From material selection and protective coatings to advanced monitoring systems, we provide tailored strategies that extend asset life and reduce maintenance costs. We work in alignment with international standards and industry best practices to ensure safe, sustainable, and cost-effective operations. Whether dealing with offshore, onshore, or processing environments, our expertise helps you stay one step ahead of degradation risks. Protect your assets today to ensure they perform tomorrow

Focus your inspection efforts where they matter most. Our Risk Based Inspection (RBI) service combines risk assessment, failure probability, and consequence analysis to create smarter inspection strategies. By prioritising high-risk components and optimising inspection intervals, we help you reduce downtime, cut costs, and maintain compliance without compromising safety. Using API, NACE, and other international standards, we deliver RBI programmes that integrate seamlessly into your asset management system. The result is enhanced reliability, reduced unplanned failures, and better resource allocation. With RBI, you gain a proactive approach to asset integrity, ensuring inspections deliver maximum value at minimum cost.

Move beyond routine maintenance with our Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) solutions. We help organisations establish tailored maintenance strategies that prioritise reliability, safety, and cost-effectiveness. By analysing functions, failure modes, and operational risks, RCM enables maintenance to focus on what truly matters — keeping critical assets available and productive. Our structured approach reduces unnecessary interventions, prevents costly failures, and aligns maintenance with business objectives. From heavy industry to energy, RCM transforms maintenance from a cost centre into a value-adding function. The outcome is fewer surprises, longer asset life, and a stronger bottom line.
Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM)
When failures occur, identifying the true cause is essential to prevent recurrence. Our Root-Cause Analysis (RCA) service applies proven methodologies such as 5 Whys, fault tree analysis, and causal factor charting to uncover underlying issues. We go beyond symptoms to reveal systemic weaknesses, providing practical recommendations that strengthen performance and reliability. RCA not only addresses immediate problems but also drives cultural change by embedding a learning mindset within organisations. With our support, each failure becomes an opportunity to improve resilience, efficiency, and safety.

Ageing infrastructure does not have to mean reduced performance. Our Asset Life Extension (ALE) service helps you safely and sustainably prolong the operational life of your facilities and equipment. Using advanced engineering assessments, risk analysis, and lifecycle planning, we identify cost-effective strategies to maximise value without compromising safety or compliance. Whether dealing with offshore platforms, pipelines, or onshore plants, our experts ensure ageing assets continue to meet performance standards, regulatory obligations, and stakeholder expectations. With ALE, you gain the assurance that your assets remain reliable and productive, while deferring costly replacement or decommissioning. It’s about extending value — not risk.
Asset Life Extension (ALE)
As assets age, risks and costs increase — but so do opportunities for smarter management. Our Ageing Asset Assessment service delivers an in-depth review of the condition, risks, and remaining potential of your facilities. Combining inspection data, failure analysis, and performance modelling, we help you understand the true state of your assets and chart a path to safe, reliable operation. Whether planning life extension, modernisation, or phased retirement, we provide the evidence base to support sound decisions. Our assessments not only reduce risk and cost but also unlock opportunities to improve resilience and efficiency. Ageing does not mean obsolete — with the right strategy, it means renewed value.

Pipelines are lifelines for industry — and their integrity is critical. Our Pipeline Integrity Management System (PIMS) service delivers a structured, risk-based framework to ensure pipelines remain safe, reliable, and compliant. Covering inspection, monitoring, risk assessment, and emergency response, our solutions protect assets from threats such as corrosion, third-party damage, or fatigue. We align PIMS with international standards (API, ASME, DNV) and regulatory requirements, giving operators confidence in safe operations and long-term asset performance. With our expertise, you reduce risk, avoid costly failures, and protect both people and the environment.

Ensure the safety and longevity of your structures with our Structural Integrity Management System (SIMS). From offshore platforms to industrial facilities, we provide a systematic approach to monitoring, assessing, and maintaining structural performance. Our SIMS solutions integrate inspection data, risk-based methodologies, and lifecycle planning to detect vulnerabilities before they become failures. We deliver cost-effective strategies for ensuring compliance, safety, and operational efficiency. With our support, your structures achieve extended service life, reduced risk exposure, and reliable performance across their operating environments.

When assets show signs of damage or degradation, knowing whether they are still fit for service is crucial. Our Fitness for Service (FFS) assessments, following API 579/ASME standards, determine the safety and operability of equipment under current conditions. Through advanced modelling and analysis, we evaluate structural integrity, predict remaining life, and recommend the best path forward — whether repair, replacement, or continued operation. With FFS, you gain clear, evidence-based decisions that ensure safe, compliant, and cost-effective operations.
Fitness for Service & Modelling (FFS)

Ensure your assets operate safely, reliably, and efficiently with our Asset Integrity Assessment (AIM) solutions. We provide a comprehensive evaluation of equipment, structures, and processes to identify vulnerabilities, mitigate risks, and enhance long-term performance. Our methodology integrates advanced inspection techniques with international standards to deliver a clear picture of asset health and risk exposure. From critical facilities to large-scale industrial operations, AIM enables you to prioritise resources, reduce downtime, and extend asset life, all while meeting regulatory and safety requirements. Partnering with us ensures your organisation gains confidence in decision-making, knowing your assets are fit for purpose and safeguarded against unforeseen failures.
