Frac Tanks

Monday, November 3rd, 2014

Syngineering has been working on a range of new and innovative tanks for the oil and gas industry. Our tanks are designed in-house at Syngineering’s head office in Banyo, Queensland. They are fully ADR compliant, and each tank is signed off by an RPEQ qualified professional engineer – meaning you don’t have to worry about the quality of the tank, we can give you all of the paperwork you need to get your show on the road faster.

The tank designs we offer include:

  1. Frac Tanks
  2. Frac Storage Tanks
  3. Frac Storage or Open Top Storage Tanks with Handrails
  4. Frac Storage or Open Top Frac Flow Back Tanks including Diffuser Tanks

Our team at Syngineering provides the project management expertise to ensure that your tanks are supplied when they’re promised. We utilise project quality planning during the design and manufacture of the tanks, and we provide inspection services during manufacture so you avoid any headaches down the line.

Are you ready for AS1657-2013?

Wednesday, June 4th, 2014

As you may know, there has been a revision on AS1657, bringing it to AS1657-2013. There are an extensive list of updates to AS1657-2013, and Syngineering is ready to help you through the process of getting your walkway, stairway or ladder designed, constructed and installed.

Fixed Ladder design has been updated, which will result in improved safety for users in terms of rung spacing, strength of the ladder and improved supports, among many other changes. Labels are now also mandatory, which requires indentification of the designer, fabricator, installer and certifier.

If you have any concerns of designs you’re working on now, or walkways, stairways or ladders that you have in the pipeline, call Syngineering. We’ll make sure everything is OK on your design, then certify it for you with our RPEQ capabilities.

Engineering in Japan

Tuesday, January 14th, 2014

One of our engineers, Ben Ramsay, recently spent some time in Japan…

“I noticed how well EVERYTHING worked while I was there. How the entire country was such a complex system of interconnecting trains, planes, buses, cars and people. But during my stay there, I noticed that however complex, it was never complicated.

Shinkansen

The Japanese bullet trains – Shinkansen, are complex but elegant solutions increasing the mobility of Japanese people.

Everything from train timetables, down to locks on doors worked properly, and were not complicated. It is this philosphy that made me want to get back to work with Syngineering. I realised that the designs, concepts, drawings and ideas that Syngineering propose or submit to clients are sometimes complex, but never complicated. Our simple and cost effective designs provide ingenious solutions to problems that our clients have, and we take pride in our ability to produce our products.”

Email us, call us or drop in to see how we can offer effective solutions to your problem.

Syngineering and EJ Work Together

Thursday, December 12th, 2013

Syngineering and EJ have a great relationship, which enables both companies to collaborate to find solutions to a variety of different problems.

EJ required a lifting beam that could lift product from one stack to the next. The requirement of this job necessitated the design of a special lug which could rotate around the lifting beam, and lock into place by rotating the lug and locating it in a keyway along the length of the lifting beam.

This concept was accepted and the fabrication of a prototype began.

Do you need drawings and/or DXFs?

Wednesday, October 16th, 2013

Laser cutters know this story well… “Can you do this job for me? I don’t have drawings or DXFs though…” If you don’t have a drafting team in house, you might either take on the task of producing the DXF yourself or turning the customer away. Both of these options will limit the margins on your profits, and you might only be left with a handful of customers who have DXFs ready…

We are the home of a team of expert drafters and engineers who can quickly interpret your customer’s design, produce a drawing and DXF, and send it back your way – ready to be cut.

Our team of engineers and draftsmen know the limits of your machinery, and are ever-mindful of constraints that some clients may not realise.  Send your clients our way, and we will take their sketches and ideas, turn them into something YOU can use. Then we will send them back to you.
