Superior Technical Services Mobilizes Emergency Workshop for Bapetco’s Obaiyed Site ISV Maintenance

16-1-2023

In 2023, Superior Technical Services (STS), a division of Superior Group, responded promptly to an urgent maintenance request from Badr El Din Petroleum Company (Bapetco) at their Obaiyed site in Egypt’s Western Desert. The project focused on the repair and servicing of critical Isolation Valves (ISVs) essential for the site’s oil and gas production operations.

To address the situation efficiently, STS deployed its specialized emergency shutdown mobile workshop directly to the Obaiyed field. This fully equipped mobile unit enabled the STS team to perform comprehensive on-site diagnostics, repairs, and testing of the ISVs without the need for off-site transportation, thereby minimizing operational downtime.

The on-site maintenance approach offered several key advantages:

Rapid Response: The mobilization of the emergency workshop facilitated immediate action, ensuring that valve issues were addressed promptly to maintain production continuity.

Operational Efficiency: On-site repairs eliminated the delays associated with off-site servicing, allowing Bapetco to resume normal operations swiftly.

Cost-Effectiveness: By conducting maintenance at the site, STS reduced the logistical expenses and resource allocation typically required for transporting equipment.

Safety Assurance: The presence of specialized equipment and certified personnel ensured that all maintenance activities adhered to stringent safety protocols, safeguarding both the workforce and the environment.


This collaboration underscores STS’s commitment to providing responsive and tailored maintenance solutions that meet the specific needs of clients in the oil and gas sector. By leveraging advanced mobile infrastructure and technical expertise, STS continues to support the operational excellence of industry leaders like Bapetco.
