Zenith’s Continues It’s Innovation & Excellence Through World Class Research & Development

Zenith is globally recognized for its commitment to innovation and excellence, consistently delivering industry-leading access and repair solutions to the foremost blue-chip companies in the oil, gas, and petrochemical sectors. A long term client, with complete confidence in Zenith’s extensive world class in-house capabilities for temporary works design and specialist access solutions, sought to address a persistent confined space access challenge within their refinery’s Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCCU).

Historically, access to the FCCU was achieved through a combination of traditional scaffolding, rope ladders, and rope access methods, which impacted on the scope of inspections and repairs due to the confined space within the unit and typically the limited time available. With extensive expertise in providing specialist access solutions and a renowned world class research and development capability, Zenith designed and fabricated a comprehensive range of specialist confined space access equipment designed to ensure safe installation and operational efficiency throughout the unit.

Our Engineering and Product Development teams carried out initial research by gathering feedback directly from our on-site operatives regarding the first revision of the folding platform, which had been successfully used across a number of projects over several years. From this feedback, a detailed product brief was developed, allowing the Engineering, Product Development, and Fabrication Workshop teams to begin creating a prototype for testing at Zenith’s in-house R&D facility.
