TEHRAN - Iranian companies are capable of designing, manufacturing, and reverse engineering of industrial components and they can meet the needs of the oil, gas, petrochemical, and even advanced energy industries, a relevant official said.
Muhammad Mehdi Hadavi, the secretary of the Knowledge-Based Economy Development headquarters of Iran for Machinery and Advanced Industrial Equipment, made the remarks after visiting Petro Energy Hirad company which succeeded in obtaining knowledge-based certification for a number of its products.
Petro Energy Hirad is also developing its capacities to obtain knowledge-based certification for the ‘pump impeller’ product which is a vital component whose manufacturing technology requires high precision and advanced engineering processes. The company enjoys full capabilities in engineering design, 3D modeling, optical digitization, precision machining, manufacturing sliding bearings, providing specialized quality control services, and reverse engineering design for complex components.
The high quality of products and a completely local approach to engineering and manufacturing processes have placed Petro Energy Hirad in a suitable position to develop the domestic market and even export its products.
In a relevant development in April, Iranian Vice-President for Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy Hossein Afshin unveiled two knowledge-based strategic products utilized for monitoring, controlling, and inspecting oil pipelines.
The Electro Magnetic Inspection (EMI) tool, used in non-destructive technical inspection of seamless pipes, was the first knowledge-based product unveiled at this ceremony which is used in the drilling industry and has been designed and manufactured for the first time in the country by specialists at Arzyaban Dana San’at Etemad company, affiliated to Mazid Industrial Group.
The company is the only manufacturer of this device in Iran and Asia and can meet the country’s needs in the field of pipeline inspection.
Preventing unforeseen failures, costs resulting from not completing work on time, and costly stoppages of drilling operations are among the most important functions of this device.
Also, during the ceremony, the Pipeline Telecommunication System (PLT), a smart system that uses metal lines to transmit monitoring and control data, was unveiled.
Experts from San’at Electro-Oxin Iranian company developed system that uses existing oil and gas pipes to transmit data to monitor the status of oil and gas lines.
