Upgrading for the Future

In 2011, ClampOn moved to its current location, an industrial building in Vaagsgaten 10. Now, four years later, the storage area in the basement has been upgraded to a multifunctional area for production, customer FATs, and logistics.

The centrepiece of the basement transformation is a two-ton overhead crane. As ClampOn is a company with in-house manufacturing of heavy equipment such as the Subsea Corrosion-Erosion Monitors (CEM), the crane facilitates production as well as logistics, while meeting strict HSE standards.

“With this upgrade we have gained a more streamlined mechanical production line. By using the overhead crane we can handle larger mechanical components like spool pieces for the Subsea CEM, and other heavy equipment, in a safe and secure manner. I am confident that this will increase efficiency and quality of manufacturing,” says Per Arne Aadland, Head of Production & Engineering.

Two well-equipped FAT rooms have been set up in the new area. This provides easy access to equipment of all sizes and quantities for visiting inspectors.

Furthermore, outgoing logistics has moved downstairs as the new area includes a locked packing and storage section with an adjacent office space.

“We strive to be a little bit better every day and we believe in growth, so we are preparing ourselves to meet future demand,” continues Per Arne.
