Trial Facilities

Our systems are called to operate in extremely hostile environments where man access is impossible and the development, trial and in-house testing become of paramount importance for the success in operation. Our project teams are trained in modern and extensive Trial and & Test Facilities located at our CUT Headquarters UK in the Aberdeen Science and Energy Park, Bridge of Don and our Loyang CUT Singapore. Both Facilities include offices, workshops, indoor and outdoor test areas with lifting plant to carry out full-scale mock-up test-trials. Key features are our underwater test tanks with viewing windows and the 600 tonne compression frame purpose built in UK to test our diamond wires in action under extreme loads. Our US Facilities in Houma LA include a 10-metre dia. x 6.5-metre deep test pool built specifically to simulate cutting operation offshore and in nuclear reactor pools.
