Gas and water engineering specialist Advanced Engineering Services (AES) has secured a new five-year framework deal with Northern Gas Networks (NGN).
AES, a subsidiary of South Staffordshire Plc, will deliver all of the company’s inspection and refurbishment work for gas pre-heating assets and ancillary equipment that are subject to the Pressure System Safety Regulations.
AES has been a long-standing supply partner to NGN, which provides new gas connection services to much of Yorkshire, the North East and northern Cumbria, and several other gas network operators for these inspection and refurbishment services.
The firm said it will continue to support the NGN team in delivering energy safely and efficiently to the UK’s industrial and residential customers.
It added that the AES team’s understanding of gas network pre-heating assets and their sites ensures that the gas distribution and transmission networks benefit from value-added services and that industry knowledge is retained and passed on to the workforces of the future.
Simon Holden, general manager at AES, said: “Timely, cost-effective, and dependable delivery of inspection and refurbishment services for pre-heating equipment ensures compliant, safe and reliable delivery of gas which is of critical importance to NGN, its customers and the economy in the north of England. We are looking forward to continuing to develop our partnership with NGN using our team’s detailed site knowledge that has been accumulated over the last decade.”
