Quality and Asset Management

PPI Quality and Asset Management, LLC, provides quality assurance, asset tracking, and regulatory compliance services and software.

If faults or missing components are discovered just before implementation, it can cost days of rig downtime and thousands, if not millions, of dollars. Instead, PPI offers services to assure manufacturing quality in the factory, if needed, or inspects tools about to ship.

Quality Assurance Services

PPI Technology Services offers comprehensive oilfield equipment verification and inspection services, including QA surveillance; inspection of components such as tubular goods, drilling and production risers and controls, drillpipe and drilling accessories; and design and implementation of quality plans.

To ensure that materials and equipment used in your next project meet design criteria, regulations, and industry standards, PPI Technology Services provides a complete quality assurance service package. We also furnish training, auditing, and failure investigation services.
