SGS Offers Certification Services for UOP in Russia
SGS Provides Certification Services for UOP in Russia
SGS was awarded a contract to support UOP in obtaining the full scope of Russian statutory certificates and compliance documentation, including the GOST R Certificate of Conformity, Russian Explosion Safety Certificate and Rostechnadzor Permit to Use (RTN Permit to Use) as well as reviewing technical passports and providing project related consultancy services.
According to Russian law, prior to construction of an industrial or civil site on Russian territory, a number of approvals are required before undertaking engineering, construction and other technical activities. In order to meet Russian certification requirements and proceed with business activities in Russia without delays, UOP, an international company that delivers cutting-edge technology to the petroleum refining, gas processing, petrochemical production and major manufacturing industries, looked for a well-known, reliable certification company.
Knowing the extensive experience and excellent references of SGS, the Belgian branch of UOP assigned SGS Industrial Services a contract to provide Certification Services for Russia. Between July 2008 and April 2009, SGS conducted a turnkey certification solution that enabled UOP to deliver UOP Polybed™ Pressure Swing Adsorption System (PSA) for a Russian refinery and to commission it in full conformity with Russian legislation.
Within the scope of the certification service, SGS Industrial Services attested that the UOP Polybed™ PSA System meets all necessary safety standards. The review procedure included the evaluation of technical documentation, surveillance visits, sampling, analysis, type testing in SGS laboratories and factory audits. Due to the extensive experience and knowledge of SGS, UOP obtained the GOST R Certificate of Conformity on time and without any obstacles.
Furthermore, SGS carried out a technical evaluation of the Polybed™ Pressure Swing Adsorption System to ensure compliance with Russian explosion safety standards.Thanks to the professional work of SGS, UOP received the Russian Explosion Safety Certificate on time.
In order to obtain the Rostechnadzor Permit to Use, SGS, as a Rostechnadzor licensed agency, carried out a full documentation review, which entailed the verification of the design safety, operational and environmental safety. This certificate provides UOP the permission to operate hazardous equipment and technical devices.
Due to the experience and excellent performance of SGS, the entire certification process was completed in April 2009 and UOP was able to proceed with its business activities on Russian territory on time and without any obstacles.The fact that UOP chose SGS instead of a Russian competitor demonstrates once again that SGS is an internationally recognized and appreciated inspection, verification, testing and certification company.
The SGS Group is the global leader and innovator in inspection, verification, testing and certification services. Founded in 1878, SGS is recognized as the global benchmark in quality and integrity. With more than 59,000 employees, SGS operates a network of over 1,000 offices and laboratories around the world.
