Somewhere in the mix are integrated service companies, which supply and maintain equipment and transport mediums used by businesses that operate at oil fields. Without these companies, the oil enterprise would be far less safe. One such venture is TAG Energy, an integrated service company that offers a variety of oil field support services. These include valve maintenance, flange management, leak detection and repair, and the acquisition and procurement of oil field equipment. Founded in 2016, TAG Energy has steadily expanded its service capacity and broadened its client base. To date, it has delivered more than 200 projects for a large number of clients, including Shell, Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Total, Daewoo, Addax Petroleum, and Nigeria LNG. It has also worked with almost two-dozen partners to deliver its services. TAG Energy’s flange management service covers the sealing of joints at chemical plants, refineries, and offshore installations. This helps to maintain joint integrity and prevent leakage at these sites. It also repairs and maintains Pressure Safety Valves (PSVs).  The company acquires equipment for operators in the upstream and downstream sectors of the petroleum industry. These items include sealing technologies, flanges, pipes and pipe fittings, insulation, and flow control materials. Taken together with its maintenance services, the provision of these items makes the company a one-stop-shop for the whole range of oil field solutions.

But as long as there’s work to be done by companies that operate within the industry, service providers like TAG Energy will be around to help with the equipment that such businesses use.
