Commissioning & start-up

SPEC commissioning teams take the facility from mechanical completion to a plant running on specification, ready for handover to the client’s operations team.

How we deliver

From mechanical completion
to handover.

01
Each system is declared ready for start-up only once its pre-commissioning checks are complete.
02
Handover is the boundary of this service: operator training and ongoing operation and maintenance continue under SPEC’s operation and maintenance service.
