ASSET Technical Support & Consultancy
Real Support for Real Problems
In this industry, not every problem has a simple answer.
You might be looking at a cylinder and not be 100% sure if it should pass or fail.
Your compressor isn’t behaving as it should.
A regulator isn’t delivering properly under load.
Or something just doesn’t seem right.
These are the kinds of situations where guessing isn’t good enough.
Over the years, many technicians I’ve trained have come back to me with questions. I’m always happy to help where I can, but some issues need proper time, proper review, and a clear technical answer.
That’s exactly what this service is here for.
What I Can Help With
This service is aimed at technicians, dive centres, and operators who need solid, practical advice based on real experience.
Typical areas include:
- Cylinder visual inspection and rejection decisions
- Internal corrosion, pitting, and condition assessment
- Valve threads (M25x2, 3/4 NPSM) and compatibility
- Hydrostatic testing procedures and troubleshooting
- Compressor faults, filtration, and air quality (EN 12021)
- Air banks, filling panels, and system layouts
- Regulator performance, servicing, and fault finding
- Oxygen service and clean systems
- Workshop setup and best practice
If something doesn’t look right — it usually isn’t.
