Oil and Gas and Spring Wire Form Manufacturers

Known for our reliably high quality standards and level of customer service, our expert engineers and dedicated operations team offer the highest level of support to assist our oil and gas industry customers to meet the exacting needs of their industry.

Role of Springs and Wireforms in Oil and Gas Operations

Springs and wireforms are used in many oil & gas industry applications, with each one requiring different specifications and functionality. As custom spring manufacturers, we support many customers in the oil and gas industry by manufacturing reliable and compliant components such as: –

  • Valve Actuators: Used in valve actuation systems to control the flow of fluids and gases, these components are normally compression  or torsion springs and provide the necessary force for opening and closing valves, ensuring precise control over fluid flow rates and pressure levels.
  • Downhole Tools: For drilling operations, our components are integrated into downhole tools to enable functions like centralisation, logging, and wellbore intervention. These specialist wire forms provide the required mechanical support and resilience to withstand harsh downhole conditions.
  • Safety Systems: Bespoke wire forms and springs, often made from specialist materials including Inconel and nimonic alloys are manufactured as components of safety systems, including emergency shutdown valves, pressure relief valves, and blowout preventers. These components facilitate the swift and reliable activation of safety measures in critical situations.
  • Subsea Equipment: Wireforms and spring components are utilised in subsea connectors, umbilical systems, and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to ensure the proper functioning of mechanical components and facilitate maintenance and repair operations in challenging underwater environments.

Challenges for Gas and Oil Spring Manufacturers

The challenging environments posed by the oil and gas industry include not only the physical environment which parts are required to operate within, but also the stringent regulatory standards imposed on the industry.

Corrosion Resistant Springs

Corrosion resistance is vital for springs intended for oil and gas applications, as components can often be exposed to aggressive substances and harsh operating environments.

We safeguard the integrity and performance of springs by assisting designers with the selection of materials with appropriate mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, ensuring springs and wire forms maintain their functionality and structural integrity over extended periods of operation.

We use corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel and can offer specialised coatings to improve the life and reliability of springs.

High-Pressure and Temperature Resistant Springs

Compensating for this challenge is especially important for downhole settings during exploration and production activities. We work with your designers to ensure that our springs and wire forms are manufactured to withstand these extreme pressures and temperatures without sacrificing their intended mechanical or dimensional properties.

High-Precision Springs and Reliable Results

The specifications related to these industrial applications demand the highest levels of accuracy. Our state of the art CNC machinery combined with our professional camera tracking technology, guarantees the accuracy and tight tolerances required for every component.

Compatibility with Oil and Gas Industrial Standards

Given the sector’s highly regulated nature, our skilled engineers use their extensive knowledge of spring making, combined with the latest CNC manufacturing equipment, to produce springs and wire forms for our oil & gas sector clients to ensure that the components we manufacture, meet the required compliance and conform to industry benchmarks including NACE and ISO.

Tailored Spring Solutions for Oil and Gas Applications

With our dedication to a customer-centric approach to our spring manufacturing for oil and gas, we have created a streamlined system to develop bespoke spring and wire forming solutions that will meet even the most demanding design specifications.

Outside of Airdale Springs

Our engineers have the expertise and flexibility to assist your designers  and produce springs of a multitude of shapes, sizes, and configurations to meet the diverse needs of our customers in the oil and gas industry. From our work with small springs to much larger industrial compression springs, we guarantee that we will manufacture consistently compliant components to meet your needs..
