Force Inspection Services, a company that provides drill pipe and tubing inspection services to the oil and gas industry, will open a new service facility in Grande Prairie, AB.

Force Inspection decided to open Grande Prairie location in an effort to help meet the growing demand of their services in the area. The new facility will incorporate additional machinery and space to optimize efficiency of testing, while bringing additional inventory to its customers faster, with a focus on quality and safety.

John Maygard, president of Force Inspection and a tubular inspection veteran, utilized his years of experience in the planning and development of this facility. Knowing his busiest time is just around the corner, John is well aware that the harsh Grande Prairie winters can slow down labor. “Having a sheltered facility will more than likely increase efficiencies and quality of inspections through the winter months”, said Maygard.

“This presents a tremendous opportunity to expand our services, and is a natural step forward for us to achieve our fiscal goals as we expand our business.”.

Force Inspection’s new facility is expected to be fully operational November 15th, 2014.
