Benefits of renting pipeline equipment at Maats

Maats Pipeline Professionals has one of the largest and most modern pipeline equipment fleets in the world, consisting of over 500 high quality items. Renting equipment offers several benefits for pipeline contractors and owners.
   

Modern fleet

With increasingly large pipeline construction projects and a fluctuating market, maintaining a fleet of specialized equipment for pipeline construction is becoming a challenge. This makes the following advantage extra significant for the contractor: with the possibility to rent equipment, customers gain normally have access to well- maintained equipment that meets the latest emission requirements and safety standards. This leads to less maintenance and machine downtime, resulting in direct financial benefits for the project owner.  

Low investment, high flexibility

Renting equipment also offers companies flexibility and a complete package of specialized equipment for all common diameters without having to invest in a whole fleet. This is especially useful for companies with limited budgets or working on incidental pipeline construction projects. Additionally, Maats guarantees flexibility, through the availability of many machines in different classes (lift capacity) and applications (bending, welding, pipelaying), the ability to provide transport to and from job sites, as well as equipment insurance and technical assistance at the job site. The rental process at Maats is efficient and automated. We can see exactly how many hours a machine is running by consulting the machine management system and automatically receive notifications when maintenance is required. This allows the technical assistance team to take swift and proactive action, in cooperation with the customer, to keep the machines up and running. Maats provides on-site service, meaning that the customer does not have to worry about regular interval maintenance.  

The complete package

At Maats, companies can find a complete package of equipment, making one- stop-shopping the easiest option. Maats’ complete package holds specialized pipeline construction equipment for various applications. For example, bending machines (conventional horizontal pipe bending machines and Maats Internal Bending machines), pipelayers, welding tractors, line-up clamps, mandrels, roller cradles, etc. for all diameters. Renting these specialized machines allows companies to access the appropriate equipment at the right time and to focus on their core competences.
