Hose inspection and spooling at Fluid Control Service
What We Do

Hose Inspection
& Spooling

Indoor hydraulic inspection and spooling facility. Every hose checked to standard, pressure tested, documented, and returned ready for service, onshore or offshore.

The facility

Indoor hydraulic spooling unit

Our dedicated indoor facility handles hose inspection and spooling for umbilicals, hydraulic hoses, and flexible risers used in offshore operations. The unit runs with wireless remote control and an automatic winder that correctly positions the hose onto the drum.

Spooling is performed under pressure for hose expansion control, with an elevated inspection platform providing full access along the entire length. Operators are available for mobilisation onshore and offshore.

Inspection criteria

Assemblies are removed from service on discovery of any of the following:

Outer cover damage

Exposed or visible reinforcing wires due to abrasion, cuts, or impact.

Kinking, crushing, twisting

Any permanent deformation along the hose body affecting flow or pressure rating.

Reduced outside diameter

Indication of inner wire failure or collapse.

Cover degradation

Blistering, bubbling, or loose outer cover. Often a sign of internal deterioration.

Fitting condition

Corroded, damaged, or mechanically compromised end fittings.

Testing

Pressure testing to ISO & API

Test pressure

1.5× maximum working pressure per ISO and API specifications.

Hold time

Minimum 1 hour at test pressure before pass/fail assessment.

Spooling under pressure

Hose expansion controlled during spooling by maintaining line pressure throughout the operation.

Visual inspection

Full-length visual check from the elevated inspection platform on every deployment.
