Pipeline Solutions
Balltec pipeline solutions has an unrivalled track record of pipeline solutions including the development of tooling and systems in pipeline recovery, pipelay, infrastructure upgrades, IRM, emergency repair and decommissioning.

PipeLOK™
Balltec PipeLOK™ tools offer a highly robust, fast and 100% reliable method of both abandoning and recovering subsea pipelines at ANY water depth. Balltec designs and tests tools suitable for ANY pipe diameter.

Subsea PIG & Plug Launcher
Balltec’s Subsea PIG Launcher is the world’s first diverless and flangeless subsea PIG Launcher. The PIG launch system can work independently or in conjunction with Balltec’s PipeLOK™ pipeline recovery tools to enabling pipelines to be lifted from the sea bed in a dewatered state.
Lifting Solutions
Balltec lifting solutions delivers innovative lifting and handling systems for complex engineering projects. Balltec has provided lifting solutions across multiple engineering disciplines and industries.

LiftLOK™
Balltec LiftLOK™ tools provide a simple, robust, high capacity method for connecting and disconnecting heavy loads to and from lifting devices. As a purely mechanical device, containing no hydraulics and requiring minimum ROV intervention, LiftLOKTM products are ideally suited for the deployment and retrieval of equipment to and from the ocean floor.
Mooring Solutions
Balltec mooring solutions provides an analytical and practical approach which results in innovative solutions that allow for safe and cost effective installation in the field.

MoorLOK™
Balltec MoorLOK™ is the world’s only patented ball and taper subsea mooring connector with over 300 connectors in service. The MoorLOK™ is helping to reduce the CAPEX cost of projects by significantly reducing the installation time associated with mooring hook-up.

Helical Connector™
The patented Helical Connector™ is a simplified subsea mooring connector suitable for the most demanding mooring applications. The Helical Connector™ is built on Balltec’s experience in subsea moorings and are specifically designed to retain ease of use whilst reducing parts count and negating the need for corrosion inhibitors and environmental seals.

RigLOK™
The RigLOK™ connector enables release under load in all operating conditions, allowing disconnection to take place closer to potential weather threats.
SURF Solutions
Balltec SURF solutions has gained a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced in the SURF (Subsea Umbilical, Riser and Flowline) market. Through extensive R&D activity, Balltec has designed, developed and tested a range of tools for multiple SURF applications including diverless bend stiffener connectors, riser hang-off tools and pull-in heads.

BendLOK™
Built on Balltec’s subsea mechanical mooring equipment, the BendLOK™ adaptable design is inherently flexible to interface with various risers, umbilicals and end terminations. The BendLOK™ has a fully automatic connection and disconnection system without the need for diver or ROV intervention.

Flexible Recovery Tool (FRT)
Balltec’s Flexible Recovery Tool (FRT) recovers flexible risers & pipelines cost-effectively and reduces the long-term environmental impact of subsea infrastructure being left in place on the seabed.
OilField Solutions
Balltec SURF solutions has gained a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced in the SURF (Subsea Umbilical, Riser and Flowline) market. Through extensive R&D activity, Balltec has designed, developed and tested a range of tools for multiple SURF applications including diverless bend stiffener connectors, riser hang-off tools and pull-in heads.

CoilLOK™
Balltec CoilLOK™ is specifically designed to aid in the handling of coiled tubing and is available in sizes ranging from 1” – 3.5”. It has been engineered to gain the maximum SWL whilst remaining compact enough for use through injector heads and light enough for simple hand-held operation.
