Rotary & handling equipment inspections | API 7&8
Rotary and handling tools stay safe, compliant and operationally ready through inspections carried out in accordance with industry standards and manufacturer specifications. Equipment risks are identified early, giving operations managers certainty that every asset meets regulatory demands. Control Union delivers these inspections with in-house specification data that accelerates every engagement.
Safety and compliance through rotary and handling tool inspection

These standards govern dimensional tolerances and wear limits, so each inspection produces a clear pass-or-fail outcome that satisfies regulatory scrutiny.
Years of field experience have built deep familiarity with equipment from major manufacturers, which translates into faster preparation and fewer surprises on site.
