Bevel Tech Group, Inc. – Have You Seen Us Lately?

As we begin 2016, we would like to re-introduce Bevel Tech Group, Inc. to all our past and current customers. The 2015 year introduced some changes to Bevel Tech Group, Inc., including the addition of services such as the Line Isolation and Hydrostatic Weld Testing and the Bolt Torquing Services.

  • Deep Water Pipe Counterboring Services and Pipe Insulation Modifications

Look Back at 2015 and 2016 Forecast

As most companies in 2015 we were challenged to make the best of a down turn in the Deep-Water Industry. Fortunately, with the diversity of the services we provide we were able to focus on the direction that would take us through 2015 and beyond. With every down turn there is an upside. Natural Gas prices and availability was the key to spurring an abundance of work in the Petro-Chemical / Heavy Industrial Plant areas.

Also, we added a few more services to our portfolio that we are extremely excited about the growth and potential it will bring. We believe the outlook for 2016 will still have its challenges but we feel we will see the Deep Water Industry start to recover in Q3 and Q4 of 2016. As well, we expect the Petro-Chemical Industry to continue to take advantage of natural gas prices, which will spur continued construction and turnarounds throughout South Louisiana.

However, the highlight in 2015 for us is that BTG achieved its accreditation as a NCCER Training and Assessment Center. This will be so important for us going forward to ensure and verify our technician’s meet and exceed the expectations in the Industry. It’s important that we focus our attention to the quality of the services provided as well as maintain competitive pricing. Doing the job right, the first time, will remain our focus going forward into 2016.
