Mechanical Engineering Services — Onyx Engineering
Onyx Engineering delivers comprehensive mechanical engineering support for demolition, decommissioning, and site redevelopment projects. From feasibility through execution, our multidisciplinary team ensures safe, compliant, and efficient outcomes that integrate seamlessly with project design and operations.
Why choose Onyx for mechanical engineering
Integrated discipline: Mechanical design, systems assessment, and execution planning aligned with demolition and deconstruction needs.
Safety and compliance: Projects guided by ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 9001:2015, with rigorous risk assessments, RAMS, and QA/QC controls.
Asset-preserving approach: Engineering solutions that optimize system removal, salvage, and reuse while safeguarding remaining assets.
Constructability and efficiency: Practical designs and sequences that minimize downtime and coordinate with utilities, scaffolding, and access constraints.
Sustainability focus: Material recovery, equipment decontamination, and waste minimization integrated into mechanical plans.
Core capabilities
Mechanical condition surveys: In-situ assessment of piping, HVAC, process equipment, and mechanical rooms to guide removal sequencing.
System decommissioning plans: Safe isolation, depressurization, draining, and permits-to-work strategies for complex facilities.
Equipment removal engineering: Lifting plans, rigging analysis, and dismantling sequences for large machinery and reactors.
Piping systems de-scoping and isolation: Identification of live runs, hazard assessments, and safe disconnection procedures.
HVAC and process systems: Safe isolation, adverse condition assessment, and prudent removal or repurposing strategies.
Ventilation and fire protection integration: Ensuring compliance with environmental controls and fire safety during decommissioning.
As-built reconciliation: Updating drawings and documentation to reflect completed work and post-demolition conditions.
