🚧 Project Success at Eskom – Limpopo 🚧

Our rope access team, led by Moses Dube, was deployed to an Eskom power station in Limpopo for urgent flue gas ducting repairs.

After our drone inspection revealed welding defects in a hard-to-reach area, our specialists stepped in to:
✅ Remove & replace lagging and cladding
✅ Perform high-quality welding repairs
✅ Conduct MPI (Magnetic Particle Inspection) to verify the integrity of the fix

With a combination of advanced drone tech and skilled rope access NDT practitioners, we delivered a safe, efficient, and on-time solution in a challenging environment.

🔧 Another project delivered to the highest standard!

**Throwback Wednesday**

Meet our dedicated Skyriders Rope Access rescue team at Medupi Power Station.

Pushing Limits, Elevating Standards

When tasked with inspecting the top rim of a 180-meter cooling tower—with no lifts or ladders in sight—Skyriders rose to the challenge.
Using advanced rope access techniques and express anchoring system, our team safely scaled the full height of the structure. Each anchor was professionally installed, tested, and trusted—ensuring total safety as we ascended for a critical concrete integrity investigation.

No scaffolding. No shortcuts. Just expert precision at extreme heights.
That’s the Skyriders standard.

Concrete coring tests are essential for evaluating the strength and quality of existing structures.

Traditional access methods like scaffolding, cherry pickers etc, are time-consuming and costly. Skyriders offers a faster, safer and more efficient solution for reaching difficult areas and conducting accurate coring.

Project Dundee (Namibia)

A team of six was deployed to Dundee Precious Metals in Tsumeb, Namibia, to support the clearance of a 100-meter shaft. A collision-tolerant drone was utilized to conduct a preliminary survey, assessing the condition and extent of the debris before rope access technicians commenced the clearing operations. The project was successfully executed.
