We help energy companies keep critical pipeline infrastructure safe, compliant, and ready for the energy transition. AFAA is an independent engineering consultancy specialising in stress and finite element analysis, pipeline integrity, and risk assessment. We support operators and asset owners in making high-consequence decisions, from design verification through to advanced integrity assessments and failure modelling. Our expertise also extends to the repurposing of existing pipeline assets for hydrogen service, helping clients navigate the technical challenges of decarbonisation with confidence. We are trusted for one reason: we deliver clear, rigorous engineering that reduces risk, extends asset life, and gives our clients confidence in their decisions.
