Many of of you are aware the API 1169 certification is one that is gaining acceptance at an overwhelming rate amongst a vast amount of owner/operators within the oil and gas industry. In fact many of these owners are requiring 25% of their inspection staff to be certified now and 75% by the end of this year. What this means is that these owners are preferring individual inspectors who are certified over those who are not. This is creating a higher employment opportunity for those that are already certified. Eagle Infrastructure Services, Inc. is encouraging those who are not certified to start the process of attempting to get this completed.
