At Durham Engineering UK, pressure vessel and storage tank design are two of our core services.

From initial concept through to fabrication-ready drawings, we deliver bespoke, end-to-end design solutions, engineered to meet the highest safety standards, operational demands and regulatory codes.

We work with clients across oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, food & beverage, water treatment and pharmaceuticals, tailoring every design to the specific needs of the industry and the project.

Whatever our customers require, our commitment is the same; we provide compliant, efficient and precisely engineered solutions.

Durham Engineering offer a bespoke mechanical design service working with clients who need solutions built around their specific requirements.

From precision-machined components to full mechanism and machine design, we take a project from concept through to fabrication-ready completion, using FEA analysis and parametric modelling to validate and optimise designs before a single part is manufactured or fabricated.

If you're working on something that needs a bespoke mechanical engineering solution, get in touch.

At Durham Engineering UK, we deliver tailored engineering solutions to clients of every size. Whether you need a one-off technical appraisal or full project oversight from concept through to detailed design, our focus is the same; practical, cost-effective engineering, completed to the highest standards.

Our core services include:

- Pressure Vessel & Storage Tank Design — full design capability aligned with PE(S)R and PSSR legislation.
- Piping Systems & Skid Design — bespoke process piping, including flow analysis, pipe stress analysis and 3D modelling.
- Bespoke Mechanical Design — custom components and specialist systems, supported by engineering analysis.
- Simulation Modelling & Analysis — FEA and CFD using analytical and numerical methods.
- Project Management, Control & Planning — services shaped around your requirements, not a template.
- Front End Design Consultancy — turning conceptual ideas into feasible, deliverable designs.

If the work calls for a discipline outside our core range, we manage it through a trusted network of design partners, ensuring you get one point of contact and a complete solution.

One of our mantras here at Durham Engineering is that engineering should enhance the world through the implementation of technology. Contact us to find out how we can apply this to your project!

In mechanical engineering, the cost of getting it wrong is rarely just financial. A poorly validated pressure vessel, an under-specified support structure or a piping system that overlooks thermal expansion can mean unplanned downtime, safety incidents and lost client confidence.

This is why Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has become indispensable.

At Durham Engineering UK, ANSYS Mechanical is a cornerstone of how we support our clients.

ANSYS Mechanical allows us to interrogate a design long before any metal is cut. Static and dynamic stress analysis, thermal behaviour, fatigue life, modal response, and non-linear contact, are all examined virtually, with results that stand up to code compliance scrutiny (PD 5500, EN 13445, ASME VIII, and beyond).

But simulation is only as valuable as the engineer behind it. A model is just a model; it takes experience to set up the right boundary conditions, choose suitable element types, and interpret results in the context of real-world operation. That is where we add value.

Whether it is a bespoke pressure vessel, a storage tank, a process skid, or a piece of machinery requiring detailed mechanical analysis, we use ANSYS Mechanical to give our clients designs that are safe, efficient, and fit for purpose.

Engineering excellence isn't a slogan. It's a discipline. And the right tools, used well, make all the difference!

Every project that Durham Engineering UK are involved in tells a story.

At Durham Engineering, we're inspired daily by the people behind the projects — the founders, the operators, the in-house engineers who trust us to solve real problems.

Watching a client's idea move from sketch to specification to something physical, working in the world, never gets old.

Every brief, whether it's a conceptual study, a detailed design, or a technical appraisal of in-service equipment, or a turnkey solution involving design, fabrication and installation, gets the same care and rigour.

Because engineering, at its best, isn't about chasing the biggest contract - it's about technology making things better; that's the work that inspires us. And we're grateful to every client who lets us be part of theirs.
