What Clearwater Fire Solutions does

Clearwater Fire Solutions is a UK-based fire protection services company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Portlethen, Aberdeen. The company delivers specialised firewater deluge testing, inspection, accreditation, and remediation services to operators in offshore oil and gas, nuclear power generation, industrial, renewables, and marine sectors. Its principal differentiator is its role as the exclusive UK agent for Siron BV's globally patented Dry Deluge Testing technology—an inert vapour method that verifies deluge system integrity without introducing water, regulator-accepted on the UK Continental Shelf since 2014 and used on a continuous basis by at least one major North Sea operator since launch.
