Practical applications

The task determines the scope.

Piping connections

Connections between tanks, pumps and process units. Materials, piping classes, joints, supports and interfaces are defined for the medium and operating conditions.

Valves as functional assemblies

Isolation and control valves, actuators and feedback. Material, function, control and failure behaviour matter alongside nominal diameter and pressure rating.

Shutdowns and maintenance

Replacement of piping, worn parts and process assemblies; pump and fan maintenance, alignment and inspection measurements. Work follows the plant’s isolation and worksite handover arrangements.

Valve automation and service

Complete pneumatic, electric or hydraulic actuator assemblies, automation of suitable existing valves and control upgrades. The supply combines installation, setting, feedback, functional testing and maintenance information.

Available scope

Piping components, prefabrication and actuated valves
Installation, dismantling and reconstruction
Shutdown maintenance of pumps, fans, tanks and piping
Replacement of screens and worn parts, equipment alignment and verification measurements

From the brief to handover

Connected work. Clear checkpoints.

01
Survey and scope
Verify actual conditions, media, access, connection points and replacement part requirements.
02
Intervention planning
Prefabrication, dismantling and tie-in plans, material readiness, handling and discipline coordination.
03
Installation or repair
Execute the work to the approved method and operator’s conditions. Check joints, alignment and installation interfaces during the work.
04
Testing and return to service
Agreed tightness or functional checks, documentation and handover with the operator. Test requirements are specific to the equipment.
