Process Piping<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”top”][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Southern Steel Engineering Process Piping Engineers, with experience as a mechanical piping contractor, our team can provide pipe welders\/operators, pipe fitters, welding inspectors.<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

We offer pipe welding services to companies in Cork, Waterford and across Ireland. Our flexibility and ability to respond quickly to meet new client demands sets us apart from our competition.<\/h4>\n

We are constantly investing in the latest welding equipment and technology to provide pipeline owners & operators, piping systems that are designed, installed and commissioned utilising high-quality welding procedures that is tested to the required inspection standards.<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We also perform in-service pipe welding to install and repair damaged lines, extensions, bypasses, and main relocation<\/strong>. Pipelines carrying gas, water or petroleum could cause a major disaster if they are not maintained and repaired correctly.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”396″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”966″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Piping Systems utilising\u00a0Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Duplex and Super Duplex Stainless Steels, Inconel,Titanium, Aluminium, Hastelloy, Copper Nickel, Nickel Chrome Alloys.<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Along side all piping systems there is array of other materials used in the installation, coating and protection, insulation and assembly.<\/p>\n

Southern Steel Engineering can offer a full turnkey package<\/strong> to clients.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The process piping and utility piping sector generally refers to a system of pipes transporting fluids typically chemical, fuels, steam, gas or water around an industrial facility.<\/h4>\n

Pipelines and piping systems are the safest means to transport gases and fluids across countries or manufacturing facilities<\/strong> and, depending on the material being piped, are generally made of carbon steel, stainless steel, or in certain highly aggressive environments an alloy steel such as a duplex stainless.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”976″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”497″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Southern Steel Engineering recognises that the welding of a pipe installation is only one aspect. The mechanical installation, cleaning, testing, coating, commissioning, and quality documentation all form large separate scopes within a piping project.<\/h4>\n

Our team of mechanical\/pipe fitters, welders, riggers, trade assistants, site engineers and inspectors<\/strong> can ensure complete success with your piping project.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Contact Us to Discuss with Your Piping System Projects.” shape=”square” color=”primary” size=”lg” align=”center” link=”url:%2Fcontact%2F|title:Contact”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator el_width=”70″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Utility Piping<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Non-process piping associated with a process unit (e.g. steam, air, water, nitrogen, etc.) Typically refer to as service lines as are use to support a process with in a manufacturing plant<\/strong>. Utility piping is the start of all piping installations and is normally connected up to a main supply line from a pump, boiler, compressor, or mains feed underground. Utility piping is an extensive web of pipe connecting every aspect of our modern world.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”967″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

2. Instrument Piping<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Small bore piping used for instrumentation typically control valves, pressure gauges, and flow meters<\/strong>. Generally 12mm in diameter and below, it involves bending with specialized tube benders. It can be welded although it is normally joined using compression fittings.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”981″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

3. Process Piping<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hydrocarbon or chemical piping located at, or associated with a refinery or manufacturing facility<\/strong>. Process piping includes piperack, tank farm, and process unit piping, but excludes utility piping (e.g. steam, water, air, nitrogen, etc).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”968″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

4. High Purity Piping<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Piping used in the Pharmaceutical, Bio-Technology, Sanitary and Food sectors. This piping is commonly referred to has hygienic piping due to the high levels of hygienic requirements.<\/strong><\/p>\n

High purity piping typically is stainless steel thin walled tube (less than 2mm) with a internally polished finished. It is normally welded with a orbital welding systems and requires monitored purging of a inert gas inside the tube throughout the welding to ensure a acceptable internal finish<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The high precision welding is conducted in a clean room<\/strong> where there is a low risk of contamination. The environment is controlled to ensure quality results.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”964″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”508″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”509″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”367″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1142″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1143″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
