SMAW is used even for pressure vessels and heat exchanger even though not very efficient process. We cover WPS approval process, controls , expected weld defects and remedies

GTAW , Gas Tungsten Arc welding also known as Tungsten Inert Gas welding is one of the most extensively used welding process used in piping, for low carbon steel, Stainless steel and exotic materials such as Monel. Inconel. Hastelloy, Low productive process but produces high quality of weld when precision is of outmost importance. Extensively used for root welding of carbon ,steel and Stainless steel including exotic materials We cover a approval process , controls , expected weld defects and remedies.

Submerged Arc Welding -SAW

SAW , is one of the most extensively used welding process used in industry, A very high productive process yielding quality weld deposit. Extensively used for heavy fabrication, Cranes, Pressure vessels, Mining Products, Heat Exchangers , Columns, long Seam and Spiral welded Pipes. Uses granular flux with limitation of welding only in downhill position

Static Equipment

Pressure Vessels Pressure vessels are extensively used in Oil & Gas

industry and built as per various national/

International standard , most commonly used is ASME

Boiler and pressure vessel code. Some of the equipment

covered under pressure vessels includes Boilers,

Seperators, Desalters, Furnaces , distillation columns ,

knock out drums including heat exchangers.

We cover basic concept of a pressure vessels, materials

used , manufacturing process and inspection process

and certification requirement. You will get an

excellent working knowledge and ready to deliver.

Vertical Storage Tank

We cover basic concept of a pressure vessels, materials used , manufacturing process and inspection

process and certification requirement. You will get an excellent working knowledge and ready to

work in storage tank industry.

Vertical storage tanks are extensively used for storage of crude oil , finished petroleum products e.g

HSD, Petrol, Kerosene, also water .

Vertical Storage tanks are designed ,manufactured and inspected as

per API 620 and API 650 , can be fixed cone roof or floating roof ;

primarily field constructed while small ones can be built in factory

and transported to site. Modern method uses jacking system while

convention system of construction is still used in several part of the

world.

Long Seam SAW Pipes

Long seam saw pipes are extensively used in

pipeline industry for transportation of water, Oil

and Gas.

Conventional method uses “U”ing and “O”ing

process while modern method uses 3 Roll system.

Pipes are welded using SAW process internally

and externally, internally expanded, tested using

NDT methods and subsequently hydrostatically

tested as per API 5L requirement. We have

developed excellent videos to create a visual

effect on learning.
