Pipe installation services
We support pipe installation in shipbuilding and industrial projects. The agreed scope can include preparing, fitting and assembling pipe sections to technical documentation and the conditions at the work site.
Scope of cooperation
Drawings and preparation
Working with installation drawings, isometrics and P&ID diagrams. Agreeing pipe routes, work sequences and component preparation for the designated area aboard a vessel or within a facility.
Fitting and installation
Fitting sections to structures and available space, bending and installing pipe components. Materials, diameters and wall thicknesses are specified for the individual project.
Connections and coordination
Preparing and agreeing component connection methods, including TIG/MAG tack welding where specified. Coordination with engineers and other trades helps manage interfaces between installation stages.
Installation shaped around the project
Yacht projects involve restricted installation spaces and several trades working aboard the same vessel. Industrial projects start with the process layout and the client’s documentation. Before delivery, we therefore define the boundaries of the assigned scope and its interfaces with other contractors.
The scope may involve carbon or stainless steel, copper or plastics. Small-bore work, such as 6–28 mm piping, requires specific agreement on bending and fitting precision. Connection methods, required qualifications and inspection arrangements are confirmed before accepting the assignment.
What to include in a piping enquiry
Send drawings or an installation description, materials and diameters, the work location and intended dates. State whether you need component preparation, installation, connections or several stages. Details of work-area access, material supply and expected acceptance checks help us discuss delivery arrangements.
Questions about pipe installation
Does the scope include welding?
TIG/MAG tack welding may form an agreed preparation or installation stage. The full welding scope, materials and required qualifications must be specified separately; they are not automatically included in every project.
Can we outsource part of an installation?
Yes. An enquiry can cover a defined area, pipe section or installation stage. We agree its boundaries, input documentation and handover to subsequent activities.
