Underwater Welding
Over the last 10 years underwater welding has progressed rapidly and has obtained greater client confidence due to the introduction of better welding electrodes, better training and a greater understanding of the factors that affect the weld quality produced.
Previously under water welding was a process for a last resort solution to an under water problem. Many successful projects have now been completed worldwide to put a different light on the subject. These ground breaking jobs have set new boundaries for future operations.
Here at RRI we have skilled technicians on our team who have the training and certification from Hydroweld, the world’s leader in this field. They have extensive knowledge and experience to complete the hardest of under water welding tasks. These people are not just welder/divers but engineers capable of offering excellent expert advice due to years of service as top side and under water welders.
The advantages of quality under water welding are extensive, giving another dimension to under water solutions.
Examples of where it is useful but not limited to:
- Structural repairs to platforms (cracks in members, blast damage etc.)
- Retro fitting of anodes to structures and vessels !to extend life
- Ship repair
- Pipe line repairs.
- Welding guides, frames, brackets to jackets.
The skilled welders who work at RRI are also experts in Brocco burning and have a depth of experience in some of the most difficult tasks imaginable.
Having these skills at our disposal gives us a definite advantage in the services that we offer.
Arrangements can be made to visit our facility in Douala to discuss projects. Demonstrations or test pieces of the job at hand can be performed there so as to give an accurate idea of what can be achieved.
