Health & Safety

Health & Safety issues affect us at two levels, firstly in our everyday working operations such as welding, cutting and site installation. Secondly we have professional Health & Safety considerations related to the long term integrity of our installations associated with issues such as material selection, corrosion, pipe joints, operational demands and pipe static electricity. We take all elements of health & safety control seriously and have a range of procedures and controls in place to address all requirements.

Working issues affecting our day to day operation include:

• Welding
• Pipe Cutting
• Control Of Noise
• Working At Heights
• Provision Of Welfare On Site
• Handling of Materials
• On Site Co-ordination

We understand the need to work in co-ordination with customers existing site health & safety practices and can work to develop appropriate site plans as required. All staff are similarly experienced with the requirements for reporting and general safety practices on site.

Professional health & safety requirements are generally covered either directly or in liaison with our customers and suppliers. For example, pipework is constructed in accordance with isometrics signed off by competent persons. Pressure tests are carried out to written procedures to confirm adequate containment at process conditions. Commissioning procedures are designed to ensure that installed pipework is inspected before use to identify any design faults that may have been introduced at the construction stage and to confirm suitability for use. As a professional operation we are aware of all health & safety requirements and will work with customers and suppliers to ensure that omissions are not made, such as inappropriate use of materials, inconsistent detailing or incomplete evidence of pressure tests to help ensure that faults are not left unchecked.
