Fabrication and Welding Services

Piping and structural fabrication supported by certified facilities, qualified personnel, and welding procedures for a wide range of materials.

Fabrication That Fits the Work

Industrial fabrication must do more than match a set of dimensions. The finished work must align with the drawings, material specification, applicable code, welding requirements, inspection plan, documentation needs, and schedule established for the project.

NSA coordinates piping and structural fabrication through certified facility resources and qualified personnel. By bringing fabrication, welding procedures, material capabilities, quality requirements, and project communication together through one local point of contact, NSA helps clients organize work around the needs of the component, system, and operating environment.

Materials and Quality Control

Different metals and service conditions require the appropriate welding procedure, qualified personnel, consumables, preparation methods, material controls, and inspection requirements. NSA’s established service scope includes procedures for carbon steel, low-temperature carbon steel, 316 stainless steel, 6Mo stainless steel, 904L stainless steel, duplex, and super duplex materials.

NSA works with clients to review drawings, specifications, material requirements, applicable codes, welding procedures, inspection and testing needs, traceability, deliverables, and schedule before fabrication begins. This coordinated review helps establish a clear work package and align the facility, personnel, materials, quality controls, and documentation with the required scope.

Strong fabrication begins with clear requirements and controlled execution. NSA coordinates certified facilities, qualified personnel, suitable welding procedures, material controls, and quality documentation around each piping or structural scope.
Fabrication Capabilities

NSA provides coordinated access to piping and structural fabrication supported by a range of material-specific welding procedures. Each requirement is reviewed individually so the facility, qualified personnel, procedure, material handling, inspection, testing, and documentation can be matched to the governing project requirements.

  • Piping fabrication — Fabrication support for applicable piping components and assemblies based on the drawings, material, dimensions, service requirements, welding procedure, inspection plan, and governing code.
  • Structural fabrication — Shop fabrication support for applicable structural components and assemblies using qualified personnel and procedures suited to the material and project requirements.
  • Carbon and low-temperature carbon steel — Welding procedures for applicable carbon-steel and low-temperature carbon-steel piping or structural requirements.
  • Stainless and high-alloy materials — Welding procedures for applicable 316 stainless steel, 6Mo stainless steel, and 904L stainless steel requirements.
  • Duplex and super duplex — Fabrication and welding support using applicable qualified procedures and material controls for duplex and super duplex requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of fabrication does NSA support?

NSA coordinates piping and structural fabrication for applicable offshore, energy, and industrial requirements. The final service approach depends on the drawings, component or assembly, material, dimensions, quantity, governing code, welding procedure, inspection requirements, location, and schedule.

What materials can be welded?

NSA’s established service scope identifies procedures for carbon steel, low-temperature carbon steel, 316 stainless steel, 6Mo stainless steel, 904L stainless steel, duplex, and super duplex. The specific grade, product form, thickness, diameter, joint configuration, welding process, and qualified procedure must be confirmed for each scope.

Is fabrication completed in a CWB-certified facility?

NSA coordinates fabrication through a facility identified as CWB certified and supported by qualified personnel. The current certification, applicable standard and division, scope, welding procedures, personnel qualifications, and any separate piping-code requirements are confirmed for each project.

What quality documentation can be provided?

The required documentation package can be coordinated around the project specification and may include applicable drawings, material records, welding procedures, personnel qualifications, inspection or test reports, non-conformance records, and final turnover documentation. Exact deliverables are agreed before fabrication begins.

What information should I provide when requesting a fabrication quote?

Where available, provide drawings, specifications, material grades, dimensions, quantities, applicable codes, welding requirements, inspection or testing requirements, documentation needs, delivery location, and required completion date. This helps NSA review feasibility and coordinate the appropriate facility and resources.
