We offer an all-inclusive range of customised orbitally welded subsea umbilical and hydraulic control line welding services and solutions carefully tailored to meet the needs of the customer and end client.
Our highly qualified personnel are fully committed to delivering clean, efficient results with every activity, to ensure a successful project outcome.
Small-bore hydraulic welding for oil and gas tubing
Diverse Welding Services are able to create robust, bespoke small-bore hydraulic and control line tube and piping systems for use with a variety of oil and gas manifolds, umbilicals and wellheads, according to clients’ individual specifications.
Our team of expert fabricators have proven experience and are proficient in all forms of the small bore tubing (SBT) manufacturing process; bend, cut, weld and install. Diverse Welding Services core fabrication range is using hydraulic tubing 6mm-25mm in diameter and thicknesses of 0.6mm-3.9mm.
We follow stringent processes to ensure all activities adhere to strict national industry guidelines including ISO, ASME IX, Norsok, NACE, API 6A and ASME B31.3. Our finished product internal cleanliness surpasses NAS Class 6 ratings when flushing and cleaning are required by the client’s application, process or specification.
All of the company’s procedures are tested, approved and documented in our detailed manufacturers’ data reports which provide our customers the assurance of premium-quality workmanship.
Orbital welding services for marine pipe networks
Our cutting-edge autogenous and wire-fed orbital welding equipment offers consistent, repeatable welds with detailed precision on pipework ranging from 3mm-250mm in outside diameter size.
Orbital processes facilitate the welding of materials that are otherwise difficult to join together manually and minimise the possibility for human error, while helping ensure every weld connection is cleanly presented and supplied with documentation and traceability assurance.
Our innovative technology affords the welder much greater control over a number of variables compared to traditional methods, including arc length, weld speed, pulse frequency and thermal conductivity, delivering consistently uniform and accurate results.
Orbital welding techniques are highly versatile and can be implemented when working with any highly alloyed material.
All our orbital welding procedures are carried out in accordance with DNV, NORSOK, ASME, ISO and Australian standards.
Subsea welding procedures for offshore sites
Diverse Welding Services regularly fabricates subsea products and umbilical connection systems using a wide range of materials such as stainless-steel UNS-S31603, Super Duplex UNS-S32750 and Inconel 625 UNS-NO6625.
The company is able to design, fabricate and install SBT hydraulic control and chemical injection lines for a variety of marine infrastructure, including:
- Drill centre and gas production manifolds
- Subsea equipment control systems
- Wellhead equipment
- Control tubing on jumper spools and leads
- Umbilical clamping systems and covers
Diverse Welding Services is capable of completing turnkey product packages for our clients due to the recent introduction of our newly specified oil and gas engineering workshop. The combination of our hydraulic control system fabricators and our structural subsea fabrication team ensure we provide a quality assured bespoke product for our clients.
DWS has completed structural deployment frames, test plates and subsea umbilical cradles with integrated control systems to ASME D1.1, AS1554 with full fabrication quality assurance documentation. DWS has the capacity to design, fabricate and complete FATs and SITs in conjunction with the client to meet the requirements of any end-user specifications.
We provide dependable, expert maintenance support services both on and off site, and our workshop is stocked with extensive service equipment to ensure Diverse Welding Services is ready and able to service its clients on time-critical shutdown and repair activities when required.
