Thai petrochemicals and energy
Aggressive environments, strict owners, fixed shutdowns
Thailand's petrochemical and chemical industry is concentrated around Map Ta Phut in Rayong, with refineries, crackers, polymer and specialty chemical plants. At the same time the country is adding gas-fired power, biomass and solar capacity, and new energy storage.
These owners specify coating systems for C4–C5 environments, fire protection for hydrocarbon zones and full material traceability. They work through EPC contractors with tight shutdown and commissioning windows. Steel is the natural material, as long as the fabricator delivers the documents and the quality these projects require.
- Pipe racks, shelters and platforms fabricated to EPC drawings
- Coating systems for coastal and chemical exposure
- Intumescent fire protection where a fire rating is specified
- Material traceability and inspection records for every piece
Your challenges, our answers
What EPC contractors and plant owners ask us, and how we solve it
Challenge 02
Fire protection in process areas
Our answer
Intumescent paint applied in the factory or on site where the owner specifies a fire rating.
Challenge 03
Owner specifications and inspections
Our answer
Project specifications reviewed at the start; third-party inspection welcome at our factory.
Challenge 04
Shutdown and commissioning windows
Our answer
Fabrication reserved at order and shipped by area, so erection fits the shutdown plan.
Challenge 05
Traceability
Our answer
Mill certificates, heat numbers and inspection records traceable to each marked piece.
Challenge 06
Mixed scopes
Our answer
Pipe racks, platforms, stairs, shelters and buildings supplied in one package.
