Pipe welding is a process that joins two or more pipes together using welding techniques. Welding techniques used for pipes include ARC welding processes including MIG welding and TIG welding. Some make a distinction between pipe welding and pipeline welding, with pipe welding relating to metal pipes at plants and refineries and pipeline welding referring to those used to transport gas, water, oil and other liquids over many miles.
Pipe and pipeline welders undertake welding jobs in the construction industry, at oil and gas fields, in the water industries, fabrication shops and nuclear power stations, among others. Working to connect new pipes or repair old ones, pipe welding is generally performed to conform with relevant codes and standards.
Our core welding personnels are accustomed to challenging and rugged work environments, and they complete each task with safety, speed and accuracy. We empower our pipe welders to become full team members, engaging with clients and helping develop solutions throughout the course of a project. Through rigorous hiring and training standards, we maintain a core workforce of exceptionally skilled and motivated welders who are able to support our clients’ needs.
Our welders are tested per American Welding Society standards, and their experience is tracked from job to job via PWS’ in-house WeldTrac program. They are versatile in the use of Stick, MIG, TIG and Flux core welding techniques and can weld various components in flat, vertical, or overhead positions.
