Plant Expansion And Renovation
One of the most complex areas of construction work is that of the expansion and renovation of existing plants. This work requires detailed planning, careful coordination, attention to detail, and meticulous execution. In most cases, preparatory work is performed while the plant is running. Final installation work occurs during a planned plant shutdown of limited duration. SERCO Inc. prides itself on the successful completion of numerous plant expansions and renovations that were finished on time and within budget. When working on plant expansion and renovation and during turnarounds, safety takes top priority. SERCO Inc. has a rigorous safety program that includes safety audits, hazard identification, and safe working procedures. This safety program also includes training with the objective of achieving zero accidents, incidents, or injuries.
Mechanical fabrication
SERCO Inc. undertakes the mechanical fabrication of vessels, structures, and pipe work. This company has their ASME certification for the manufacture and repair of pressure vessels, boilers, and for the fabrication and assembly of pressure piping. The authority to register and apply the appropriate ASME mark to boilers, pressure vessels, and pressurized piping comes with their certification.
SERCO’s work includes the fabrication of steelwork, access platforms, stairways for facilities as well as steam piping, process piping, chemical piping, and air lines.
Erection
Erection of new equipment is a specialized skill requiring careful planning and detailed rigging knowledge. This skill often involves heavy lifts, the use of temporary support structures, and working over and around a running plant. SERCO's team carefully plans such work, confirming adequate safety margins are applied so that no incidents occur. Thoroughly trained, SERCO’s team applies safe work procedures, and uses fall protection when working in exposed positions. Typically, this work will involve the erection of pipe racks, running new piping, and the installation of new vessels and equipment using scaffolding and mobile cranes.
Electrical
SERCO Inc. offers a one stop contracting service, and their portfolio also includes electrical installation work. This company is experienced with the installation of new electrical distribution equipment, cable racks, and cabling. With a staff qualified to design and install electrical equipment for the hazardous areas found in the petrochemical industry, SERCO’s electrical team works closely with the erection team. This teamwork ensures service is properly coordinated to warrant successful completion.
Civil and concrete
Plant expansion and renovation requires additional facilities such as control room extensions, motor control centers, warehousing, and paving of plant areas and roads. Heavy equipment requires substantial concrete foundations. SERCO Inc. is equipped to excavate foundations, sink piles, and cast foundations for equipment and other civil structures in industrial facilities.
Coatings and finishes
The application of final protective coatings and finishes is a crucial aspect of plant renovation. SERCO's coatings team has wide experience in selecting and applying the correct coating for industrial plants and equipment. Typical applications include corrosion protection of plants, heat resistant coatings, color coding, and cosmetic finishes. Scope of work would include removal of old products, metal preparation, abrasive blasting if required, and the application of the new coating in accordance with manufacturer's specifications.
SERCO Inc. has extensive experience in the application and maintenance of thermal insulation for steam and condensate piping. This application and maintenance includes the removal of asbestos-containing insulation and its replacement with modern products.
