Pipe Cold Cutting Services in Al Jubail

Jubail Industrial City is one of the largest petrochemical and refining hubs in the region, with SABIC affiliates, export refineries, fertilizer and metals plants packed along the Gulf coast. Salt-laden air and high humidity attack carbon steel, so corrosion under insulation and pitted flange faces are routine findings during turnarounds. Large complexes here run strict permit, gas-test and isolation systems, and contractor crews are expected to fit into tightly scheduled shutdown windows.

In Jubail, cold cutting is most often needed during turnarounds, when corroded process lines, pipe-rack sections and cooling water headers are replaced next to units that are still live. Spark-free cutting lets that work continue without stopping neighbouring equipment, and bevelling in the same set-up keeps welders busy instead of waiting for grinding.

Our pipe cold cutting services in Al Jubail are planned with your operations and safety teams and carried out under your permit-to-work.

Many cold cutting jobs continue after the cut: damaged flanges on the old line can be restored with flange facing, and the finished tie-in can be proven by hydrotesting before it goes back into service.
