Oil & Gas Refining Industry

The oil and gas refining sector demands consistent performance from every structural and mechanical component. Steel fabrication used in refineries must withstand high pressures, elevated temperatures, corrosive substances, and demanding operating cycles. Fabrication Services, Inc. has decades of experience supporting these requirements with precision-formed, heavy-duty components built for long service life and compliance with industry codes.

As experienced oil and gas metal fabricators, we support a wide range of refinery infrastructure with formed, welded, and rolled assemblies made from high-grade steel. Whether it’s structural supports or pressure-rated shells, our team delivers components that meet critical tolerances and specifications.

Experience in Oil and Gas Metal Fabrication Services

Since 1970, Fabrication Services, Inc. has built a reputation for reliability and consistency in heavy steel work. Our oil and gas metal fabrication services support operations in upstream extraction, midstream transport, and downstream refining. From plate rolling and heavy forming to welding and assembly, our team is skilled in producing parts that hold up in refinery and petrochemical plant environments.

We are certified to ASME Section VIII, Division 1, qualifying us to fabricate components that meet rigorous pressure vessel standards. Each project is handled by qualified fabricators with extensive experience in steel forming and fabrication.

Commonly Fabricated Components

We supply a wide range of formed and welded parts used throughout refining facilities, including:

  • Pressure vessel shells
  • Heat exchanger bodies
  • Structural pipe supports
  • Skid-mounted steel platforms
  • Storage tank components
  • Large-diameter ducting and cones

Our shop is equipped to handle thick plate rolling, complex multi-bend parts, and welded assemblies that require consistent structural strength.

Materials and Capabilities

We fabricate using carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steels commonly specified in oil and gas applications. These materials provide the corrosion resistance, temperature tolerance, and strength required in process-heavy environments.

With large-capacity press brakes, plate rolls, and welding stations, we handle heavy plate jobs with precision. Many components used in this sector require non-standard geometries, rolled diameters, and edge prep to support proper field fit-up. We are fully prepared to meet those needs.

Industry Applications and Clients

Our fabricated parts are used in major refining operations, processing plants, and terminal facilities. Components we build are used to support process piping, contain pressurized gas or liquid, and provide access or support for heavy industrial equipment.

Fabrication Services, Inc. has supplied steel components to well-known names in the energy sector, including ExxonMobil. Our ability to meet exacting quality requirements and tight turnaround times has helped build lasting relationships with major operators and contractors.
