Why steel

Built to your project specification, documented from mill to site

Guyana's offshore oil and gas development depends on onshore support: shore bases, laydown yards, warehouses, workshops, utility buildings and the steel that holds pipework and equipment. These projects are governed by operator and EPC specifications that set materials, welding, inspection, coatings and documentation.

World Steel fabricates structural steel to those specifications in our factory in Long An Province, Vietnam, and ships it to Guyana with the inspection records and material traceability your quality team needs. We review your specification before quoting and flag any deviation in writing.

What oil & gas clients get

  • Specification review before quotation, with deviations listed
  • Material certificates traced to each member
  • Inspection and test plan (ITP) agreed before fabrication
  • Coating systems selected for coastal and industrial exposure
  • Complete quality dossier shipped with the steel
  • Container and flat-rack planning for the long sea route

What we fabricate

Oil & gas structures we fabricate

Typical scopes for onshore support facilities and process areas. Offshore structures are outside our standard scope.

Pipe racks

Single- and multi-tier pipe racks, stick-built or modular, with cable tray supports and access walkways.

Equipment supports & skids

Steel frames and supports for pumps, tanks, compressors and electrical equipment.

Access & maintenance platforms

Platforms, stairs, ladders, handrails and gratings to the project's safety requirements.

Equipment shelters & utility buildings

Shelters, MCC and utility buildings, generator and compressor enclosures.

Shore-base warehouses & workshops

Laydown warehouses, pipe and materials storage, maintenance workshops.

Steel warehouses

Canopies, gantries & trestles

Loading canopies, pipe bridges, cable and pipe trestles.

Structural options for oil & gas facilities

The right option depends on the operator's specification, the site and the installation method.

OptionTypical useWhat to consider
Stick-built pipe rackLong runs on accessible sitesSimple to ship; more bolting and alignment on site
Modular pipe rackUnits pre-assembled with pipeworkLess site work; module size limited by shipping and lifting
Braced platform framesEquipment access and maintenanceGrating, handrail and toe-board details to the project standard
Portal-frame sheltersEquipment protection and utility buildingsVentilation, hazardous-area and fire requirements set by the designer
Clear-span warehousesLaydown, storage and workshopsCrane loads, door sizes and floor loads fixed early

Design values, load cases and hazardous-area requirements are set by the project specification and the engineer of record.

Design considerations

Engineered for Guyana conditions

Onshore oil and gas facilities in Guyana sit in a hot, humid and, near the coast, saline environment.

Coastal corrosion

Coating systems chosen for the exposure category in the specification, with hot-dip galvanizing or multi-coat paint systems as required.

Heavy tropical rainfall

Drainage of platforms and gratings, and roof drainage on shelters and warehouses.

Low-lying coastal land

Raised floor and plinth levels coordinated with the civil design on flood-prone sites.

Wind loads

Wind design to the standard named in the project specification Pending verification wind design basis per project.

Long supply route

Members sized and marked for containers or flat racks, with spare bolts packed.

Schedule pressure

Fabrication and shipping planned against the project's required on-site date.

Specification

Working to operator and EPC specifications

Send your specification package with the enquiry. Our engineers check materials, welding procedures, NDT, coatings, tolerances and documentation, and confirm what we can meet directly and what needs a deviation request or a third-party inspector.

Where the project requires an independent inspector or a specific qualification, we say so before quoting.

Typically reviewed

  • Material grades and certificate type
  • Welding procedures and welder qualifications Pending verification list of qualified welding procedures
  • NDT scope and acceptance criteria
  • Coating system, surface preparation and dry film thickness
  • Fabrication tolerances
  • Third-party inspection and hold points
  • Quality dossier contents and format

Before you request a quote

What to send us for an accurate quotation

The more of this information you can share, the faster and more accurate the quotation. Approximate figures are fine at enquiry stage; our engineers confirm everything with you before production.

Your checklist

  • Project specification package (structural, welding, coating, QA)
  • Layout drawings and pipe or equipment loads
  • Site location in Guyana and installation method
  • Required on-site date
  • Inspection and documentation requirements
  • Incoterms you want quoted (e.g. FOB Vietnam, CIF Georgetown)
