QuantiServ’s very experienced welding engineers are well equipped to carry out virtually any welding job on board a ship, in a power station, or in an industrial plant. This includes repair work as well as fabrication and installation jobs.

Our welders are qualified and certified to weld a wide range of materials in any setting. Some of the jobs that they carry out are small and straight-forward; others are very complex and comprehensive.

In the latter case, QuantiServ can offer end-to-end solutions that include:

  • Dismantling work
  • Initial assessment
  • Investigation of the reason for the damage (strain measurements, Finite Element Analysis (FEA)
  • Working out a Structural Repair Procedure (SRP) and/or design improvements
  • Planning and executing the work anywhere in the world
  • Post weld treatment (stress-relieve heat treatment and or/in-situ machining)

Case Studies

Here are two examples of structural repair on low-speed engines. The first case is straight forward, the second one is more complex.
