Key Challenges

Titanium is highly sensitive to atmospheric contamination during welding, so every weld required full inert gas shielding and trailing protection. Fabrication was carried out in a dedicated clean area, fully segregated from carbon steel work to prevent iron contamination. Holding dimensional accuracy on a large diameter, lightweight vessel also required careful control of heat input and handling throughout.

This project reflects our long standing experience with titanium and our ability to deliver reactive metal fabrication to a consistently high standard.
