KJ Can/Can-One USA
Project Gulf Can – Line 1 Piping Install
Project Description
DECCO was entrusted as the mechanical and process contractor to perform the piping fabrication and installation for KJ Can/Can-One USA’s new state-of-the-art production facility. DECCO implemented advanced quality control measures within its fabrication facility, aimed at ensuring that all prefabricated piping, spools, and related products meet the highest quality standards. This included comprehensive weld inspections and strict adherence to specifications such as square, plumb, and level. These standards were extended to Can-One’s project site by DECCO’s field management group who applied them consistently across all site activities and installations. This thorough and unified approach contributed significantly to the overall efficiency and durability of the installed systems.
DECCO dedicated significant time and resources, including extended hours and weekend work, to maximize large footage installations which maintained a proactive stance on the project’s schedule. DECCO utilized field manager look-a-heads to forecast activities a minimum of three weeks in advance, which allows them to strategically manage tools and equipment, staffing levels, and material sequencing. By providing direct project design for the project, DECCO successfully advanced the model from roughly 80% completion to fruition. This allowed DECCO to maximize the prefabrication of spools, reducing field hours and minimizing field welds during installation. DECCO was also instrumental in optimizing the routing of piping, offering insightful suggestions along with comprehensive support drawings and sketches.
Through meticulous planning and execution, DECCO ensured that the project’s progress went smoothly and efficiently, ultimately leading to successful outcomes for all stakeholders involved.
