Fabricated Spool Manufacturing Process

Controlled Shop Fabrication

Fabricated Spools are generally produced through a structured fabrication process that ensures dimensional accuracy, weld integrity, and compliance with project specifications.

Shop fabrication allows critical operations to be carried out under controlled conditions before the spool reaches the installation site. Typical manufacturing steps include:

  • Material identification and traceability
  • Pipe cutting and end preparation
  • Bevelling and edge preparation
  • Fit-up and dimensional alignment
  • Welding according to qualified procedures
  • Visual and dimensional inspection
  • Non-destructive testing where specified
  • Post-weld heat treatment when required
  • Pressure testing where applicable
  • Surface preparation, painting, or coating
  • Final marking and documentation

Quality Control and Inspection of Fabricated Spools

Dimensional Accuracy and Weld Integrity

The quality of Fabricated Spools depends on both material control and fabrication accuracy. Incorrect dimensions can create alignment problems during field installation, while poor weld quality can affect pressure containment and service life.

Typical inspection requirements may include:

  • Material Test Certificate verification
  • PMI where required
  • Weld visual inspection
  • Radiographic testing
  • Ultrasonic testing
  • Magnetic particle or liquid penetrant testing
  • Dimensional inspection
  • Hydrostatic or pneumatic testing where specified
  • Final documentation and traceability records
