Bolt Torquing Services in Ras Tanura
Ras Tanura combines a major refinery with one of the largest crude oil export terminals in the world. That means large-bore piping, marine loading lines and tank connections where a leak is both a safety and an environmental problem.
Bolting for refinery and terminal piping
The Ras Tanura peninsula holds refining units, extensive tank farms and the loading facilities that send crude and products to tankers. Much of the piping is large diameter and runs between tank fields, pump stations and jetties, often in a marine environment where corrosion attacks studs and nuts quickly.
Our bolt torquing services in Ras Tanura focus on getting even load into big joints. Large-bore flanges with many studs are where hydraulic tensioning pays off, because several studs can be loaded at once and friction does not distort the result. Where corrosion has seized the nuts, we split them rather than heat them, protecting the flange faces.
In the refinery itself we support turnaround work on exchangers, columns and process lines, with the same joint register, calculated loads and close-out records that we use everywhere else.

A single supervisor coordinates bolting, cutting, machining, purging and testing for the Ras Tanura job.
Bolt torquing in Ras Tanura: questions we are asked
Do you have experience with large terminal flanges?
Yes. Large-bore flanges are where we usually recommend multi-tool hydraulic tensioning, which gives a more even load than tightening one stud at a time.
Can you deal with heavily corroded studs?
Yes. We remove seized nuts with hydraulic nut splitters and replace corroded studs, then assemble with fresh fasteners and the specified lubricant.
Can you open a line on the terminal safely?
We work under your permit system. Our crews can purge with nitrogen and cold cut the pipe, so no hot work is needed to open the line.
