• Detailed Drawings: Full 2D and 3D designs provided for approval prior to fabrication.
  
  
• Code Compliance: Systems designed according to applicable standards, including API 1104, AGA Report No. 3, AGA Report No. 9, ASME B31.3, ASME B31.4, and ASME B31.8.
  
  

Material Selection and Construction

Circle B uses premium materials to ensure piping systems withstand operational and environmental demands:

• ASTM-certified carbon and stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance
  
  
• Precision grinding and honing of pipes for measurement-specific applications
  
  
• Supports, flanges, and fittings engineered to maintain system integrity and alignment
  
  
• Protective coatings and galvanization options available for harsh environmental conditions
  
  

Welding and Fabrication Expertise

All piping systems are fabricated by highly skilled, certified welders:

• ASME Section IX certified welders experienced in multiple welding processes
  
  
  • GMAW/FCAW: Efficient welding for carbon steel applications
    
    
  • GTAW (TIG) Stainless Steel: High-precision welding for stainless steel piping
    
    
  • SAW: Submerged arc welding for large-diameter or high-pressure systems
    
    
• In-house AWS Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) oversight
  
  
• Non-destructive examination (NDE) capabilities including radiographic, ultrasonic, and dye-penetrant inspections
  
  
• Third-party inspections available to ensure compliance with project specifications and regulatory requirements
  
  

Turnkey System Integration

Circle B piping fabrication goes beyond structural assembly to provide complete system integration:

• Meter Runs: Fully fabricated piping systems for orifice, ultrasonic, and Coriolis meters, including proper alignment, supports, and instrumentation integration.
  
  
• Flow Computers and Analyzers: Piping configured for seamless integration with control and measurement systems.
  
  
• Process Skids: Piping designed for skid-mounted installations to facilitate transport, deployment, and operational readiness.
  
  
• Control Valves and Regulators: Integrated into piping layouts to support precise process control and safety.
  
  
• Testing and Verification: Pressure tests, leak checks, and system validation prior to shipment.
  
  

Testing and Quality Assurance

Every piping system undergoes rigorous testing and quality checks to ensure operational reliability:

• Pressure testing to validate system integrity under operational conditions
  
  
• Verification of alignment and flow characteristics for measurement applications
  
  
• Inspection of welds and joints using NDE methods
  
  
• Compliance with API, ASME, AGA, and customer-specific standards
  
  
• Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) for systems integrated with measurement and control equipment
  
  

This quality-first approach ensures that every piping system shipped from Circle B is ready for immediate deployment.

Applications for Piping Fabrication

Circle B piping systems support a variety of applications:

• Measurement Piping: Accurate, code-compliant piping for orifice, ultrasonic, and Coriolis meters.
  
  
• Production Systems: Piping for gas lift, injection, and pump skid applications.
  
  
• Meter Stations: Integrated piping for flow measurement, gas analysis, and custody transfer points.
  
  
• Regulator Stations: Piping to support pressure regulation, safety valves, and process control.
  
  
• Pig Launchers & Receivers: Fabricated piping designed for pigging operations in pipelines.
  
  

These applications require precise design, high-quality materials, and certified welding to ensure operational safety, accurate measurement, and regulatory compliance.
