Explain How Professionals Efficiently Handle New Construction Works

Technicians in the oil and gas industry efficiently handle new construction works by following strict standards. New construction in the oil and gas industry typically involves flow lines, sales lines, battery builds, and compressor stations. Flowlines are pipelines tied to a specific well. The sales pipeline delivers well production to an intermediate or terminal location. Battery builds are construction of a group of connected tanks that collect crude oil production from a well. Compressor stations are placed at intervals along a pipeline to house compressor units.

Construction companies for oil and gas facilities must be given a clear vision of a new construction project and work to set goals, priorities and general parameters. A well-defined initial design is imperative in order to define the budget and construction timeline. The construction contractor chosen for the job needs to be experienced and reliable, with a proven record of quality work. 

Professionals working to hire a contractor for new construction usually requests bids from general contractors, and ask for references. It is common to speak with previous clients to gain valuable insights. They will also want to know about potential subcontractors and make sure they are capable in their respective trades. Finally, before decisions are made about hiring a contractor for new construction, verifications of licensing, insurance and safety records are needed. 

Civil construction contractors frequently utilize locating, earthmoving, trucking and Hydrovac services as a popular option for new construction works. Hydrovac is an excavation-less type of trenching technology that uses pressurized water to loosen concrete or soil while simultaneously applying suction to remove debris. Hydrovac is essentially excavation by using pressurized water. The technology offers a significantly less environmental impact than conventional drilling methods. This increasingly popular technology has proven to be an extremely safe method of excavation around unknown subsurface utilities, and it is faster and more precise than traditional excavation methods. 

Hydrovac services are also safer and more manageable for construction teams. They are less likely to experience disruptions caused by excavation crews hitting pipes. Non-destructive digging speeds up excavation, cleanup and disposal of debris. Hydrovac also tends to be more cost-effective with fewer workers, less time, and fewer cubic yards of material. Year round pressurized water excavation can cut through hard or frozen surfaces eliminating delays due to weather conditions. One of the great benefits of Hydrovac is its cost. It tends to be more budget-friendly than traditional excavation methods.
