M MADE TO EXACTING SPECIFICATIONS IN OUR SHOP OR IN THE FIELD.


MANUFACTURING At Loenbro, we understand that every project has its challenges, including the need for specialty components. As experienced fabrication experts, our certified welders have the ability to construct those components to exacting specifications whether in the field or in one of our five regional manufacturing locations.

Loenbro welders hold AWS certification and are experienced in the welding of structural steel, pipelines, sheet metals and refinery piping. Certified welding inspectors are on staff to verify compliance with AWS protocols.

Loenbro’s manufacturing services eliminate the need to order and wait for specialty components, resulting in fewer delays and increased efficiencies. And ultimately, that means bringing the project in on schedule and within budget.

• Compressor and Pumping Station Construction • Meter and Regulator Station Construction • Piping Skids • Storage Facility Construction • Structural Steel - Fabrication, delivery and erection - Pipe supports, shoes and guides - Platforms, handrails, decking and stairs

“Two of the most important things to me when it comes to selecting an inspection company are depth of knowledge and willingness to do what needs to be done to complete a job. Loenbro has been able to deliver both of those, and more. They have conducted phased array, visual, MT and PT inspections for CHS on a number of occasions, and have played a key role in getting projected done ahead of schedule. They’re flexible, understand our needs and are easy to work with—a combination that’s not easy to find out there.” - MIKE SCHMIDT, Maintenance Engineer, CHS

APPLICATIONS

SPECIALTY MATERIALS

• Aluminum • Stainless Steel • Iconel 800 • 1.25%, 5% and 9% Chrome Alloy


INSPECTION SERVICES Loenbro offers an extensive array of inspection services to meet the diverse needs of the many refineries, oil and gas companies in the Western U.S. Our inspectors have undergone intensive training and testing to ensure their ability to detect even the smallest imperfections and verify compliance with industry codes and regulations.

ASNT CERTIFICATIONS Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT)

• Allows for the detection of cracks, pits, holes or other flaws in the surface or subsurface of iron and steel pipes. Most commonly used for final and in-process inspection.

Dye Penetrant Testing (DPT)

• NDT process utilized for extended visual inspection of surface-breaking flaws on metal, plastics and other non-porous materials.

Ultrasonic Thickness Testing (UTT)

• Using high frequency energy, UTT scans, measures and monitors metal, welds, bolts, coatings and other materials for corrosion, cracks, flaws and imperfections. Requires access to only a single exterior surface, making it appropriate for in-field/in-process testing of pipes, storage containers and other vessels.

Ultrasonic Shear Wave Testing

• Because of its sensitivity, Shear Wave or Angled Beam Ultrasonic testing is effective in the detection and verification of cracks and fusion defects. Loenbro evaluates not only the weld, but also any materials located within the heat-affected zone.

VISUAL INSPECTION CERTIFICATIONS • AWS Certified Welding Inspector • API-570 Piping Inspection • API-510 Pressure Vessel Inspection • API-653 Storage Tank Inspection

INSPECTION DATA MANAGEMENT • Ultrapipe (inspection data management system for corrosion monitoring) • AutoCad Drafting (Intelligent AutoCad drawings that link to Ultrapipe)


DETECT EVEN THE SMALLEST IMPERFECTIONS.


P INSPECTIONS COMPLETED WITHOUT RADIATION HAZARDS OR NEED FOR SHUTDOWNS.


PHASED ARRAY TECHNOLOGY Loenbro was one of the first pipeline inspection companies in the west to offer phased array technology. Virtually eliminating potential radiation hazards and the need for system shutdowns, it is ideal for pipeline inspections in the field and in-process refinery systems. The benefits of phased array are many, including: • Faster inspection time • Higher-quality images than traditional radiography • Digitally generated images can be easily stored and transmitted • Software control of scan ensures accuracy • Greater flexibility for inspection of complex angles

WELDING The goal of any pipeline welder is to create bonds that can withstand the pressure of the oil, gas and water passing through them, as well as the extreme environments surrounding them. Doing it, however, requires more than just a torch and a tank. It requires extensive training and skill. At Loenbro, our AWS-certified welders have the experience needed to complete miles of 2” to 14” pipeline quickly and with extreme precision. We are results oriented, focused on delivering quality and consistency in every part of every project, and we have certified inspectors on staff to ensure compliance with all industry codes and standards. In addition, Loenbro project managers are some of the best in the oil and gas industry. They ensure your projects stay on schedule and that safety is always a top priority.

R-STAMP & U-STAMP CERTIFICATION

Loenbro is one of the few companies in Montana, Wyoming and the Dakotas that is R-Stamp and U-Stamp certified by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Inspectors and American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Pressure vessels bearing these stamps demonstrate compliance with ASME standards of construction and repair.

HEAT TREATING

The Loenbro team includes experts who specialize in heat treating pipes to extend weld life and reduce failure rates. Heat treating can be completed on the project site or in one of our facilities throughout the region.

APPLICATIONS

• Installation and Repair of Process Piping, Pressure Vessels and Tanks • Pipeline Construction • Pressure Pipe • Fabrication • Plant Maintenance • HVAC Systems • Industrial Plumbing • Boilers
