Stop Work Authority of the Month Award Port Neches, Texas – Congratulations to James Vallery, who received the Stop Work Authority of the Month award for July 2022. Vallery and his crew were performing a pre-job walk down when he smelled an odor, so he stopped the work and communicated it to operations.

The area was cleared, and a sniff test was performed, determining a small liquid propane leak. Operations then repaired the leak, sniffed the area again, and work was able to commence under normal work authorization.

Vallery joined Turner Industries in May 2022 and works under the leadership at Cheniere.

Great job, James!

Medical ID: A Life-Saving Feature on Your Phone Medical ID helps first responders access your critical medical information from the Lock screen, without needing your passcode. They can see information like allergies and medical conditions as well as who to contact in case of an emergency.

“This is a huge help to us in Safety when an employee has a medical crisis on-site. It is also very valuable to share with our families, particularly older folks,” said Construction Safety and Health Director Derryl Gaspard. “We are finding that most of our employees are not aware of this important feature on their phones.”

Employees typically spend more time at work than they do with their families. Therefore, personal medical conditions and resulting emergency situations are more likely to occur during work hours. In a medical crisis, response time is critical, so quick access to medications and conditions saves time and lives.

Information that can be entered: • Name

• Allergies & Reactions

How to access Medical ID on a Locked iPhone X, XS, XR, iPhone 11 or higher 1. On a locked phone, touch the screen and the “Enter Passcode” image will appear.

PROJECT LIST & DESCRIPTION

Turner Industries Starts Work on Vertex Energy Renewable Diesel Project Turner Industries has been selected by Vertex Energy as the mechanical general contractor for their renewable diesel conversion project in Mobile, Alabama. This project is designed to modify an existing hydrocracker to produce renewable diesel fuel and is expected to conclude by the first quarter of 2023. Upon completion, the refinery expects to commence production of approximately 8,000 - 10,000 barrels per day (bpd) of renewable diesel, with production volumes anticipated to subsequently ramp up to approximately 14,000 bpd.

Renewable diesel is produced from organic waste and vegetable oils and is a sustainable, fungible replacement for petroleum-based diesel fuel.

While California remains the primary market for domestically produced renewable diesel, given the economic benefits of its use under the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard, other states are expected to follow suit, creating significant, incremental demand during the next decade.

Once operable, the converted hydrocracking unit will be capable of processing a wide range of feedstocks.

Turner Industries will provide fabrication, mechanical, scaffold, paint, insulation, specialty services, and heavy haul and lifting. Pipe and structural steel fabrication will be done at Turner’s Port Allen and Decatur shops. Turner’s construction group will work alongside the nested maintenance and turnaround groups during the pre-turnaround and turnaround phases. There are currently 50 employees on site performing civil work. At its peak, Turner expects to have approximately 200 personnel on site.

“As the world looks for low carbon solutions, Vertex Energy is leading the way in energy transition with its Renewable Diesel Conversion Project. We are excited to be part of such a great team made up by Vertex, Worley, Hargrove, and Turner Industries,” said Turner Senior Vice President of Construction Carlos Guidry.

“We have some very strong leaders within this group who take the safety of our employees to heart. Our employees have bought into the ‘Safety First’ work culture and it definitely shows,” said Turner Site Manager Ryan Beeson.

“I truly appreciate how each and every one of the Turner team has taken the idea of safety and claimed it to be their own right and responsibility.

It is because of that attitude that you each continue to go home the way you came to work,” said Olin Freeport Site Maintenance Director Al Cagle.

Turner Industries currently has 475 employees on site who perform maintenance, capital projects, and specialty services.

Turner has done a fantastic job and I cannot be any happier. Thank you for everything you and the team do; it doesn’t go unnoticed,” said Shell’s William Turney.

“SWS’ Quinton Vaughn and his QC team were able to deliver near-perfect execution, finished ahead of schedule, and maintained a zero-incident event.

Part of Turner Industries’ success has always been to expand its services based on clients’ needs and the evolution of technology. The same goes for Turner Specialty Services (TSS), which provides a variety of specialty service offerings including Environmental, Industrial, and Non-Destructive Examination (NDE).

TSS’ foundation began decades ago because of the late Bert Turner’s vision of creating a “One Solution” approach for clients throughout the U.S. The company’s industrial cleaning services began in the 1990s, but as clients’ needs evolved, TSS continued to expand its equipment, adding hydro blasting pumps, vacuum trucks, and other various automated equipment applications every year.

Today, TSS is using robotics, automated tools, and drones and has assembled a large rope access team capable of performing both NDE and mechanical rope access services.

In this issue of Turner Industries Company Magazine, we will explore the services of TSS’ Industrial Services, specifically industrial cleaning.

16 FALL 2 0 2 2

T U R N E R I N D U S T R I E S Company Magazine

The Right Service for Your Cleaning Job Industrial cleaning is the process and act of cleaning for both hazardous and non-hazardous industrial areas, equipment, and materials in locations such as refineries, chemical plants, paper mills, power plants, and other types of facilities. There are many different applications/services to utilize when it comes to industrial cleaning.

HYDRO BLASTING Hydro blasting uses a high volume of water at a high pressure to clean surfaces or equipment.

Based on the jobsite’s conditions and the needs of the client, TSS tailors its hydro blasting response to the most effective and efficient solutions. The company performs hydro blasting on exchangers; pipes and drains; concrete surfaces; tanks, vessels, and drums; boilers and furnaces; towers and silos; and trays, valves, and other components.

Hydro blasting is accomplished using various types of equipment with different combinations of volume and pressure. Dieselpowered pumps, lances, tips, surface cleaners, and other accessories all factor into what equipment is needed for the assigned job.

THE RIGHT SERVICE FOR YOUR CLEANING JOB VACUUM SERVICES Vacuum services involve the use of specialized trucks or trailers to remove hazardous and non-hazardous materials from equipment or property. Examples of vacuum services include wet/dry solid removal, liquid removal, material with hydrocarbons, units with scrubber capabilities, hydro excavation, and sewer cleaning applications.

TANK CLEANING SERVICES Tank cleaning services can span the project’s complete lifecycle. TSS’ tank cleaning capabilities are extensive — from complete project planning and centrifuge setup to robotic sludge removal, solid waste management, de-gassing, and vapor recovery. TSS handles small routine jobs as well as complex, highvolume projects, and its experience encompasses every tank design and type of material: crude, finished products, petrochemical feedstock, black oil, asphalt, wastewater, sour water, and more.

CHEMICAL CLEANING SERVICES Chemical cleaning services use the form of vapor-phasing cascading, foam, or circulation with the proper chemistry to eliminate deposits and scaling and maintain the integrity of the system being cleaned.

Chemical cleaning services include acid treatment for scale removal, de-gassing services, neutralization services, pre-operational cleaning services, and organic deposit removal.

Automation = Innovation Turner’s commitment to continually adapt and utilize the latest in industrial cleaning technologies allows its clients to benefit from a safe, efficient, and dependable solution. Automation has led to all sorts of innovation throughout the industrial cleaning sector, and TSS owns automated equipment from leading manufacturers and partners with them regularly.

EFFICIENCY Using automated cleaning equipment is much more efficient, consistent, and thorough than manual methods. There is less likelihood for the work to fail inspection due to human error, and this eliminates re-work that has plagued jobs with downtime in the past. In most cases, automated equipment exceeds the inspection benchmark upon the first inspection. When the laborer/field technician is operating a machine instead of manual manipulation, that person is less prone to fatigue, and an alert technician is more productive and safer.

The benefits of automated equipment are also seen in extended run times and greater heat transfer of process equipment cleaned by automated means. The more complete the fouling is removed from a surface, the longer it takes new fouling to accumulate.

In many scenarios, an application-specific machine can deliver high-pressure water to locations not ergonomically or physically possible by humans. Better stated, machines can manipulate hardware in ways that people cannot. Machines can handle high-pressure water at larger volumes than humans, so a single tool can outperform a person. Examples of these machines include rotating hose devices, flex lance/hose feeders, and 3-D tank cleaning heads.

F A L L 2 0 2 2 19

What’s Next for TSS? TSS is continuing to invest in its two most valuable resources: people and equipment. The company is training its technicians and supervisors to operate the latest, innovative technology and stay safe while doing so. TSS is also consistently investing in equipment that will bring the most value to its clients.

TSS has invested an average of $3 million each year for the past five years to upgrade and replace its current equipment inventory. This investment has allowed the company to expand its automation capabilities and ensure the equipment is adequate and reliable for everyday use.

TSS is also continuing to integrate with Turner’s Maintenance

“With our best practices and state-of-the-art technology, equipment, and experience, TSS is set for future success. Whether it’s on a maintenance, project, or turnaround basis, we can meet our clients’ needs,” said Turner Specialty Services – Industrial Vice President Jimmy Watkins.

EMPLOYEE PROFILE

Annie Scheumack Time with Turner: 3 Years Current Title: Accounts Payable Assistant Supervisor

Annie Scheumack believes when you do something in life, you should go all in at 100 percent. She joined Turner Industries in 2019, working in the accounts payable department in vendor relations. In the summer of 2020, she became a vendor relations representative, and then last summer, was promoted to her current position of accounts payable assistant supervisor.

When Annie isn’t at work, she enjoys spending time with her family and is an avid reader. She is also passionate about her alma mater, Texas A&M University.

“My husband and I both graduated from Texas A&M University,” Scheumack said. “Our love for Texas A&M and desire to positively impact other Aggies runs deep. About six years ago, we decided it was our turn to give back to the university. We had a scholarship set up to assist Aggies interested in joining the Corps of Cadets. The scholarship started this fall and benefits a freshman cadet. My husband and I are proud and humbled to be able to help incoming Aggies get their start in Aggieland.”

A Quick Q & A with Annie Why was Turner a great fit for you? Before I joined Turner, I actually had no experience in this industry. My background is in education, but the people here saw potential in me. Turner gave me a chance to change my career path and do something different. I’m so grateful for that opportunity and to be at Turner.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever received? If you’re wrong, admit it. If you’re not, then don’t.

Do you have a favorite quote? “Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you’re right.” — Henry Ford What are the top three highlights of your life so far? My marriage to my husband, Chris, of 23 years and the birth of our two boys, Henry (7) and Sid (17). I love the trips we have been able to take with our older son and look forward to continuing the tradition with our younger one. I also treasure the times that all four of us are able to sit down and share a meal together. Our older son is a high school senior, so those times are already few and far between and about to be even more rare.

BITS AND BYTES Turner’s New Custom Application Streamlines RFI-FCO Processes Request for Information (RFI) and Field Change Order (FCO) documents are commonly utilized throughout the industry. However, the nature of the documents and related processes varies greatly among sites, customers, and other disciplines. The supporting documentation may be paper forms or editable PDFs. While at other times, a job task or status update may be strictly communicated via email.

To help streamline communication, share information, and keep reportable data in a central location, Turner Industries has developed a custom-built RFI-FCO application. This application is standardizing the RFI and FCO processes both within the company and with our clients.

“This application allows the applicable levels of management to get the information we need to make informed decisions in a timely manner,” said Internal Audit Director Michael Schoen. “From an internal auditing perspective, we will be able to monitor the status of pending RFIs/FCOs in ‘real-time.’ The timely nature of this information will provide our senior management the opportunity to proactively discuss any open items with the client(s) that are awaiting approval and/or clarification.”

The RFI-FCO application offers a customizable dashboard with filtering, sorting, and audit history. The application also captures site logistics, responsible parties, change orders, and cost totals.

“It assists with on-the-job organization and facilitates efficient communication both internally among our employees and externally with customers,” said Project Controls Vice President Andrew McCracken. “Customers that do not have their own solution are able to access data at a central location and communicate during the course of a job more efficiently.”

Internal and external users can approve, send messages, and add their own attachments. There’s even a smartphone option for both internal and external users as well.
