Overview

Fabrication & Welding by Ocean Connect FZE

In short: Ocean Connect FZE offers marine fabrication and welding in Dubai for vessels, barges and offshore units. Our qualified welders work in mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium on structural repairs, pipe spools, deck fittings, railings, foundations and custom marine structures, on board or in the workshop.

Marine welding must withstand vibration, corrosion and heavy loads. We follow approved welding procedures, use certified consumables and record every job so that the work can be inspected and accepted by surveyors.

Testing & inspection

Fabrication built for the marine environment

Steel and aluminium at sea face constant vibration, salt water and heavy loads. That is why marine fabrication needs the right material grade, the right welding procedure and careful inspection. We confirm these details before cutting begins and keep records of materials and consumables for every job.

Smaller items are made in the workshop and installed on board; larger structural repairs are carried out on the vessel under a hot-work permit with fire watch and gas-free certificates in place.

Typical fabrication and welding jobs

Common requests from ship owners, yards and offshore operators include:

Plate and frame renewals on hull and decks
Pipe spools and manifolds for ship systems

Can you fabricate from our drawings?

Yes. Send your drawings or a sketch with dimensions and material and we will quote for fabrication and installation.

Do you provide welding inspection and testing?

Yes. We coordinate non-destructive testing, hydrostatic and pressure tests, and surveyor attendance, and we include the results in the job report.

Can you fabricate parts if we only have photos or a damaged sample?

Yes. Our team can take measurements on board or reverse-engineer from a sample, then confirm dimensions and material with you before fabrication.
