Q1: What does BCCK’s Fabrication Division deliver beyond NRU equipment?
BCCK provides end-to-end custom fabrication for energy and industrial applications, including skid assemblies, ASME pressure vessels, structural steel, cold boxes, and complex pipe systems. Our integrated approach combines advanced manufacturing, rigorous quality control, and disciplined project management to deliver code-compliant, field-ready packages on schedule and on budget.
Q2: What capabilities set your facility apart?
- 50,000 sq. ft. of code fabrication space across three shops
- Structural shop with dual 15-ton cranes (35-foot hook height)
- Pipe/assembly shop with 55 tons of total crane capacity (22-foot height)
- Vessel shop with 22,500 sq. ft. and >150-ton lifting capacity
- Flow Mach 4 waterjet cutting up to 12-inch thickness, 10’x12’ sheets, .001” tolerance
These assets enable precision, repeatability, and execution of large, complex modules.
Q3: Which industry standards and certifications do you meet?
We fabricate to ANSI, ASME, ASTM, AWS, AISC, API, and NEC where applicable. Our Fabrication Division (NG Resources Corporation) holds ASME “U” Stamp and National Board “R” Stamp authorization for pressure vessels and is certified to ISO 9001:2015.
Q4: What types of equipment and systems do you fabricate?
- Skid assemblies (dehydration, amine, LACT, pump and piping skids)
- ASME pressure vessels (CS/SS; new builds and repairs)
- Cold boxes and columns/tray towers
- Structural steel, platforms, and pipe racks
- NGL storage tanks
- Process packages (CO2/H2S removal, DeOxo units)
- Slug catchers, 3-phase separators, pulsation bottles, air receivers
- Pipe fabrication in carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum
Q5: How do you ensure quality and compliance?
Quality is embedded in our QMS aligned to ISO 9001:2015:
- Mill Test Reports (MTRs) and full material traceability
- ASME Section IX welder qualifications (1-G through 6-G), WPS/PQR control
- Radiographic inspection, hydro/pneumatic pressure testing, and coating QA
- Documented inspection and test plans (ITPs) and weld mapping
- Final turnover packages with all certifications, test records, and data books
Q6: What advanced technologies improve precision and throughput?
- High-tolerance waterjet cutting for complex profiles and heavy sections
- Automated coping/beveling for structural shapes and pipe
- Heavy-lift capabilities for large vessel shells and assembled skids
- Dimensional control and fit-up verification to minimize rework and field adjustments
Q7: How does BCCK manage schedule certainty and cost control?
We leverage one-piece flow where practical, robust critical path management, and synchronized procurement:
- Early BOM lock and vendor alignment to secure long-lead items
- Real-time progress reporting and earned value tracking
- Fabrication sequencing aligned to shipping and site installation windows
- Standardized tie-points and lift plans to reduce field hours and risk
Q8: How do you coordinate with engineering and construction teams?
We integrate upfront with engineering to finalize drawings, weld details, and test criteria, and we provide:
- Constructability input (lift studies, access, modular breakpoints)
- Pre-shipment FATs to validate functionality and interfaces
- Shipping prep and protection plans to preserve coating and tolerances
- Site-ready documentation for rapid installation and commissioning
Q9: What project management support can clients expect?
From specification review to delivery, our team provides:
- Clear scopes, deliverables, and ITPs
- Schedule baselines with critical milestones
- Cost visibility and change control
- Single-point accountability across design, fab, test, and logistics
Q10: How does your approach reduce total installed cost (TIC)?
- Modularization minimizes field labor and weather exposure
- Precision fabrication limits rework and accelerates tie-ins
- Pre-tested packages shorten commissioning and startup durations
- Optimized logistics reduce handling, crane time, and site congestion
Q11: Where do you ship and how are logistics handled?
We deliver anywhere in the U.S. and coordinate international shipments via freight forwarders. Heavy-haul planning, crating, and preservation are included to ensure equipment arrives ready for installation.
Q12: What outcomes can owners expect?
We offer code-compliant, high-quality fabrication with complete documentation, ensuring predictable schedules and reduced field hours. Our use of durable materials, advanced coatings, and superior weld quality lowers lifecycle costs while delivering faster mechanical completion and higher startup reliability.
Q13: How do we get started?
Share your specifications, codes, material requirements, and schedule targets. We’ll provide a detailed proposal with scope, ITPs, timeline, pricing, and logistics—ready to move from design to fabrication with confidence.
