When a plant goes down and every hour costs big bucks, Turner Industries’ Specialized Welding Services (SWS) group kicks into high gear. One of the group’s key resources is its fabrication shop in Geismar, Louisiana, which handles shutdowns, turnarounds, and those middle-of-the-night emergency calls that keep plant managers awake.

The facility features 10 welding stations that can accommodate up to 12 welders per shift at peak capacity. Each station is equipped with industry-leading welding machines supporting GTAW, SMAW, GMAW, and RMD processes. The shop handles pipe sizes up to 48 inches indoors and 100 inches outdoors, working with all carbon and alloy materials while maintaining strict protocols to prevent cross-contamination.

This year alone, the facility has fabricated over 800 spools, totaling 11,227 feet of pipe and 2,125 welds. SWS has delivered critical support to clients across Louisiana, Texas, and Colorado, establishing itself as a trusted partner for industrial facilities throughout the U.S.

When a plant shutdown threatens millions in lost revenue, every hour counts. That’s when Turner’s SWS Geismar shop becomes the difference maker.
